President Donald Trump went on an early morning Truth Social posting spree including AI-generated images that suggested using lasers to win the Iran war, and details of his upcoming birthday plans.
In posts made at around 5.30 a.m. Friday, the president appeared to defend the war as well as describing his 80th birthday on June 14 as the “biggest ever.”
“Lasers: Bing, Bing, GONE!!!” read one post, featuring an image of an American battleship taking down a plane marked with an Iranian flag using a laser beam.
Another AI-generated image depicted Trump with UFC president Dana White on the White House lawn in front of a military guard firing weapons, and a flyover of military jets. “June 14th. Biggest ever!!! DJT,” the president captioned that image.
Trump first touted the controversial idea of a UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House last year. The event was originally intended to mark the 250th anniversary of the United States, but will now celebrate both events.
Trump also described the ongoing conflict in Iran as an “excursion” and compared it to the lengths of other U.S. conflicts including the Vietnam War and World War II. The U.S. strikes on Iran, named Operation Epic Fury, began February 28.
Trump also claimed the economy was at an “all time high” and that the price of oil is lower than during the presidency of Joe Biden, who he referred to again as “sleepy Joe.”
