Trump shredded for not understanding the rules of UNO in fresh AI slop meme: ‘I have all the cards’

President Donald Trump was skewered online for not understanding the rules of Uno — after he shared what appeared to be an AI-generated image of himself captioned: “I have all the cards.”

The seemingly AI-generated image, which was likely meant to signal Trump’s leverage in the Iran war, was shared to Truth Social and on the White House’s official X account on Sunday, sparking a big reaction from social media users who had a field day making fun of the president for missing the point of the beloved game, which is won by the player who gets rid of their cards first.

“Dear @WhiteHouse: If Trump has all the cards, then why are gas prices at record levels? Oh wait, in Uno you win by not having any cards. Your social media person really should get fired,” California Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu responded to the post.

Other social media users were less kind in their criticisms, but continued to pile on the president for his gaffe. “So dumb, if anyone played UNO before, this means you are actually losing,” another X user wrote.

Another user chimed in, writing, “I bet this goes hard if you’re f****** stupid.”

“This is truly the dumbest and most pathetic timeline ever,” another X user added.

Journalist Nick Bryant noted “I have a five year old. I play a lot of Uno. You cannot win or finish the game with these cards.”

Political consultant Rick Wilson added to the pile-on, simply writing, “Small hands.”

The post comes as Trump continues to claim that the U.S. has leverage in the war with Iran.

On Sunday, the president vowed to free commercial ships stranded in the waterway as part of so-called “Project Freedom.”

Trump said the U.S. will launch its effort to “guide” stranded ships from the Strait of Hormuz starting Monday to “free up people, companies, and Countries that have done absolutely nothing wrong.”

U.S. Central Command said the initiative would involve guided-missile destroyers, over 100 aircraft and 15,000 service members.

Following Trump’s announcement, Iran warned that “any foreign armed forces, especially the aggressive US army, will be attacked” if they approach the strait.

Trump said the operation came as the U.S. held “very positive discussions” with Iran, who reportedly issued the U.S. president a one-month deadline for negotiations on its proposed deal to reopen the strait and bring an end to the war.

Iran’s effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, which began after the U.S. and Israel launched the war on February 28, has shaken global markets and caused gas prices to skyrocket.

Brent crude oil surged on Monday to $113.65 a barrel, as gas prices remained high at a nationwide average of $4.46 a gallon, according to AAA.
