White House Social Media Promotes Mass Deportation with 'Analog Horror' Imagery and Pop Music
The White House social media apparatus has recently utilized a grainy, 'analog horror'-style image of President Trump on the White House roof, accompanied by the repeated phrase 'DEPORT. DEPORT. DEPORT. DEPORT.' This image, which first circulated online in the summer of 2025, depicts President Trump in a shadowy, almost ominous manner, surveying the site for a proposed new ballroom. The administration's use of this image on August 18, 2026, is seen as an amplification of President Trump's immigration policies, particularly his promise of mass deportations. The White House's social media strategy has also controversially incorporated popular songs from artists like Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter, and Olivia Rodrigo to promote these policies, often despite the artists' explicit objections.
