The post boasts an eye-popping artificial intelligence version of his father staring intensely as he lies across the floor, legs splayed, decked out in denim. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s a clear reference to a controversial ad campaign<\/a> from the clothing brand American Eagle that has sparked a racism debate<\/a>. The campaign features actress Sydney Sweeney, 27, showing off a catalog of poses while wearing the brand\u2019s denim. <\/p>\n The issue, for some, was the choice of wording that accompanied the imagery. \u201cSydney Sweeney has great jeans,\u201d the text reads, apparently a wordplay on the phrase \u2018good genes.\u2019 <\/p>\n In response, social media users bashed the brand for promoting eugenics and white supremacy. \u201cThe American Eagles [sic] ad wasn\u2019t just a commercial. It was a love letter to white nationalism and eugenic fantasies, and Sydney Sweeney knew it,\u201d activist Zellie Imani wrote on X<\/a>. <\/p>\n That suggestion prompted a MAGA backlash that also saw Sen. Ted Cruz weigh in<\/a>, basically thirsting over Sweeney. \u201cWow. Now the crazy Left has come out against beautiful women\u201a\u201d the Texas senator posted on X<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n President Donald Trump\u2019s communications director, Steven Cheung, got in on the act too.<\/p>\n \u201cCancel culture run amok. This warped, moronic, and dense liberal thinking is a big reason why Americans voted the way they did in 2024. They\u2019re tired of this bulls–t,\u201d he wrote <\/a>on X.<\/p>\n Cheung shared a screenshot of an MSNBC article titled \u2018Sydney Sweeney\u2019s ad shows an unbridled cultural shift towards whiteness\u2019 in which one of the network\u2019s producers, Hannah Holland, argues<\/a> that the ad is \u201cdamaging\u201d and \u201cdangerous.\u201d <\/p>\n American Eagle CEO Jay Schottenstein hails from a family dynasty that has made headlines<\/a> for its open admiration of Trump.<\/p>\n Longtime members at Trump\u2019s Mar-a-Lago resort, the Schottensteins have vacationed in Palm Beach for years and are said to have a personal rapport with the president.<\/p>\n![\"Sydney](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ONX7ARH5B5FSDIFMB6TLVQ5S4Q.jpg\")
