Trump Trolls World Leaders Again with a Map Picture Inside the Oval Office

President Donald Trump reshared an AI-generated image on Truth Social on Monday that depicts Canada, Greenland, and Venezuela as part of the United States, drawing renewed attention to his past comments and positions on territorial expansion, trade pressure, and national security.

The image shows Trump standing alongside several European leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, while pointing to a map that visually incorporates the three foreign territories into the United States. Trump did not include a caption with the post.

The reshared image follows a pattern of previous posts and remarks by Trump involving Greenland and Canada, both of which he has publicly discussed in terms of strategic importance, trade leverage, and U.S. security interests.

Greenland, a self-governing territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, has been a recurring focus for Trump, who has argued that the island plays a critical role in Arctic defense amid concerns about Russian and Chinese activity in the region.

Discussions regarding Greenland’s future status have taken place between U.S. and Danish officials, though no agreement has been reached. Greenland’s Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt said late last week that negotiations remain in early stages.

“There is going to be a long track, so where we are going to land at the end, it’s too early to say,” Motzfeldt said Saturday.

Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen described recent discussions with U.S. officials as constructive.

“Very constructive atmosphere and tone and new meetings are planned,” Rasmussen said.

Trump has previously said Greenland is vital to American and global security interests and has suggested economic or strategic measures to secure closer U.S. involvement with the territory.

While he has floated various ideas publicly, Trump later clarified that military force would not be used to acquire the island.

Earlier this month, Trump referenced Greenland during remarks at the Alfalfa Club’s black-tie dinner in Washington, D.C., where he spoke jokingly about territorial expansion.

“We’re not going to invade Greenland. We’re going to buy it,” Trump said, according to an observer at the event and reported by The Washington Post.

He continued by adding comments that also referenced Canada and Venezuela.

“It’s never been my intention to make Greenland the 51st state. I want to make Canada the 51st state. Greenland will be the 52nd state. Venezuela can be 53rd.”

“I never had any intention of making Greenland the 51st state. I want to make Canada the 51st state. Greenland will be the 52nd. Venezuela could become the 53rd.”

Trump’s remarks about Canada have previously drawn pushback from Canadian officials.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney addressed the issue directly during a May meeting with Trump in the Oval Office.

“As you know from real estate, there are some places that are never for sale,” Carney told Trump.

“Canada is not for sale, and will never be for sale.”

Trump has also used trade pressure as leverage in discussions involving Greenland, at one point threatening tariffs on European nations before later walking back those statements.

He has referred to himself as the “tariff king” while arguing that economic pressure can be used to protect U.S. interests abroad.

The reshared image also follows earlier instances in which Trump posted AI-generated content depicting symbolic U.S. control over Greenland, including images showing him planting an American flag on the island.

Those posts similarly drew attention but were not accompanied by policy announcements or formal proposals.

The inclusion of Venezuela in the latest image marks a departure from Trump’s previous Greenland-focused posts.

Venezuela has been the subject of U.S. sanctions and diplomatic pressure in recent years, though Trump has not publicly outlined any territorial ambitions involving the country.

The White House did not issue a formal statement in response to the image, and Trump has not commented publicly on its intent or meaning. Foreign governments referenced in the image have not issued official responses.

Trump’s Truth Social activity has frequently included provocative imagery and statements, often without additional explanation.

The reshared map comes as Trump continues to engage with world leaders on trade, defense, and foreign policy while using social media to communicate directly with the public.
