"In that 19-second video, which Trump posted on Truth Social, the president of the United States is pictured riding in the cockpit of a fighter plane, wearing a crown, in what appears to be a nod to the movie Top Gun as its iconic "Danger Zone" song by Kenny Loggins plays in the background. Loggins requested his music be removed immediately, according to Rolling Stone."
"Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance took to Bluesky in what also appeared to be an attempt to mock the protests, posting a black-and-white AI-generated meme of Trump wearing a crown and pulling out a shiny sword, as former House Speaker and current U.S. representative Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats bend down on one knee to him. (Some critics have said Trump and Vance's posts only prove the protesters' point that he is, in fact, acting like a King.)"
President Donald Trump posted an AI-generated 19-second video on Truth Social depicting him in a fighter jet wearing a crown and dropping what appears to be sewage on protesters. Trump told reporters that the nearly 7 million people who attended nationwide rallies "are not representative of the people of our country." Indivisible co-executive director Ezra Levin criticized the response and said Trump appeared angry. Kenny Loggins demanded immediate removal of his song "Danger Zone," calling the use unauthorized and divisive. Vice President JD Vance posted a black-and-white AI meme mocking protesters, and critics noted repeated use of generative AI by the administration.
