In early February 2018, Donald Trump impersonator Dennis Alan and Howard X made headlines on many news channels for their appearances together at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics opening ceremony. The duo jokingly stated they believed their political satire had inspired the 2018 North Korea–United States Singapore Summit as before these events, the relationship between the two countries were at all time low where war of words were frequent between the real presidents due to tensions regarding North Korea’s missile and nuclear programme. The impersonators flew together to Singapore before the actual summit to show solidarity towards the event.
