Donald Trump supporters are using AI to generate images of the ex-president with cute kittens and adorable ducks in a new and mind-boggling trend.
It all started after an Ohio man made wild and unsubstantiated claims that illegal immigrants from Haiti were eating pets and wild birds.
In response to the bizarre report, MAGA social media users sent X a flood of photos of the ex-president acting as a protector and guardian of the beloved animals.
“President Trump will deport migrants who eat pets,” Trump’s campaign wrote on X Monday in response to the now-viral story. “Kamala Harris will send them to your city next. Take your pick, America.”
And now Trump’s vice presidential nominee, Senator J.D. Vance (Republican of Ohio), is clearing the air about the controversy surrounding the alleged cat-and-duck dinners.

“Months ago I addressed the problem of illegal Haitian immigrants draining social services and causing chaos throughout Springfield, Ohio,” Vance posted on X on Monday, along with a video of him previously speaking about the crisis in the city.
“Reports are coming in that people’s pets have been kidnapped and eaten by people who don’t belong here,” he added, referring to the gruesome stories.
“Where is our border tsar?” the message continued.
In the attached video, Vance reads from a document outlining how the city deals with its Haitian migrant population.
“Springfield has experienced population growth due to immigration, which has had a significant impact on our ability as a community to create adequate housing for everyone,” the Republican said during a Senate hearing.
“The Haitian community in Springfield has grown by 15,000 to 20,000 residents in the past four years, up from less than 60,000 previously.”

“Cats lives matter. Ducks lives matter. Vote Trump to save them,” one user posted on X alongside an image of Trump holding a duck and a cat while wearing a red cape.
“Today, finds from a certain political corner of X: memes of Trump saving cats and ducks from Haitian migrants,” conservative commentator Marina Medvin posted on X.
“I normally find Trump memes annoying but these are well made,” she continued in her post.
Another user on the platform posted an AI-generated image of Trump wearing armor and holding a sword: “Don’t worry, America. Donald Trump is coming to end Kamala’s border policy and defend your cats and ducks.”
But not all AI-generated creations went according to plan.
One image didn’t go according to plan, showing duck-like animals with cat-like heads
One user even generated a cat wearing a MAGA hat
“I asked AI to take a picture of Trump saving the kittens and ducks, and this is the result,” one user posted alongside an image of duck-like animals with cat heads.
“It’s safe to say that we still have some time before AI takes over,” they added.
A Springfield, Ohio resident claims Haitian migrants are beheading and eating ducks in public parks.
The viral posts emerged after a Springfield, Ohio resident claimed he Haitian migrants behead ducks in public parks and eat them.
The Ohio man stood up to raise the issue last month at a city commission meeting about the influx of legal Haitian immigrants.
“I really challenge you to come here and do something,” he said at the meeting.
“These Haitians are running into trash cans, they’re running into buildings… they’re overturning cars in the middle of the street…”
Reports of migrants eating animals such as ducks remain unconfirmed.
“In response to recent reports of criminal activity by immigrants in our city, we want to make it clear that there are no credible reports or specific allegations that pets have been abused, injured or mistreated by individuals within the immigrant community,” the City of Springfield said in a statement to DailyMail.com on Monday.
The man added: ‘They’re in the park, grabbing ducks by the neck, chopping off their heads and walking away with them. They’re eating them.’
