Donald Trump also spread a bizarre AI-generated image of Obama, Joe Biden, and Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi bathing in sewage water Trump has once again lashed out at Barack Obama in a series of late-night Truth Social posts this week, including re-sharing one that calls for him to be arrested.
The US President, 79, took to the social media platform to share more than 50 posts in three hours, just before his trip to China for talks with Xi Jinping.
On the evening of 11 May and into the early morning hours of 12 May, the Republican leader unleashed fury on not only Obama, but also the New York Times, Hilary Clinton, and the Supreme Court, to name just a few targets.
The POTUS shared calls for Obama’s arrest that had been posted by other accounts, including one that called the former US President ‘the most DEMONIC FORCE in American politics in decades’.
The world leader also shared many posts that falsely accuse Obama and his allies of stealing the 2020 election from Trump and attempting to rig the 2016 election.
Another post, Trump re-shared read: “Arrest them all. Prosecute them all. Incarcerate them all at once for treachery, treason, and seditious conspiracy to overthrow the United States Government. But first, Barack Obama.”
While a separate one read: “Arrest Obama the traitor.”
If that wasn’t enough, he followed up with an AI-generated image of Obama, Joe Biden, and Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi bathing in dirty water in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, captioned “Dumacrats Love Sewage.”
And it’s not the first time Trump has targeted Obama, as in February he shared an AI-generated video depicting him and his wife Michelle Obama as apes, which caused widespread backlash.
The clip in question showed the former president and former First Lady with their faces superimposed onto the bodies of the animals, while The Tokens’ song The Lion Sleeps Tonight played in the background.
It led to widespread anger, and California governor Gavin Newsom wrote on X at the time: “Every single Republican must denounce this. Now.”
The POTUS told reporters that he ‘didn’t see’ the part of the video that showed the Obamas and added that he ‘didn’t make a mistake,’ as per the BBC.
Trump’s latest Truth Social spree came hours before the US President jetted to China and arrived in Beijing on 13 May for talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the Iran war, trade, and US arms sales to Taiwan.
And he got quite the welcome, with a military honour guard, a military band, and some 300 Chinese youngsters waving Chinese and American flags and chanting, “Welcome, welcome! Warm welcome!” as Trump made his way to his waiting limousine.
The main summit meetings are happening 14 May with leaders visiting the Temple of Heaven, where Chinese emperors once prayed for bumper crops, and hold bilateral talks and a formal banquet.
The US President told reporters as he left the White House: “We’re the two superpowers. “We’re the strongest nation on Earth in terms of military. China’s considered second.”
Trump just posted darkest post yet about citizenship and it gives a scary insight into his mind
In typical Donald Trump style, the president stayed up late on Sunday night, spamming his social media with posts ranging from AI-generated images of himself to sinister predictions about an upcoming Supreme Court decision.
The late-night flurry of posts shared on his Truth Social platform included a “Thank you!” for “Excellent Poll Numbers,” although it is unclear what poll he was referring to, as he is facing quite the opposite problem since invading Iran.
What did Trump predict?
In one of the most outrageous posts in the frenzy, Trump made a prediction that the Supreme Court would squash his executive order ending birthright citizenship in the United States.
The post stated that it would make the US “the only Country in the World that practices this unsustainable, unsafe, and incredibly costly DISASTER.”
Within the following hour, he posted another staggering 17 times; many of the posts were shared from his followers’ accounts, describing him as the greatest president ever.
One post was an AI-generated image of Trump overlaid with gold cursive writing that said: “The Greatest of All Time.”
Another was a picture of a banner fastened to a car that read: “Trump is without a doubt the greatest president we have ever known.”
Where did the ‘excellent poll numbers’ come from?
President Trump also shared a claim that a CNN survey showed he has beaten Ronald Reagan as the “most beloved president among Republicans.”
Still, the origin of the president’s “excellent poll numbers” is unclear, as a recent survey proved his popularity is plummeting.
The CNN poll shared last week under the headline: “Charting how Trump became a historically unpopular president,” proves that “President Donald Trump appears to be more unpopular than he’s ever been – including after the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot.”
Another part of the US president’s digital rampage was a long rant about the Republican judges on the Supreme Court, who he claims haven’t “remained true” to him.
In the online blasting, Trump shamed Supreme Court justices Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett over their decision to block his tariffs.
The president wrote: “I ‘Love’ Justice Neil Gorsuch!
“He’s a really smart and good man, but he voted against me, and our Country, on Tariffs, a devastating move.
“How do I reconcile this? So bad, and hurtful to our Country.
“I have, likewise, always liked and respected Amy Coney Barrett, but the same thing with her.”
