The Trump White House drew backlash online Wednesday after sharing yet another AI-generated video, which this time critics said mocked the seriousness of Donald Trump<\/a>\u2019s ongoing Iran war.<\/p>\n

The 34-second clip begins with ESPN footage of U.S. bowling star Pete Weber hitting a strike, before cutting to an animated video of bowling pins representing Iranian regime officials being destroyed by a bowling ball emblazoned with the American flag.<\/p>\n

It then switches to actual footage of Iranian targets being destroyed.<\/p>\n

\u201cSTRIKE,\u201d the White House proudly captioned the video, adding explosion and bald eagle emojis.<\/p>\n

The post quickly sparked criticism across social media, with many accusing the administration of trivializing the conflict, in which seven U.S. service members have been killed and around 140 injured, so far.<\/p>\n

\u201cExtremely cringeworthy. I am so embarrassed,\u201d said one<\/a> commenter.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy God, is this really what this country has become?\u201d asked another<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A third said<\/a>: \u201cThe White House reduces the seriousness of war to a bowling alley. Absolutely shameful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Added a fourth<\/a>, \u201cYou are paying more for electricity so Trump\u2019s White House can post this AI slop.\u201d And another said<\/a>, \u201cI still can\u2019t believe these idiots are running the country. Into the fucking ground.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Trump White House drew backlash online Wednesday after sharing yet another AI-generated video, which this time critics…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":519259,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[12,88,801,3123],"class_list":["post-519258","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-donald-trump","tag-entertainment","tag-iran","tag-white-house"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/519258","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=519258"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/519258\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/519259"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=519258"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=519258"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=519258"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
