Between Saturday and Sunday, Donald Trump posted approximately 40 times on his Truth Social platform, with the majority of the content consisting of AI-generated images, Euronews<\/a> writes.<\/p>\n

His latest AI spree included a map showing Venezuela covered in a US flag with the caption “51st State”, as well as Trump’s face hovering over the top of Greenland with the caption: “Hello, Greenland!”.<\/p>\n

While Trump is known for going on AI-rampages as part of his “memetic warfare”, one has incurred the wrath of music lovers worldwide.<\/p>\n

Trump cast himself as none other than The King of Rock and Roll.<\/p>\n

The picture sees him depicted as Elvis Presley, wearing an outfit inspired by the artist’s sequined jumpsuit worn during the filming of his Aloha from Hawaii concert in 1973.<\/p>\n

Trump’s post drew backlash from music fans. One social media user wrote that “Unlike Trump, Elvis actually served our nation with honor, distinction, and rock and roll,” and one account added: “He doesn’t just crave the spotlight, he thinks he’s Elvis in his prime. The ego is off the charts.”<\/p>\n

This is not Trump’s first reference<\/a> to Elvis. He has frequently played Presley’s music at his campaign rallies and has also compared himself to the King of Rock and Roll on several occasions.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
