The former president has long been mocked for his iconic hair and unmistakable orange glow, but now he’s getting dragged for something even more bizarre: his iPhone lock screen.

Of all the things to go viral this week… it’s Donald Trump’s phone lock screen. So, what does the former president have as his wallpaper? Hint: it’s very on brand.

The man who many claims is running the free world has a photo of himself as his lock screen. Not his kids. Not his wife. Just Trump — in all his glory, pointing dramatically toward the camera.

The moment went viral after sharp-eyed social media users spotted the screen as Trump stepped off Air Force One on May 30. A Reuters photo caught the exact moment, and online sleuths quickly zoomed in. The image? A solo Trump in his signature pose, a photo that traces back to 2019 during his first term.

Reactions online were immediate — and brutal.

“Trump’s lock screen was spotted on his phone last night—and it was a photo of himself. Is that not one of the most narcissistic, self-absorbed things you’ve ever seen??? Not his family, not his kids, but himself. Wtf…,” one user wrote.

“Trump having a photo of himself on his lock screen is the Trumpiest thing ever,” another said.

“Trump actually has his own image as his phone’s screen saver. What a narcissistic pathetic loser. Says so much,” a third weighed in.

The account Republicans Against Trump also had plenty to say:

“Donald Trump’s iPhone lock screen was spotted over the weekend. Yep, it’s a photo of himself. Of course it is.”

Elon Musk’s fury

While the lock screen moment might be a silly distraction, it comes at a time when Trump is already facing serious political heat — and even his former tech-world ally Elon Musk is turning up the pressure.

Musk, once seen as a powerful behind-the-scenes Trump supporter, unloaded on the president after Trump’s massive $4 trillion debt limit bill passed the House.

“I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore,” Musk wrote on June 3 on X.

“This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.”

Musk didn’t stop there — he threatened to “fire” anyone who backed the bill and called it a national disgrace. For Trump, it marked one of the loudest rebukes yet from a former ally with serious influence.

Amid the backlash, the image of Trump proudly sporting his own face as his wallpaper has become the perfect symbol of the week’s chaos — and maybe even of the man himself.

As one user on X put it best:

“The most on-brand thing that ever on-branded. Trump’s lock screen is, of course, a picture of Trump.”
