Trump Floods Social Media Over U.S. Holiday Weekend with AI Memes of Boasting, Mockery, and Renaming Places

U.S. President Donald Trump has been relentless on his social media platform, Truth Social, posting a barrage of content even throughout the U.S. Labor Day holiday weekend (September 5–7).

On Sunday, September 6, the second day of the holiday, more than 60 posts flooded his Truth Social account.

A significant portion of these posts appeared to be memes generated using artificial intelligence (AI).

Among the posts, the one that drew the most attention was a map photo renaming the state of New Mexico to "New America."

In the photo, a red "X" was drawn over "Mexico," with "America" written below it.

As President Trump persists in his obsession with changing existing geographic names by either using his own name or appending America, this move has once again sparked controversy and backlash from the opposition Democratic Party in the U.S.

On September 7, President Trump continued to post multiple map images renaming New Mexico to New America, alongside a map claiming that Canada and Greenland are also entirely U.S. territory.

Among the posts uploaded over the two days amid a trade war with Canada was an image renaming Lake Ontario, which borders the U.S. and Canada, to "Lake America."

A cartoon image was also posted showing President Trump playing ice hockey with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, telling Carney, who had fallen down, "Get up, Governor."

Other posts included one claiming the Strait of Hormuz as U.S. territory, an image of a Middle Eastern map where Iran's silhouette was altered to resemble his own profile, and an image of him striking Iran with a hammer bearing the U.S. flag.

Several surreal images were also posted showing President Trump himself surrounded by combat robots with the caption, "Give them nightmares."

An AI-synthesized image of Hulk Hogan wearing a red headband reading "MAGA" (a reference to President Trump's hardcore supporters meaning "Make America Great Again") and draped in the U.S. flag was also posted, though a closer look revealed the face was that of President Trump.

There was also a synthesized image of an arm-wrestling match with Hogan, in which Trump is smiling leisurely while Hogan grimaces in distress.

He re-posted an image declaring himself the "Greatest" president in U.S. history, as well as images showing him riding horses side-by-side with the first U.S. president, George Washington, and inviting the former president to converse in the Oval Office.

An image estimated to be a draft of the Space Force uniform posted by President Trump faced criticism for evoking Nazi Germany.

"Starship Troopers," which President Trump revealed inspired the uniform design, is a 1997 film satirizing fascism.

Because the Space Force uniform design was inspired by the fascist military in the film, it even drew mockery asking whether it was a "Space Nazi Force" rather than a Space Force.

He also posted a photo reading "The Moon is ours" attached with a U.S. flag.

Amid a lunar exploration race between the U.S. and China, this was a unilateral claim that the Moon belongs to the United States.

President Trump also posted a photo of famous actor Robert De Niro holding a red T-shirt that read "Trump is my President," writing, "Even a dummy like this is starting to understand (reality)."

Given that De Niro is one of Hollywood's most prominent critics of Trump, the image is highly likely to be fake.

Meanwhile, President Trump is spending the holiday at his golf club in New Jersey. Arriving in New Jersey on September 4, he stepped off Air Force One with his hair color visibly changed from blond to dark brown.

The conservative-leaning media outlet Fox News reported that "social media reactions flooded in," introducing responses from social media users such as "Trump going brown-hair was definitely not on my 2026 bingo card" and "Looks like brown is the new blond."
