Resurfaced footage shows Donald Trump's 'real laugh' and people can't believe their ears

Years before Trump became president, he was racing around in a car with Mario Andretti

A resurfaced scene has revealed Donald Trump’s laugh and for many people on social media, it has come as quite a shock.

Years before the businessman became the 45th and 47th President of the United States, Trump hosted The Apprentice and The Celebrity Apprentice.

One moment from the latter’s season five finale has gone viral because of its opening scene, which shows Trump getting into a race car with Formula 1 legend Mario Andretti.

“Don’t worry, I won’t mess up your hair,” Andretti jokes as he revs the engine.

In the 2012 episode, Trump gets into the back of a race car as Andretti whizzes around the streets of New York, with the man who would go on to become president being filmed chuckling in the back of the car.

Years after the scene was aired, some people are only just discovering it now. It was shared by an X (formerly Twitter) user who posted it in March of this year with the caption: “Good news, I’ve found a Celebrity Apprentice clip that has haunted me for 13 years.”

One viewer on X replied: “The acting was bad but the laugh at the end was real.”

Another person replied: “He actually chucked and gave a genuine smile. I’ve never seen that from him.”

While the X user who brought the clip back into the public eye replied: “I was just thinking that I don’t think I’ve ever seen him actually laugh.”

“Never seen him laugh like that,” someone else quipped.

While another viewer remarked: “Uh, this is actually a big deal. It’s the first clip I’ve ever seen where we actually see him do a real laugh. A human laugh. This is wild.”

In other news, Trump and his former pal Elon Musk had a very public spat after the Tesla founder criticised the president's 'big beautiful bill'.

"I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination," Musk complained on X. "Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it."

Trump said in response to this that he was 'very disappointed in [Musk]', which then lead to the tech boss dropping a bombshell claim on X that Trump is named in the Jeffrey Epstein files.

And it seems as if Trump isn't the only one who was disappointed with Musk, as Tesla stock investors soon began pulling their investments.

By the end of trading on Thursday, Musk had taken a $34,000,000,000 hit to his net worth, resulting in a 14 percent loss.

The financial hit for Musk marked the second-largest loss ever in the history of the Bloomberg Billionaires Index of the 500 wealthiest people on the planet, the publication reported.

Tesla stock has been extremely volatile in the wake of Musk's connections to the Trump administration. Per The Independent, the electric vehicle manufacturer has seen a 33 percent loss since Inauguration Day in January.
