The Trump administration often uses popular culture to advance its fascist agenda.

Last night, the White House posted an AI-generated image of Trump as Master Chief, the protagonist of the video game franchise, Halo, in response to GameStop’s announcement that Halo: Campaign Evolved, formerly an Xbox exclusive, is coming to PlayStation in 2026. In the image, the American flag has the incorrect number of stars.

GameStop posted its own AI-images — one of Trump shaking Master Chief’s hand in the White House and another of Trump as Master Chief.

Gamers have called for a boycott of the company to protest its apparent support of Trump.

“It would be shameful if #BoycottGameStop was trending,” @PawlowskiMario posted.
