Some Elvis fans were “all shocked” when former President Trump compared himself to the King.
President Joe Biden on Saturday called the 2024 presidential race “the weirdest campaign” he’s ever been a part of — as Trump took to social media to ask his followers if they agreed he looked like Elvis Presley.
Trump shared a photo of half his face with half of Presley in a post to Truth Social Saturday, writing, “For years, people have said that Elvis and I look alike. Now this picture has spread everywhere. What do you think?”
It’s unclear what prompted Trump to share the strange mash-up image, which prompted many social media users to ask the former president: “Are You Lonesome Tonight?”
Few confirmed Trump’s belief that he resembled Presley — and many were quick to mock him by posting an edit of half his face alongside Adolf Hitler, Vladimir Putin and an ooma loompa.

“Trump says he’s an Elvis lookalike. Hopefully he’ll soon be doing Jailhouse Rock. #TrumpIsNotWell,” one social media user write on X.
An account called Republicans Against Trump shared the post along with the Mayo Clinic’s definition of narcissistic personality disorder.
Democratic strategist Johnny Palmadessa wrote Trump “clearly has dementia,” listing the many mistakes Trump has made during the campaign, including speaking as if former President Barack Obama were still in office and mixing up GOP nominee Nikki Haley with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

“He said he “won” his fraud trial in New York, but the trial is over. He lost. He only compares himself to Elvis because he believes they “look alike.” Donald Trump needs to get out of the race. He needs to get help,” he wrote.
Former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann had a similar response, writing, “Dementia J. Trump is now trying to convince his cult that he is somehow like Elvis Presley. You mean both have been brain dead since 1977? You bet!”
One more user X joked, “If you believe Trump looks like Elvis do yourself a favor and leave any bar by closing time.”

The 77-year-old former president’s strange social media posts followed Biden’s remarks on Saturday about his opponent’s erratic behavior.
“I feel good about where we are, I really am,” Biden said during a speech in Wilmington, Del., near his family’s home, according to The Hill. “You know, people are starting to focus and the guy we’re fighting, he’s — he’s not for nothing, he’s against everything.”
“And no, I mean that, it’s the weirdest campaign I’ve ever done, even worse in terms of behavior than the last time in 2020,” he added.

Biden won the South Carolina Democratic primary on Saturday.
The Palmetto State won’t hold its Republican primary until Feb. 24, when Trump will face former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley.
Trump now leads Haley by 26% in the polls there.
