We might never get the alleged Donald Trump pee tape, but thanks to generative AI and someone with access to displays in the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), we now have the feet tape. An AI-generated video depicting Donald Trump absolutely smothering Elon Musk’s weird feet with his whole mouth with a text overlay that read “Long Live The Real King” ran on a loop on TVs throughout the agency’s headquarters this morning, according to multiple reports and eye-witnesses.
Marisa Kabas, independent journalist and author of The Handbasket, shared a video of the clip as it appeared on a HUD TV Monday morning. Per Kabas, the clip played about five minutes before someone finally stopped it. “Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs,” she wrote on Bluesky.

The video was confirmed by the Washington Post reporter Jeff Stein, who received pictures that showed the video of Trump slurping on Musk’s toes could be seen on TVs throughout HUD’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. Stein’s paper ran a story about the situation in which it labeled the video “possibly AI-generated”—which hey, you gotta be careful these days, you can never quite be sure what’s real and what isn’t. We cannot say with 100% certainty that this is not a genuine video of President Donald Trump sucking on Musk’s little piggies. Likewise, there’s no way to know for sure whether Elon Musk actually has two left feet, as the video shows.
The text in the video, “Long Live The Real King,” is likely in reference to last week’s inexplicable news cycle in which Trump declared himself King and then the official White House social accounts all shared images of Trump wearing a crown with the caption “Long Live The King”—one of those things that happens in a Trump news cycle where it seems like it’s kinda a big deal but also it disappears almost immediately because something else absolutely bonkers happens, like, I don’t know, podcaster Dan Bongino getting named deputy director at the FBI. Anyway, the video shows Trump kissing the toe ring of Musk, who is depicted as the real king.
It’s understandable why members of HUD might be at the start of a rebellion against the king. Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency has its eyes on HUD and is reportedly planning to slash as much as half of the agency’s workforce while gutting its funding. It’s never really a good time for that, but now is a particularly bad time: The cost of purchasing a home recently hit an all-time high, rent prices keep climbing as available units shrink, and the growing frequency of extreme weather has increased the need for rebuilding after disaster.
Whoever at HUD decided to put together this video of Musk getting his feet lathered in Trump slobber is going to have a lot to report in their weekly email to Musk detailing what they accomplished this week. It’s only Monday and they’ve already done so much!
