The Internet Reacts to Donald Trump’s Comparison with Elvis Presley
Former United States President Donald Trump recently asked his followers on the social media platform Truth Social if they think he resembles the legendary American singer Elvis Presley.
He shared a picture showing half of his face alongside half of Elvis Presley’s face, sparking a conversation among internet users.
In the post, Trump mentioned, “For so many years, people have been saying that Elvis and I look alike. Now this picture has been going all over the place.

Democratic strategist Johnny Palmadessa expressed concerns about Trump’s statements, suggesting that he might have dementia. Palmadessa pointed out various mistakes made by Trump during the campaign, such as confusing names and making inaccurate statements about ongoing events.
“He says he’s ‘winning’ his New York fraud trial, but the trial is over. He lost. He just compared himself to Elvis because he believes they ‘look alike’. Donald Trump needs to drop out of the race. He needs to seek help,” Palmadessa stated on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Similarly, former MSNBC anchor Keith Olbermann commented on the situation, referring to Trump as “Dementia J Trump” and suggesting that the comparison to Elvis Presley might be related to both figures being inactive since 1977.
This unusual social media post by the 77-year-old former president followed comments from President Joe Biden, who spoke about Trump’s erratic behavior during a speech in Wilmington, Delaware. Biden mentioned, “I am feeling good about where we are, and no, I mean it, this is the weirdest campaign I’ve ever worked on, and his behavior has gotten worse since we last did this in 2020.
The online discussion about Trump’s comparison to Elvis Presley continues, with various reactions and interpretations from internet users.
