Trump posts wild new AI meme trolling Biden, Obama and Clinton with autopen, ice cream and cocaine references

In his latest swipe at his predecessor, President Donald Trump posted an artificial intelligence-generated image depicting former President Joe Biden asleep, surrounded by ice cream, while former President Barack Obama holds an “autopen” and Hillary Clinton looks on menacingly.

Trump, who consistently peddles theories about Biden’s presidency, referred to the AI image as a “highly accurate depiction of the Sleepy Joe Biden Administration,” though it appears to show Obama, Clinton, and Hunter Biden, the president’s son – none of whom were official members of his administration.

The image bolsters controversies about the Biden administration: Hunter Biden’s drug addiction, the 2023 incident where cocaine was found in the White House, Biden’s penchant for ice cream and the theory that Biden was incapable of performing the duties as president so his aides used an autopen.

“Tremendous damage done but, WE’RE BACK!!!” Trump captioned the image.

The president is no stranger to posting AI images, especially if they depict his political opponents in a negative light or elevate him and his allies.

Days ago, Trump posted an AI-generated meme of himself and his predecessors, calling Biden a “coward” and Obama a “traitor.” Last year, he posted an AI video of Obama being arrested, to bolster a conspiracy theory that Obama tried to harm Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.

Earlier this year, Trump faced widespread backlash for posting a racist AI-generated video of Barack and Michelle Obama’s faces on monkeys. He eventually deleted the post.

Unlike most former presidents, Trump has few boundaries when it comes to insulting his predecessors. He has often used his Truth Social to repost debunked or baseless theories or AI content from random social media accounts – so long as they paint him in a better light than his opponents.

But offline, at rallies and during press conferences, Trump repeats the same familiar lines about his predecessor – accusing him of being unfit and claiming his aides used an autopen to get work done on his behalf.

Trump even installed a portrait of an autopen in lieu of a portrait of Biden on the White House Presidential Walk of Fame.

The president has allegedly pushed his Justice Department to open a criminal case into the Biden administration’s use of the autopen, particularly at the end of the Biden presidency, but reportedly failed to secure an indictment. Biden has denied using the autopen to grant pardons at the end of his term.

But it’s not just Biden. Trump accused Clinton, the former Secretary of State who ran against him in 2016, of criminal behavior.

He’s also accused Obama of treason and conspiring to hurt his 2016 presidential campaign. Obama has denied those allegations and called Trump’s accusations “outrageous.”
