Trump claims 'hundreds of billions' in stock gains for U.S. in AI image posting spree
President Trump spent over 10 hours on Truth Social posting dozens of AI-generated images, including one showing him monitoring markets with a caption claiming he personally made 'Hundreds of Billions of Dollars on Stocks' and other holdings for the country. No evidence was provided for the claim, which came amid other unrelated AI images depicting scenes like Iran's defeat and Trump on horseback with George Washington.
