On Tuesday, President Donald Trump re-posted a bizarre AI-generated image on social media with the American flag superimposed over three different countries, seemingly reigniting calls to annex Canada, Greenland, Cuba, and Venezuela into the union.
The president took to Truth Social in the morning to post the AI image showing him speaking to different world leaders, including British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, and others from the Oval Office.
The image shows the president displaying a map that shows the American flag covering Venezuela, Canada, Cuba, and Greenland, countries he has previously called to take over. He did not accompany the post with a caption. It comes after Trump’s ‘disgusting’ bedroom habits were revealed.
Trump had previously posted that same image in January, after American forces captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, at his home in Caracas.
This isn’t the first time Trump has posted fake images alluding to the U.S. takeover of sovereign nations. Also in January, the president shared an image of himself, Vice President JD Vance, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio posing with the Stars and Stripes in Greenland.

“Greenland – US territory est. 2026,” the image read, showing Trump sticking the American flag on the ground.
Users on social media were quick to troll the president’s post, with some joking about his continued efforts to expand the union.
“Nobel Peace Prize material, right there,” one user said on X, recalling the failed president’s efforts to win the esteemed award.
“I see Venezuela on that map is ours also. What about Cuba? Have to take that also and make it a state,” another user commented.
“Trump likes the image of himself as the man who expands America, dominates other countries, humiliates allies, and redraws the world by personal decree. Americans and people around the world see him as a buffoon and wonder how this country voted for him,” a third furious user posted.

Trump calls for U.S. takeover of sovereign nations
World leaders have repeatedly pushed back on Trump’s threats. For instance, at the height of his efforts to take over Greenland in January, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney took to the World Economic Forum in Davos to denounce the American president’s comments.
“If great powers abandon even the pretense of rules and values for the unhindered pursuit of their power and interests, the gains from transactionalism will become harder to replicate,” he said.
Around that time, Trump also threatened Canada with harsh tariffs on goods imported from several NATO allies until a deal was reached for the “complete and total purchase of Greenland.” Likewise, since winning the 2024 presidential election, Trump has repeatedly joked about making Canada the U.S.’s 51st state, calling Prime Minister Carney a “governor.”

Separately, after Maduro’s capture, Trump said Washington would run Venezuela until a peaceful transition occurred. Months later, however, interim President Delcy Rodriguez is still in charge, though she has warned Trump that Venezuela is “not a colony, but a free country.”
Meanwhile, in Cuba, tensions appear to remain high, as the country’s electrical grid collapses and Trump calls for a change in regime on the island. Last month, the U.S. Treasury Department leveled sanctions on Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel, Castro’s son and grandson, along with others. In response, U.S. President Donald Trump said of Cuba: “We’re going to handle that as soon as we’ve finished” military operations in Iran. Meanwhile, a former Trump staffer revealed his 4 chilling predictions for what the president will do next.
