Vanity Fair’s Scathing Donald Trump Cover Goes Viral After 2024 Election Win

Vanity Fair has released a provocative cover featuring Donald Trump following his victory in the 2024 US presidential election. The cover, which has gone viral, highlights Trump’s extensive legal and financial troubles alongside his electoral triumph. The image shows a close-up of Trump’s face with a stern expression, accompanied by a list of his legal issues: “34 felony counts, 1 conviction, 2 pending cases, 2 impeachments, and 6 bankruptcies.”

The cover also includes the phrase “4 more years. The 47th American President,” underscoring Trump’s return to the White House despite his tumultuous past. This move by Vanity Fair is seen as a stark contrast to Trump’s celebratory tone, as he described his victory as a “magnificent victory for the American people” and promised a “golden age of America.”

Trump’s campaign was marked by divisive rhetoric, conspiracy theories, and anti-LGBTQ+ statements, which have been widely criticized. His victory over Democratic rival Kamala Harris has sparked significant debate and reaction, both domestically and internationally. The Republicans also regained control of the Senate and are likely to maintain their hold on the House of Representatives.

The cover has elicited strong reactions on social media, with some users praising the magazine for highlighting factual information about Trump’s past, while others have criticized it as biased and unfair. The post on X (formerly Twitter) has garnered over 1.3 million likes and numerous comments reflecting the deep divisions within the public.

Vanity Fair’s long-standing criticism of Trump and his policies has been evident, particularly during his first term when there was a notable feud between Trump and the magazine’s then-editor, Graydon Carter. The current cover continues this critical stance, reflecting the ongoing controversy surrounding Trump’s presidency.
