White House trolls Jon Hamm by turning him into a meme praising Trump
Share and Follow

Hollywood icon and Democrat advocate Jon Hamm has unexpectedly found himself featured in a White House promotional video aimed at supporting Donald Trump.

The clip, which stars Hamm from the Apple series “Your Friends and Neighbors,” was shared by the Trump administration on social media over the weekend.

Opening with an image of Trump, the video transitions to a scene of Hamm joyfully dancing with his eyes shut in a nightclub setting.

This particular nightclub scene, accompanied by Kato’s 2010 track “Turn the Lights Off,” has become a viral meme, which the White House has cleverly incorporated into their marketing efforts.

In the video, a slogan hovers above Hamm’s head, declaring: “When someone says America is the hottest country anywhere in the world.”

The video is captioned ‘ALL WE NEEDED WAS A NEW PRESIDENT.’

As of Sunday night, it had been viewed more than one million times.

In the video, the vision of Hamm dancing fades into a dark screen, which is then replaced by an outline of the White House and the United States flag.

A message appears which reads: ‘The White House. Donald J. Trump.’

Hamm famously supported Democratic candidate Lucas Kunce during the 2024 Senate election in his home state of Missouri.

He narrated an ad for the Democrat, during which he took aim at Republican Josh Hawley over his actions during the January 6 attack on the Capitol. 

Back in 2012, he endorsed Barack Obama and attended a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton in her failed 2016 campaign against Trump.

Then in January 2024, Hamm endorsed Democrat Adam Schiff during the United States Senate elections in California.

Hamm is not the first celebrity, nor outspoken Democrat, to be caught up in a seemingly unauthorized ad for the Trump administration.

Earlier this month, pop superstar Sabrina Carpenter went to war with the administration over its use of her song ‘Juno’ in a video promoting Immigrations and Customs Enforcement deportations.

She described the video as ‘evil and disgusting’ and warned: ‘Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.’

White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson hit back, using Carpenter’s own lyrics against her.

‘Here’s a Short n’ Sweet message for Sabrina Carpenter: we won’t apologize for deporting dangerous criminal illegal murderers, rapists, and pedophiles from our country,’ Jackson said.

‘Anyone who would defend these sick monsters must be stupid, or is it slow?’ she added, referencing Carpenter’s number one hit, Manchild.

Since that altercation, the White House has repeatedly tried to bait Carpenter further by making several references to her music and guest appearances on shows like SNL.

Similarly, the administration targeted fellow pop star Olivia Rodrigo, using her song ‘All American B***h’ to promote a different deportation video.

She warned: ‘Don’t ever use my songs to promote your racist, hateful propaganda.’

In October, singer Kenny Loggins voiced his opposition to Trump’s use of his 1986 track Danger Zone in a trolling AI video posted as a retort to nationwide No Kings protests. 

While the White House’s social media posts are usually met with frenzied support from MAGA fans, Saturday’s faced a tougher crowd on the back of the limited and redacted release of the Epstein files.

‘Gotta love those redacted Epstein Files, expensive groceries, companies selling to China because of Tariff debt, oh and the additional $2 trillion dollars added to the debt in less than 1 year,’ one critic said.

‘All we need was all the Epstein files,’ another added, sharing a highly publicized photo of Trump posing with disgraced billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein.
