Trump Claims AI-Generated Posts Made Billions for U.S. Stocks

Trump Claims AI-Generated Posts Made Billions for U.S. Stocks

In a remarkable display of social media activity, President Donald Trump engaged in a posting spree on Truth Social, where he made bold claims regarding his financial contributions to the U.S. economy. On Sunday, Trump asserted that he has made 'hundreds of billions of dollars on stocks and other holdings' for the country, although he provided no evidence to support this assertion.

During the more than ten-hour posting marathon, Trump shared dozens of AI-generated images that depicted him in various heroic scenarios, including one where he is shown defeating Iran. Other images featured Trump on horseback alongside historical figures like George Washington, and even an AI-generated portrayal of actor Robert De Niro holding a shirt that read, 'Trump is my president.'

One notable image depicted Trump seated in front of multiple monitors in the White House, with a caption claiming, 'I do this for our Country, not myself. I’ve made Hundreds of Billions of Dollars on Stocks, and many other type Holdings, for the U.S.A., not myself, and all I do is get criticized by the Radical Left Dumocrats. Very unfair, but what can you do!'

Despite the dramatic claims, there was no substantiation for the figures mentioned. However, it is worth noting that the Trump Administration had previously taken a significant equity stake in semiconductor giant Intel, which has appreciated in value since the investment was made in August 2025, now reportedly exceeding $50 billion.

Trump's use of AI-generated content is not new; he has frequently utilized such imagery during the ongoing tensions with Iran. His posts have included provocative visuals, such as one where he holds a gun with explosions in the background, accompanied by the caption, 'NO MORE MR. NICE GUY!'

The White House has not yet responded to requests for further details regarding the claims or the AI-generated images shared by Trump. As the U.S. and Israel continue their military operations in Iran, Trump's posts reflect a mix of bravado and controversy, raising questions about the veracity of his statements and the implications for U.S.-Iran relations.
