Donald Trump shared an AI-generated image of himself portrayed as Elvis Presley as part of a series of edited images posted on his Truth Social account over the weekend.
Between Saturday and Sunday, Trump made about 40 posts on the platform, many featuring AI-created images, including images showing Venezuela covered with a U.S. flag and another placing his face over Greenland with the caption “Hello, Greenland!”
One of the images showed Trump dressed in an outfit inspired by Elvis Presley’s sequined jumpsuit from the 1973 Aloha from Hawaii concert.
The post drew reactions from music fans online, with some criticizing the use of Presley’s image.
Trump has previously referenced Elvis while discussing his public profile. Earlier this year, he claimed he attracted larger audiences than Presley during the singer’s peak while promoting his planned “Freedom 250” celebration.
Trump’s Elvis comparison also received criticism online, with some users referencing past comments he made about his own popularity and comparisons to the late musician.
