President Trump posted a wild AI-generated video late Tuesday that showed him chasing, tackling and befriending a Siberian tiger, hours after he had warned his Truth Social followers: “Don’t ever mess with nature!”
The president initially posted gruesome video Tuesday afternoon of the beast fatally savaging 23-year-old William Chapman at Yorkshire Wildlife Park in Doncaster, England over the weekend, accompanied by his admonition.
About eight hours later, Trump posted the artificial clip, which began with himself on the ground in Chapman’s place.
The altered video then showed the president — in full blue suit and red tie — pursuing the big cat before playfully wrestling with it and grabbing it in a bear hug.
There was no message accompanying the AI generated video, which was posted after the president finished addressing a pre-midterm election rally in Alaska.
Chapman’s family said Tuesday their loved one suffered from “significant mental illness” and asked local authorities to figure out why their loved one jumped into the tiger enclosure shortly before his death.
