Internet users were shocked by a video shared by Donald Trump himself on social media. The clip, generated using artificial intelligence, shows the U.S. president trading punches during a hockey match at the Olympic Games.
The video was created using Grok, the chatbot from X, formerly Twitter. Donald Trump appears playing as if he were a professional athlete. He scores fictional goals and even fights with Canadian players.
Internet users believe the video was meant as a provocation toward the Canadian national team after the U.S. defeated Canada 2–1 on Sunday (22), securing the gold medal for the United States.
“What a Trump play,” says the fictional narrator, while the song “Eye of the Tiger” plays in the background.
Donald Trump’s action was poorly received by many users on the X network, including some Republicans.
“His numbers are sinking like a rock, so now he has to insert himself into other people’s victories. Beyond pathetic,” lamented a profile known as Republicans Against Trump.
Democratic Congressman Ted Liu disapproved of the fake video, stating that Donald Trump was focused on things that were not good for the United States.
“Health care costs have gone up. Food prices have gone up. Utility bills have gone up. What is Donald Trump focused on? Fantasizing about being an athlete and turning the Olympics into something about himself,” he said.
“Keep in mind that this is the head of state. The head of state represents what the country is. I think we all need to pay attention to the civilization that we apparently are no longer worthy of,” commented another user.
Trump just shared a bizarre AI video of himself as a hockey player winning Olympic gold for Team USA.
