The president of the United States, Donald Trump, has designated himself Troller in Chief during a closure of the United States government, mocking rival democrats with memes sometimes racially dyed and hoping that they assume guilt.
From the ambush of the best democrats with the “Trump 2028” hats in the oval office to a video generated by the AI of the minority of the IA representatives chamber, Hakeem Jeffries in a hat, the attack of social networks has been extreme even for the standards of the Republicans.
But there is a serious strategy behind social ones: do not negotiate, threaten mass layoffs and wait for the Democrats to fall.
As the clock was reduced to the deadline for a first closure in almost seven years, Trump seemed more interested in trolling than in the treatment.
Hours before the deadline on Tuesday, Trump published three photos in his social network of the truth of his meeting one day before with the leader of the minority of the Democratic Senate Chuck Schumer and Jeffries.
In the foreground? Network “Trump 2028” Hats placed in the iconic resolved desk, referring to a third presidential term of constitutionally prohibited. In an image, a smiling Trump points to Jeffries.
Jeffries said the baseball limits “appeared randomly in the middle of the meeting on the desk. It was the strangest.” It was an extraordinary trick of an president, even one that recently replaced a photo of his predecessor Joe Biden with a so -called “Self -Cen”.
Vance told him Fox News On Wednesday, Trump’s hats made Schumer and Jeffries “very uncomfortable” but insisted that they had also had a “very good conversation” in the closing row, before Trump gave up and accused the Democrats of trying to take them “hostages.”
‘Glow up’
Much more controversial was Trump’s publication on Monday of a video of “Ai Slop” by Schumer and Jeffries outside the White House than the camera’s minority leader described “racist and false.”
He presented false images and generated by AI who seem to show Schumer using vulgar language and announce plans to attract illegal immigrants with benefits, while showing chiefs with a hat and a thick mustache while mariachi music sounds.
Trumpworld doubled the video despite the accusations of racism.
Trump’s son, Don JR, published three emojis that cry on X above a Trump’s photo with the legend: “Digmers that have an hour or I will publish them with another hat.”
The White House, meanwhile, joined the trolling. The images of the Democrats who oppose the previous closures were played in a loop on the screens in the famous information room.
In a deeply polarized American political scene in which to win the social networks war is at least half of the battle, Republicans expect Trump’s memes to be an effective weapon. It can work, with the Democrats who still fight in the strategy and messages after Trump’s 2024 electoral crusher.
“If you can’t laugh at this, then you personify the problem with the Democratic Party these days,” said Michael Larroso, former spokesman for Jill Biden, on X on the hat of the hat. “We are going to lighten a little.”
Some Democrats have adopted a similar strategy. The governor of California, Gavin Newsom, whose press office has deliberately copied the abrasive style and all the capital of Trump, said when the closure went into progress: “Trump is always chicken (Taco). No hat is needed!”
But the trolling of Trump’s Democrats also extends to serious and specific threats. Threatening the massive shots during closing, Trump said Tuesday that “we can get rid of many things we didn’t want. They would be Democratic things.”
TO Siena/New York Times The survey seemed to show the voters that the voters kept both parties almost equally responsible for the closure, for now.
Of 1,075 people surveyed from September 22 to 27, 19 percent blamed the Democrats in Congress, 26pc blamed Trump and Republicans in Congress, 33pc blamed both of them equally, while 21PC said they had not heard enough to say it.
