Donald Trump is back in the headlines after cameras captured a surprising image: his phone lock screen, which features a close-up of his own face.
At 78, the president continues to attract attention—especially following the resignation of Elon Musk, who stepped down from Trump’s Republican administration on May 29.
Controversy continues to surround Trump’s $175 billion missile defense system, nicknamed the “Golden Dome.” The ambitious project has triggered global concern. Meanwhile, Trump has also launched a trade dispute with Canada, even going so far as to suggest turning the country into America’s 51st state.
The situation escalated when Trump claimed Canada was “considering” the idea—something Canadian officials have neither confirmed nor denied. As if that weren’t enough, the revelation of his phone wallpaper—a stern photo of himself pointing at the camera—has sparked online debate.
Reactions were quick and sharp. One social media user called it “the most on-brand thing that ever on-branded.” Others mocked the absence of family photos, calling it narcissistic. One comment read, “Not his wife, not his children, not his grandchildren… himself.”
Still, not everyone found it problematic. Some argued that many people use photos of themselves. A Medium article even suggested such choices reflect confidence or self-love. The author wrote, “It can be narcissistic, but also a form of self-expression.” For Trump, it seems fitting—both admired and criticized, always unmissable.
