— Donald J. Trump shared a vertically split, composite photograph featuring a fictional character on his social media platform.

Here is the full post on truthsocial: “truthsocial post containing one image showing: Tooth, Fictional character, Film.” on November 1, 2026 at 9:20 PM ET.

This is Trump’s 53rd message released today, and the last post was 2 hours ago, and it is not part of a thread. On average, Trump produces 18 posts per day since his inauguration on January 20, 2025. The move fits a broader pattern in Trump’s recent messaging, with 162 of his 1027 posts over the last 30 days classified as Image Only Posts.

The visual consists of a vertically split, composite photograph merging two halves. The image features a fictional character and a tooth, resembling a still from a film. Trump mentioned the source (see truthsocial).

President Trump is the author of The Art of the Deal, Think Like a Billionaire, and Think Big. Analyst and Trump supporter Rod Martin points to The Art of the Deal, Trump's 1987 book, as an explanation of his deal-making philosophy: making big announcements, pivoting often in public statements and, Martin says, ultimately getting what he wanted all along. Critics contend that Trump's books were published decades ago or were aimed at making money, not shedding light. "Generally," Martin said, "critics don't read The Art of the Deal. If they did, they would understand."
