Trump Shares AI-Generated Video Of Obama’s “Arrest” Without Disclaimer, Escalates Claims Of Election Fraud

US President Donald Trump posted an AI-generated video depicting former President Barack Obama being arrested by FBI agents in the Oval Office, escalating his ongoing attacks against the former leader, the NDTV reported.

The video, shared on Trump’s platform Truth Social, opens with a fabricated Obama quote: “Especially the President is above the law.” It then cuts to various politicians declaring, “No one is above the law,” before showing an AI-generated clip of Obama being handcuffed by FBI agents. 

Trump appears seated in the room, smiling as the “arrest” unfolds. The video ends with an image of Obama in an orange prison jumpsuit behind bars.

The post came without any disclaimer indicating the video was fictional, drawing sharp criticism online. Critics labeled the move “deeply irresponsible,” warning of the dangers of spreading manipulated media.

This post follows Trump’s recent accusation that Obama was involved in “high-level election fraud.” Last week, US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard added fuel to the controversy, claiming she had “striking” and “overwhelming” evidence that former Obama administration officials fabricated the Trump-Russia collusion narrative after the 2016 election.

“Americans will finally learn the truth about how in 2016, intelligence was politicised and weaponised by the most powerful people in the Obama administration to lay the groundwork for what was essentially a years-long coup against President Donald Trump,” Gabbard wrote on X.

However, a 114-page report released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) contradicts those claims.

It states that before the 2016 election, the Intelligence Community believed Russia was “probably not trying to influence the election by using cyber means,” and a December 2016 intelligence brief noted that Russia “did not impact recent US election results.”
