  • On Dec. 14, 2022, former U.S. President Donald Trump touted what he billed would be a major announcement with the teaser America needs a superhero. The announcement, which was to be made the following day, was pushed by pro-Trump social media accounts to build hype. Speculation ensued. Perhaps Trump — who had already announced another run for president — would be announcing his running mate for the upcoming 2024 presidential election? Perhaps he was making a triumphant return to Twitter? Neither of these guesses would be correct, it turns out. Trump's major announcement — made on his own social media platform Truth Social on Dec. 15, 2022 — was the release of what he described as my official Donald Trump Digital Trading Card collection: The former president also released a video advertisement: According to the website selling these photoshopped images of Donald Trump in superhero form, these are the only such cards officially licensed and approved by Donald Trump: While these cards may be licensed by Trump, this contest is apparently unrelated to any Trump family member, Trump campaign, or Trump Organization-related business. It is sponsored by a company named NFT INT LLC: Because, however, Trump's major announcement was the existence of this actual sweepstake contest and associated digital image collection, the claim is True.
