Wait, Trump Went Full Superhero? And The Internet Lost It!

Hey! Today, we're diving into the wild video where Donald Trump got a Green Lantern makeover. It's part superhero vibe, part political drama, and all meme gold.

So, apparently, on September 7, the White House’s X account dropped a video showing Trump rocking the Green Lantern ring. You know, the classic DC hero who’s basically got power fueled by sheer will and a super cool green glow. Green Lantern first popped up way back in 1940, but the one we usually think of, Hal Jordan, came around in 1959.

In this video, Trump uses his magical ring not to fly or fight villains but to block immigrants and pump up the economy. Sounds... dramatic. Unsurprisingly, folks weren’t impressed. Comments ranged from calling it “the most pathetic post ever” to just plain “stupid.” Ouch.

People also pointed out that the video feels like it's cashing in on the recent DCU show Lanterns, which kicked off in August 2026 and has stirred up some chatter itself. The show follows Hal Jordan training John Stewart (a Black former Marine) to take over the Green Lantern spot. There's drama, some race talks, and even a spicy age-gap romance subplot. Yup, things got complicated.

And then there’s Garret Dillahunt’s shirtless scenes that gave viewers both shock and awe – the guy’s 61 and still rocking it on screen.

While fans wait for new episodes, they've turned the whole thing into a meme factory, poking fun at everything from the storylines to the acting choices. As for Trump? Well, the internet didn’t hold back on roasting his superhero debut!
