Trump shares AI-fabricated image claiming Robert De Niro now backs him

Donald Trump posted an AI-generated picture on Truth Social that depicts Robert De Niro holding a shirt that says “TRUMP IS MY PRESIDENT,” implying the actor has switched sides.

Donald Trump uploaded an AI-crafted illustration to his Truth Social account, portraying actor Robert De Niro holding a red shirt that reads “TRUMP IS MY PRESIDENT.” Accompanying the image, Trump wrote a sarcastic comment that the “jerk” was starting to understand his appeal. The depiction is false; De Niro, who is 83, has long been an outspoken opponent of Trump, labeling him a “pig,” “punk,” and “evil” in past interviews.

Trump has a history of using AI-generated media to mock critics, including a recent video that portrayed him as a doctor treating celebrities for “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” one outlet adds to the ongoing feud between the president and several Hollywood personalities. No evidence suggests De Niro has altered his stance, and the image appears to be a political stunt rather than genuine endorsement.
