Donald Trump sparked fresh controversy on Truth Social after posting a series of graphic and manipulated images targeting prominent Democratic figures, including former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
In one widely circulated post, captioned “Dumacrats Love Sewage,” Trump shared what appeared to be a Photoshopped image showing Obama, Biden, and Pelosi submerged in a sewage-filled version of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
The post was part of a broader online spree in which Trump also shared several other altered or AI-generated images. These included depictions of U.S. military equipment striking Iranian assets, a graphic comparing House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ district to a deteriorated urban area, and an AI-generated image of Illinois Governor JB Pritzker consuming an oversized assortment of fast food.
Trump also posted an image of a redesigned $100 bill featuring his name and likeness, along with a separate graphic highlighting stock market performance labeled as an “all-time high.” Another post included an inaccurate timeline of the ongoing conflict with Iran, misrepresenting its duration.
In addition to the visual posts, Trump launched a lengthy written attack against The New York Times, calling it “one of the worst newspapers anywhere in the world” and accusing it of repeatedly misreporting his political record and election results.
He also defended earlier comments about the Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C., claiming criticism of the renovation efforts was politically motivated and misrepresented by media outlets.
The series of posts quickly drew attention across political and media circles, adding to ongoing debates about Trump’s use of social media and increasingly provocative online messaging style.
