Trump Shares AI Video Mocking ‘No Kings’ Protesters
On Saturday, former President Donald Trump shared a provocative AI-generated video on his Truth Social account. The 19-second clip features Trump adorned with a crown inside a fighter jet labeled “King Trump.” In the video, he appears to drop what looks like feces on protesters during the nationwide “No Kings” rallies.
Details of the “No Kings” Protests
The “No Kings” demonstrations were held across the United States, protesting Trump’s administration. Organized to voice discontent, these protests drew an impressive turnout.
- Nearly 7 million participants
- Over 2,700 demonstrations nationwide
- 2 million more attendees compared to the previous protests in June
Reactions to the Video
Among those depicted in the video is Harry Sisson, a known left-wing influencer. Sisson tweeted, asking for an explanation as to why Trump would post such a video. He wrote, “Can a reporter please ask Trump why he posted an AI video of himself dropping poop on me from a fighter jet?”
In response, Vice President JD Vance commented on Sisson’s tweet, promising to inquire on his behalf. As of now, the White House has not commented on the situation.
Trump’s History with AI-Generated Content
This video isn’t an isolated incident. Trump has increasingly utilized AI-generated videos to counter his critics in recent months. A review by NBC News revealed that approximately half of Trump’s AI content was produced during August and September alone.
Many of these videos are sourced from other accounts before being reshared by Trump, including the recent fighter jet clip.
Trump’s Response to Kings Allegation
During an interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo, Trump addressed claims that he resembles a monarch. He explicitly rejected this characterization, stating, “You know, they’re saying they’re referring to me as a king. I’m not.”
As the political climate heats up, Trump’s use of AI-generated videos and responses to protests continues to evoke strong reactions across the nation.
