Did Donald Trump Jr. post a meme of President Trump throwing a dildo onto a women's basketball court from the roof of the White House? Yes, that's true. President Donald Trump's son posted the meme August 7, 2025 on his official Instagram account. It combines a real photo of Trump Senior standing on the White House roof with a photo of a women's game underway, plus other elements.
The claim appeared in a post (archived here) where it was published on X.com on August 7, 2025, with the caption:
Donald Trump Jr. is posting memes about people throwing green dildos at WNBA Games.😭😭😭

Trump Jr.'s Instagram account is verified. He self-identifies as the "Meme Wars General" to his 9.6 million followers. The meme is related to incidents in which people threw dildos onto the floor during WNBA games as reported by Sports Illustrated (archived here) and Front Office Sports (archived here).
President Trump was on the roof of the White House on August 5, 2025, taking questions from reporters, as ABC News reported (archived here), which event is the source of the rooftop photo. The basketball game appears to be an AI-generated image of a generic women's basketball scene, with six players on the court.
