The Truth Social post, which had no caption, featured Trump as Superman with "TRUMP 2024" emblazoned across his chest. Behind him, five of his allies' faces were photoshopped onto the bodies of Justice League members.

Elon Musk was photoshopped onto the body of Cyborg while JD Vance was portrayed as Batman. Similarly, Tulsi Gabbard was photoshopped onto Wonder Woman whereas RFK Jr as Aquaman.
Vivek Ramaswamy and Trump were photoshopped onto the bodies of Flash and Superman, respectively.
The editing left noticeable black gaps between Trump's head and the Superman suit, as well as between Vance's head and the Batman outfit.
Donald Trump's fourth collection of NFT trading cards
Many of the NFT cards depicted Donald Trump as a hero. One "SuperTrump" card portrayed him in an Iron Man-style suit, while another showed him dramatically holding the seal of the President of the United States, with clouds and sunlight breaking through the background, titled "Greatest of All Time," according to Metro.
A "limited edition" card depicted Trump wielding a lightning bolt. In another trading card, he was shown holding a large Bitcoin ball, symbolizing his stance as a crypto-friendly president.
