Donald Trump Shares Wild 'Shady Bunch' Meme Showing Barack Obama and James Comey in Prison Jumpsuits — 'This Is a Bad (Sick!) Group of People'

Trump posted an AI-generated mugshot grid of Obama and former aides as his Justice Department pursued cases against political foes.

  • On Sunday, President Donald Trump shared an AI-generated image on Truth Social depicting former President Barack Obama and several officials in orange prison jumpsuits, captioned "The Shady Bunch."
  • Trump's post aligns with his long-standing "Obamagate" claims, an unsubstantiated theory that Obama-era officials engaged in illegal surveillance against his 2016 campaign. He has repeatedly endorsed arresting former officials during his second presidency.
