Trump said to be 'not well' after self-serving D-Day posts: 'Not a word about heroes' [View all]

Trump enraged onlookers by spending the 82nd anniversary of D-Day flooding Truth Social with AI-generated videos glorifying himself — riding a camel through a desert, skydiving with a red parachute, walking through cheering crowds in New York — while posting nothing about the soldiers who stormed the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944.

The backlash from analysts was swift.

"It's D-Day. Trump's first post on Truth Social is a bizarre AI video about how much people love Donald Trump," Republicans Against Trump wrote Saturday morning. "Not a word about the heroes who stormed the beaches of Normandy. That tells you everything you need to know about Trump."

]As the hours passed without any acknowledgment from the Commander in Chief, the group posted updates. "Still no mention of D-Day from Trump." Then, near the end of the day: "It's almost 5 p.m. on D-Day. The Commander in Chief still hasn't said a word about it. Disgraceful."

What Trump did post included an AI image mocking the Obama Presidential Center as a garbage can surrounded by a tent city, a transphobic AI collage targeting Rosie O'Donnell, an attack on a federal judge blocking his White House drone port, and multiple videos apparently designed to show the world how beloved he is.
