U.S. President Donald Trump shared a series of artificial intelligence-generated images on Truth Social declaring himself the "'best press secretary'".

The satirical posts arrived as the administration faced a vacancy following the departure of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.

Trump posted fabricated images depicting himself at the White House briefing room podium alongside captions praising his own qualifications for the role.

The digital stunt drew heavy attention across social media platforms like X, sparking widespread discussion among online commentators and media analysts.

Donald Trump's use of artificial intelligence to generate satirical, self-flattering, or provocative imagery has become a frequent fixture of his social media strategy.

Following viral online chatter, Trump previously shared AI-generated portraits depicting himself wearing papal vestments and donning a crown with "Long Live the King" headlines.

In addition to that, his official and personal accounts have frequently published fabricated visuals inserting him into movie-style or heroic tropes, ranging from a mob-style fedora portrait to a Jedi knight.

Beyond self-aggrandizing memes, he has utilized generative AI to mock political opponents, foreign leaders, and media figures through deepfake videos and exaggerated digital satire.
