White House Sparks Outrage With ‘Superman Trump’ Image—Internet Demands Answers
If you haven’t seen the image yet, you’re in for an odd journey as a result of a recent White House tweet that has created a stir online.
It’s safe to say that the past several months have been quite hectic for US President Donald Trump.
Things haven’t exactly gone his way, from his embarrassing back-and-forth tirade with Elon Musk to his attempts to ease tensions between Israel and Iran in the Middle East.
Subsequently, he claimed to have threatened Russian President Vladimir Putin with bombs in a leaked warning to Russia.
However, he is currently the target of intense internet trolling due to a peculiar post that the White House shared.
In case you missed it, once the strange analogy surfaced on social media, the president was the focus of one query.
It all began when the official account posted a meme of Trump dressed as Superman, seemingly in an effort to capitalise on the buzz surrounding the upcoming film, which is scheduled for release today (July 11).
“THE SYMBOL OF HOPE. TRUTH. JUSTICE. THE AMERICAN WAY. SUPERMAN TRUMP”, the post reads above a picture of the president parodying the movie’s poster.
Trump’s face is superimposed on the torso of the superhero in the picture, who is dressed in the recognisable red and blue Lycra suit.
His political rivals, however, reacted negatively to it right once. California Democratic Representative Robert Garcia responded, “He’s literally Lex Luthor.”
Political analyst Mehdi Hasan likened the response to Trump’s meme to what would have happened if Biden had followed suit.
They said, “Just imagine the response if the Biden White House had posted something like this. But Trump is graded on some kind of never-seen-before curve and this craziness is normalized.”
The fact that they were all asking the same question—Are you serious?—was such an odd sight to others.
One person claimed, ‘you guys aren’t serious’, before adding: “The movie *Idiocracy* is nothing compared to this.”
AI creator Mario Pawlowski went on to comment about the origins of Superman, writing, “Superman was an illegal immigrant growing up on an American farm and a hero from a comic book. Trump is a total opposite of Superman, a Superloser.”
Others, however, were all in favour of the meme.
One person praised, “Trump isn’t just Superman – he’s a LEGEND. Most investigated man in human history by every alphabet agency, every prosecutor, every corrupt institution… and they found NOTHING. Meanwhile, they’re all terrified of what HE knows about THEM. That’s not just innocent – that’s untouchable. Superman doesn’t just fight villains – he exposes them.”
The same account wrote: “Trump is the real Superman. Always has been. Always will be.”
Someone else commented, “Strong, bold, unstoppable just like the country he’s fighting to restore and protect.”
The meme had 18.8 million views in just 18 hours as commentators engaged in a heated debate on the thread, with insults flying from both sides.
What will be the next post from the White House, I wonder?
