Trump AI 'King' Video Prompts Loggins Demand

President Trump posted an AI-generated video on Truth Social depicting himself as a crown-wearing pilot dumping brown liquid from a fighter jet onto No Kings protesters, set to Kenny Loggins’s “Danger Zone.” Kenny Loggins demanded immediate removal of his recording as an unauthorized use. The clip, which included real protest footage, drew widespread outrage from civil liberties groups, protesters and many commentators, while some allies — including Vice President J.D. Vance and House Speaker Mike Johnson — defended or downplayed it as satire and the White House communications account responded with a Top Gun meme. The post revived disputes over politicians’ use of music and raised legal and ethical questions about AI-generated political content. It followed massive No Kings demonstrations that organizers say drew millions nationwide.
