A hidden figure spotted in an AI image shared by President Donald Trump has sparked end-times speculation online.

Trump posted the AI-generated artwork on Truth Social, showing himself dressed in red and white robes in a Jesus-like pose, appearing to heal a man as American symbols, including the flag, military personnel and fighter jets, fill the background.

But viewers quickly zeroed in on a shadowy figure high above the scene, which some claimed resembled a winged being with three horns, imagery they linked to biblical prophecy.

The figure appears suspended between soldiers, with what looks like large wings and three horn-like shapes rising from its head.

Social media users likened the imagery to the warning in Daniel 7, which describes a rising ruler who overthrows three kings or kingdoms as he gains power, though the biblical text does not identify which nations those kingdoms represent.

‘I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another little horn… and three of the first horns were uprooted before it,’ reads Daniel 7:8.

‘Three horns subdued in Revelation. That’s what WW3 is about, subduing or destroying three kingdoms, it seems,’ one user shared.

Trump shared the AI-generated image after attacking Pope Leo, accusing the Church leader of being ‘weak on crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy,’ and claimed that ‘if I [weren’t] in the White House, Leo wouldn’t be in the Vatican.’

The Book of Daniel is often considered the ‘prophetic twin’ to the Book of Revelation, as both are major apocalyptic books of the Bible that many believers see as outlining end-time events.

Daniel is viewed as the Old Testament foundation, while Revelation is seen as its New Testament counterpart, using similar imagery, symbols and themes.

Daniel 7 describes a vision of powerful kingdoms rising and falling, symbolized by beasts and horns, before God ultimately judges them and establishes his eternal kingdom.

Specifically, Daniel 7:8 introduces a ‘little horn’ that rises among others and uproots three kings or kingdoms, imagery many prophecy interpreters associate with the rise of a dominant ruler before the end of the age.

That symbolism quickly became a focal point in online discussions surrounding the image.

Many social media users noted that while Trump himself did not post the AI-generated image on his account, suggesting a social media manager likely did, one person wrote: ‘The reference to the antichrist was intentional.’

However, some users insisted that Trump was not portraying himself as the Antichrist but rather as a figure meant to draw attention and division.
