To take president Donald Trump\u2019s word for it, America\u2019s cities are in ruins, forcing him to deploy federal troops to Portland<\/a>, Washington DC<\/a>, and Memphis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s just one wrinkle \u2014 no one seems to be able to find any real evidence of the mass riots and anarchist violence that Trump and his supporters insist is destroying the nation. Luckily for them, that problem is easily solved with a little help from AI.<\/p>\n

The phenomenon was first flagged by Gizmodo<\/em><\/a>, which reported a concerning rise in AI-generated pro-Trump propaganda since the release of OpenAI\u2019s Sora 2<\/a>, an AI video generator capable of spitting out short, nearly photorealistic clips.<\/p>\n

For example, Giz <\/em>notes how one <\/strong>clip, showing a protestor harassing a US national guardsman before getting pepper sprayed, went viral on Instagram<\/a>, notching nearly 1.5 million likes and over 40 million views. Most of the comments seem oblivious to the fact it was bearing a Sora watermark.<\/p>\n

\u201cBest video I saw Today , [sic] let\u2019s see more of those scum bags being taken down,\u201d wrote one user. \u201cI love a feel good video like this,\u201d enthused another.<\/p>\n

And a poster on X-formerly-Twitter uploaded a AI-generated video montage of various protestors hollering in police officers\u2019 faces. \u201cNo Queso! No cheese!\u201d they heckle, a mocking variation on a popular protest chant<\/a>, before getting blasted in the face with mace. \u201cLmfao, that was beautiful and before you ask I voted for this!\u201d the caption reads.<\/p>\n

Lmfao, that was beautiful and before you ask I voted \"\ud83d\udcaf\" for this!! pic.twitter.com\/O6VLFZnw3i<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 \"\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\"Steve2A\"\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\"God\"\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\"Family\"\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\"Country\"\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\" (@lakemonstercl1) October 7, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

In each case, the unruly crowd is decked out in black attire \u2014 a stereotype playing on the black bloc protest tactic<\/a> \u2014 and angrily spitting at the heavily militarized officers, who remain stoic before they attack with chemical spray.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a fascinating look into the effort to drum up consent for an unprecedented crackdown<\/a> on American cities, a campaign Trump happily calls<\/a> a \u201cwar.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Giz<\/em> points out, the whole thing is especially noteworthy given that violent crime<\/a> in the US is in reality at the lowest it\u2019s been in decades. And while urban areas are typically known as havens for progressive activists, the throngs of violent revolutionaries the White House has made its cause du jour simply don\u2019t seem to exist<\/a>. (There is plenty of violence<\/a> on America\u2019s streets, to be clear, but there\u2019s no evidence that it\u2019s coming from the left at any disproportionate scale.)<\/p>\n

As such, Trump\u2019s deployment of national guard troops to DC<\/a> is telling. After their deployment, the guardsmen quickly ran out of fictional anarchist cells to topple, and were instead put to work cleaning up trash<\/a> at a cost of over $1 million<\/a> per day.<\/p>\n

How long this circus can go on for is anyone\u2019s guess \u2014 but with AI tools like Sora setting the stage, it might be a while.<\/p>\n
