President Donald Trump called the image ‘super bad’ and said it deserved to be ‘called out’
The POTUS has complained about the ‘super bad picture’ of him that TIME magazine used to immortalize his return from Israel and Egypt, branding it as the worst image of ‘all time’.
On October 13, the 79-year-old travelled to Sharm el-Sheikh in order to sign a declaration for bringing peace to Gaza with 20 other leaders from across the globe, including Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey.
The legislation signing came after his landing in Israel for the release of hostages from Gaza under the ceasefire deal agreed between Israel and Hamas.
As part of the so-called ‘peace plan’, Israel released 250 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences and an additional 1,700 Gazans detained after October 7, 2023.
“I’m good at solving wars. I’m good at making peace,” he said to the BBC about his peace-making efforts at the Egyptian summit.

TIME magazine has since released a cover depicting Trump’s ‘Triumph’, which accompanies an article detailing how the Republican administration ‘sealed’ the Gaza ceasefire deal.
Also, the cover story references envoy Steve Witkoff, former advisor and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, and the ‘painstaking efforts’ they went through to ‘quiet one of the world’s most destabilizing conflicts’.
Though the father-of-five has called the article ‘relatively good’, he has taken issue with the image the outlet chose to promote it.
The photograph is a low-angle shot of Trump taken outside, wearing his signature navy suit and red tie combo.
In spite of TIME magazine hailing the peace deal as a potential ‘signature achievement’ of his second term, and a ‘strategic turning point for the Middle East’, the POTUS is less than impressed.
