Trump teases superhero-themed announcement

Former US president Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he would make a “major announcement” the following day. He accompanied the message with a video depicting himself as a cartoon superhero.

“America needs a superhero,” Trump said in a video posted to his social media platform, Truth Social. The message was followed with a likeness of Trump emerging from his Trump Tower property in New York, tearing his suit jacket open to reveal a superhero costume underneath.
