The official X account of the White House recently shared a new AI-generated video inspired by Rick and Morty, featuring U.S. President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, and several other senators. The animated clip showed Trump greeting a cheering crowd outside the White House, followed by chaotic sequences including green portals, ICE agents apprehending “illegal aliens,” Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer depicted as a robot, and Trump alongside Vance battling a massive alien on a UFO in the United States. The caption on the post read, “Hop in… best dimension yet.”
As of reporting, the post attracted over 2.3 million views and generated significant interaction on the platform. However, the responses were mixed, with many users labeling it as “propaganda.”
Arresting ‘illegal aliens’ in the ‘best dimension’: White House shares Rick and Morty video of Trump
“Jangling keys for dumb babies. Deporting illegal aliens is featured prominently (though in reality, there are no mass deportations), and a war with Iran for Israel isn’t shown at all—it’s the main focus of the Trump administration.”
“Promises made, promises forgotten” could easily serve as the slogan for MAGA. Instead of addressing issues like jobs, affordability, or inflation, attention is always diverted through headlines, scandals, or spectacles to keep the public distracted.”
“You all spend your time creating fake content due to the failure of your actual policies.”
The White House’s X account is no stranger to leveraging AI videos and pop culture references to promote the Trump administration and connect with younger audiences. However, this approach has garnered mixed reactions, with some fans of pop culture urging the White House to stay clear of their favorite shows, movies, and games.
