White House posts picture of ‘Superman Trump’

Donald Trump has been turned into Superman in a new meme shared by the official White House accounts.
 

The altered movie poster shows the US president’s face superimposed onto the muscular body of DC’s Man of Steel, alongside the slogans: “Truth, Justice, and The American Way” and “A Trump Presidency.”
 

The image dropped on Thursday night, just as the new Superman film hit cinemas. The parody swaps the original film artwork for a younger, bulked-up Trump, clad in Superman’s signature red cape and tight blue suit.
 

It’s the latest in a string of surreal posts from Trump’s team. In recent months, official accounts have shared an AI-generated image of Trump as the Pope, as well as an animated video imagining Gaza transformed into a flashy Trump-branded resort — complete with the president lounging by the pool with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
 

The Superman meme also landed amid debate over the new film’s message. Director James Gunn told The Sunday Times that Superman is “the story of America… an immigrant that came from other places” and about “basic human kindness.”
 

That sparked outrage from conservative figures. Fox News host Laura Ingraham wrote on X: “Another film we won’t be seeing.” Kellyanne Conway agreed: “We don’t go to the movie theatre to be lectured to.”
 

Others joined in, including Ben Shapiro and Tim Pool, while the viral account End Wokeness branded the reboot “woke” and accused Hollywood of twisting Superman to push an agenda.
 

Even Dean Cain, who played Superman in the 1990s Lois & Clark series, weighed in, telling TMZ: “How woke is Hollywood going to make this character? Why change these classics just to fit the times?”

Despite the backlash, the new Superman film is off to a flying start. It debuted Thursday in select cinemas, earning a 95% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, and is expected to pull in over $100 million (£74 million) worldwide in its opening weekend.
