Donald Trump’s White House is being blasted online for “ridiculing” and “dehumanising” migrants being deported in shackles in an ASMR-style video posted to its official channels. It comes as Trump declared himself the “King” online, with the White House posting AI-generated images to reiterate his point. Critics say Trump is straddling a fine line between parody and disinformation, with questions around the boundaries of political communication. Vedika Bahl gives the analysis  in Truth or Fake.
