US President Donald Trump has shared an AI-generated video showing himself as a doctor treating celebrity critics for what he calls “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS).
The video, posted on X on July 2, features AI-generated versions of several well-known celebrities, including Robert De Niro, Julia Roberts, Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie O’Donnell, John Leguizamo and Edward Norton.
In the satirical clip, an AI-generated Trump introduces himself as “Dr. Trump,” claiming to offer a treatment for people suffering from TDS a term frequently used by Trump and his supporters to describe what they consider irrational opposition to the president.
The video shows AI-generated celebrity “patients” sharing fictional testimonials about recovering after following Trump’s advice. One AI version of Rosie O’Donnell says she has suffered from the condition for more than a decade but has begun seeing results after listening to “Dr. Trump.”
An AI-generated John Leguizamo says he had struggled for years before finding help, while AI versions of Whoopi Goldberg, Robert De Niro and Julia Roberts describe overcoming anger, anxiety and stress through Trump’s mock treatment plan.
The video concludes with AI Trump prescribing his tongue-in-cheek remedy: “Turn off fake news, say your prayers, and if you ever feel anxious, have a Diet Coke like me and you’ll see a difference.”
