White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino is facing fierce backlash — even from fellow Republicans — over a social media post depicting him in a tuxedo, sloshing champagne with some glamorous party pals as Americans grapple with a deepening cost-of-living crisis linked to the Iran War and the Trump administration’s tariffs.
Scavino shared the apparent AI-generated video depicting him and who appears to be his second wife, Erin Elmore, and Lara Trump, grinning in ballgowns while they are pushed on a gold luggage cart through the White House by Eric Trump to Pitbull’s “Don’t Stop the Party.” Gold confetti falls before a jubilant President Donald Trump enters the scene.
