Summary

In July 2026, a rumor spread that U.S. President Donald Trump had posted an artificial intelligence-generated image on Truth Social showing himself alongside Mahatma Gandhi, John F. Kennedy, and a figure resembling Jesus Christ in front of the White House. Snopes investigated the claim and determined that the screenshot circulating on social media platforms was not authentic. While Trump did post a similar AI-generated image featuring himself and Kennedy, the specific image including Gandhi and the Jesus lookalike was identified as fake, originating from an X account with a history of posting outlandish claims.
