President Barack Obama has had to take a lot of crap from Republicans and others during the last eight years. He is known for his cool and collected manner. The comedy sketch show Key and Peele made several sketches about this.
Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele had a show on Comedy Central for four years, and they made several sketches with Peele playing Obama and Key playing “Luther,” who was Obama’s “anger translator.”
President Obama himself actually had Key be his anger translator at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner last year.

On the Daily Show, Key premiered the final Obama Luther sketch. They managed to roast President-elect Donald Trump in the process. Key introduced the sketch with:
“We thought it only apropos, and everybody on Twitter was, like, ‘What are you doing? You have to do something!’ So we’re doing it, and it’s happening right now.”
Peele’s Obama opens the video with:
“I’ve told Luther he can join me for this last address but that his being on his very best behavior is crucial to healing the divide in this country.”
Key’s Luther said:
“Keep it chill, Luther. Go against every natural instinct in your body.”
When Obama brought up the election, Luther didn’t last too long:
“Trump!? How did this happen, man? Get the f**k out of here!”
People on Twitter are loving it:
America's headstone will just be a granite slab with an embedded TV playing a loop of the final Obama/Luther sketch. God Bless Key&Peele.

The return of Key & Peele's Obama's anger translator Luther is the only positive to come from Cheeto-head's election.
