New Delhi, March 27: The White House has triggered confusion and backlash after sharing a string of cryptic, pixelated posts on social media. One blurred image appears to resemble US President Donald Trump, but its distorted look has left users questioning its purpose.
The viral posts, uploaded on X, has crossed 20 million views, with over 10,000 comments. Instead of sparking curiosity, it has drawn sharp criticism. “I’m confused by the plot,” one user wrote, reflecting the general sentiment online.

Several users expressed anger over the timing of such posts. “What the f*ck is this?! Weirdo trolling when there’s a political race going on is one thing, it’s a completely different thing when American lives are on the line… This isn’t a f-king game,” one comment read.
The backlash comes as the US faces major challenges, including the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict, which has resulted in over 2,000 deaths and disrupted global energy supply chains. At the same time, a funding standoff involving the Department of Homeland Security has left Transportation Security Administration officers unpaid.
With no clarification from the White House, the posts continue to fuel speculation and criticism online.
