If you were hanging out on Twitter on Sunday, you probably saw this viral video making the rounds.

It shows "Donald Trump" with a really brave young girl who tells him, "You're a disgrace to the world," before taking a pic.

The video has more than 130,000 retweets and 200,000 likes.

However, the guy in question isn't the U.S. president. He's actually one of the best Trump impersonators around, Anthony Atamanuik, who does an amazing Trump impression on The President Show on Comedy Central.

And tweeting @RealDonaldTrump:

He also had an explanation on why the video only went viral over the weekend since it went on air last Thursday.
