President of the United States Donald Trump Debate sparked online after sharing a series of late-night social media posts, including an AI-generated image and a photo of the first lady Melania Trump.
His posting spree began around 11:03 p.m. local time, when Trump shared an AI-generated image showing him with the vice president JD Vance Senator Marco Rubio rowed shirtless in the Lincoln Memorial’s reflecting pool. The image cites the landmark’s proposed renovation, indicating it will be finished in “American Flag Blue” using an “industrial-grade” surface, rather than restoring the original granite base.
Trump later posted more images comparing what the reflecting pool looked like during former President Obama’s term to what it will look like after renovations.
The project “remains on track to be completed by the end of May,” the Interior Department said, adding that the light blue coating currently visible is part of a standard multi-layer process.
Melania photos
Among the posts was a photo of Melania Trump smiling after a recent incident that law enforcement said was another attempted attack on the president. The image circulated online, prompting reactions ranging from support to criticism, with some users describing the look as “creepy”.
The post added to the buzz surrounding Trump’s late-night activities, with multiple updates shared in a short period of time. Trump’s posts also included criticism of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, whom he called a “low IQ” and a “thug.”

Another photo shows Trump’s face next to Mount Rushmore National Monument. The president has previously said adding his likeness to monuments “sounds like a good idea,” although legislative proposals to do so in 2025 have not moved forward.
The volume and tone of the posts prompted reactions from commentators and social media users. Political commentator Harry Sisson noted that the posts appeared one after another, writing: “All this happened within an hour. The man is not well.”
