Trump mocks ‘Barack Hussein Obama Library’ with AI image of site overrun with trash and sprawling homeless encampments

President Trump shared an AI-generated image on Truth Social Saturday depicting the Barack Obama Presidential Center in Chicago with a trash bag on its roof and surrounded by homeless encampments, mocking the $850 million facility as "fully matured" in 10 years. The president has repeatedly criticized the Obama library, calling it "very unattractive" and "seriously over budget," while proposing his own presidential library in Miami as a hotel with an Air Force One jet in the lobby.

President Trump is no fan of the newly minted Barack Obama Presidential Center in Chicago.

The $850 million library and museum, which is set to open on Juneteenth on the South Side of Chicago, has attracted the scorn of Trump before, who’s called it a “very unattractive building that is seriously late and seriously over budget.”

The president shared an AI-generated image Saturday of the towering monument looming over a low-income Chicago neighborhood with a gigantic trash bag draped across its roof.

“The Barack Hussein Obama Library, in 10 years, when fully matured!” Trump trolled on his Truth Social platform.

It’s not the first time he’s called the building literal trash.

Last Saturday, he shared a different fabricated image of the Obama Center, that one of a larger-than-life trash can in a parking lot, under the headline “The Obama Presidential Library” on Truth Social.

“I don’t believe in building libraries or museums … like the Barack Hussein Obama one in Chicago,” Trump told reporters at the White House in March, when he unveiled the renderings for his in Miami.

Trump said his presidential library was “most likely going to be a hotel with a beautiful building underneath and a 747 Air Force One in the lobby.”
