President Donald Trump posted an AI-generated video showing himself as a U.S. Olympic hockey hero, scoring the winning goal against Canada. The video, shared early Monday, depicted Trump shoving Canadian defenders and punching one before celebrating the victory. Trump's post followed the U.S. team's gold medal win in overtime on Sunday.

This comes amid heightened tensions between the U.S. and Canada, with the White House earlier trolling its northern neighbor. The administration had previously mocked former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after Canada's Four Nations Face-Off victory last year, when Trudeau declared, "You can't take our country — and you can't take our game." The tournament occurred as Trump threatened tariffs and suggested making Canada the 51st state.

Trump's video drew criticism for its tone-deaf celebration during international competition. The president had previously attacked U.S. freestyle skier Hunter Hess as a "loser" for expressing conflicted feelings about representing America. This pattern of behavior has drawn rebukes from both political opponents and some conservatives, highlighting the administration's combative approach to international sports and diplomacy.
