The White House reposted an image of Trump in royal attire with a sword
The official White House account on the social network X has reposted an image in which Donald Trump is seen with a royal crown on his head and a serious, regal expression.
This image is taken from a 15-second video that was previously released by J.D. Vance, Trump’s deputy, on the social network Bluesky.
In this video, Trump, dressed in royal attire and holding a sword, places a jeweled crown on his head while those around him bow in respect and loyalty.
The reposting of this image by the official White House account has sparked widespread reactions on social media, with some users calling it a display of power.
The clip directly references his opposition to the protests against monarchy.
At the same time as these widespread protests were taking place, J.D. Vance, the U.S. Vice President, also reacted to the protesters by releasing a video showing Trump being crowned.
