Trump channels Jedi spirit in white house's Star Wars tribute

    
• May 4 is a day that "Star Wars" fans celebrate as the series' holiday, which inspired the White House to publish an unusual graphic.
• Donald Trump was depicted as a Jedi warrior.
• The post on the White House profile also included references to political opponents, comparing them to the Empire from "Star Wars."

"Happy May the 4th to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting so hard to to bring Sith Lords, Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, & well known MS-13 Gang Members, back into our Galaxy. You’re not the Rebellion—you’re the Empire" - a post with this content appeared on the White House profile on the X service.

Below the text, a graphic was published where Donald Trump looks like a muscular Jedi warrior from "Star Wars."

The phrase "May the 4th be with you" also refers to the already iconic line "May the Force be with you," which recurs in the film series.

The date of publication is not coincidental. May 4 is an unofficial holiday for Star Wars fans. The date was chosen from the phonetic transformation of the film's phrase "May the Force be with You!" which sounds similar to "May the 4th be with You!"

The White House, in a previous post, also highlighted that on May 4, 1942, the Battle of the Coral Sea began, resulting in a monumental victory for the Allied forces and becoming a turning point in the Pacific during World War II.

This is not the first instance where the American president's administration presents surprising or even controversial posters.

Late Friday evening, Trump posted on social media a graphic where he is seated on a gilded chair in a white papal cassock. This is a clear reference to his words a few days ago when he joked about wanting to become the pope.
