U.S. President Donald Trump is no stranger to controversial social media posts, so it may not come as a surprise that he's embraced bizarre content generated by artificial intelligence.
In May 2026, for example, the president posted an AI-generated image of himself flanked by security while walking alongside a shackled alien. A month earlier, he posted and then deleted an AI-generated depiction of himself in the likeness of Jesus Christ, drawing criticism from both his supporters and opponents. Some of the Trump administration's posts featuring AI-generated content have also spread misinformation, such as a video promoting fake cure-all devices known as "med beds."
Snopes frequently receives inquiries about AI-generated content posted by Trump or the White House, including a video of Trump poop-bombing protesters and an image of the president as the pope. Below we compiled 10 articles on this topic.
