President Donald Trump reposted an AI-generated video of a fighter jet labeled “King Trump” dumping brown sludge on No Kings protesters as the nationwide demonstrations framed his second term as monarchy in American life.
The clip shows a gold-crowned, sharply orange depiction of Trump piloting a plane marked “King Trump” and releasing bursts of brown matter over an AI cityscape. A selfie shot captures a crowd coated in the liquid, with a final image resembling Times Square as protesters are doused.
No Kings organizers claimed 7 million people joined more than 2,700 events across all 50 states that day.
It was not the first time Trump reposted an AI-generated video. Earlier in October, Trump shared a deepfake of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer calling Democrats “woke pieces of shit,” alongside a racist depiction of House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries wearing a fake mustache and sombrero set to mariachi music.
Vice President JD Vance defended the new meme as humor, saying “you can negotiate in good faith while also poking a little bit of fun at some of the absurdities of the Democrats’ positions.”
Republican accounts also leaned on AI. The Senate Republicans’ social media feed posted an attack ad against Schumer that used a deepfake of the senator saying “every day gets better for us” during the federal government shutdown. The video included a small on-screen disclaimer stating it was AI-generated.
Trump publicly rejected the “king” label before the marches. “They say they’re referring to me as a king. I’m not a king,” he said in an interview before the protests.
“I’m not a king. I work my ass off to make our country great. That’s all it is. I’m not a king at all,” he told reporters, calling the protests “a joke.” He added, “The demonstrations were very small, very ineffective, and the people were whacked out. When you look at those people, they are not representative of the people of our country.”
Vance posted his own royal meme on Bluesky that depicted prominent Democrats kneeling in a court before Trump, reinforcing the running crown motif that appeared across multiple weekend posts.
