US President Donald Trump has posted a bizarre AI-made music video on Truth Social portraying him as a globe-trotting idol on the morning of the D-Day anniversary
US President Donald Trump has once again been using artificial intelligence (AI). This time, he posted a music video in which he received praise as a global idol, with lyrics insisting people around the world “love Donald Trump”.
The visuals also depict him riding a giant lion as the one-minute, club-style track repeats his name over and over again. The clip cuts between surreal scenes of an AI Trump paragliding, standing on the Moon in a spacesuit, posing by the Leaning Tower of Pisa and eating a pizza printed with his own face.
There is also a segment where his face is on the side of a London bus. Posted early on Saturday (June 6), it appeared to be the president’s first post on his Truth Social platform.
Social media users were quick to criticise the bizarre video song which claimed people in countries including Mexico, Italy, China, India and across the Middle East all adore him. The music was credited to Anthony Constantino, a Trump-endorsed Republican congressional candidate from New York, who wrote the track and included his name at the end of the video. The post sparked divided reactions as it landed on the morning of the 82nd anniversary of D-Day, when political leaders traditionally mark the date with commemorative messaging.
Instead, Trump’s feed led with an AI-heavy, self-promotional video, continuing a pattern of him sharing exaggerated synthetic media to boost his image. The nearly-80-year-old has increasingly turned to generative AI content across his social media, using it to mock opponents, float eye-catching political messaging and project a larger-than-life image.
A string of widely shared posts has also triggered fierce debate about the tone of presidential communications and the growing normalisation of synthetic media in politics. Earlier this month, Trump posted a separate AI promotional-style video presenting a dramatically reimagined “vision” for Gaza, portraying the war-battered territory as a glossy Gulf-style “Riviera” resort under US ownership.
The upbeat montage included synthetic scenes such as a giant golden Trump statue on the waterfront, an Elon Musk lookalike eating hummus, and shirtless American and Israeli leaders lounging on a beach.
The Palestinian Authority condemned the clip, arguing it trivialised the conflict and raised serious concerns around international law.
