The White House has shared an edited photo of US President Donald Trump in Superman costume which comes after US release of by James Gunn directorial superhero movie - Superman.

In a post on X, the White House stated, “The symbol of hope. Truth. Justice. The American way. Superman Trump.”

Netizens swiftly reacted to the post, with many demanding answers about the Epstein files. The backlash intensified after the Trump administration claimed no Epstein client list exists - a response that angered critics and even drew outrage from some MAGA supporters calling for transparency.

"Massive Distraction Launched by Trump Regime to distract from his long sordid history of child rape and trafficking with Jeffrey Epstein and subsequent cover up. Stay tuned for further embarrassment," a user wrote on social media.

Another user joked, “Amazing. A new age of heroes is among us all.” Another comment read, “If he believed in Truth and Justice the Epstein files would be released and the list would be in jail.”

The fact that the post originated from an official White House account left many users confused, with some raising doubts about the credibility and professionalism of the page.

Recently, the US Department of Justice and FBI released statements related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, clarifying that there was no so-called “client list” implicating high-profile figures.

The Epstein files controversy resurfaced after past remarks by Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel began circulating online.

“It’s sitting on my desk right now to review,” Pam Bondi said in February this year when questioned about the existence of an Epstein client list.
