Trump faces backlash for using a military funeral photo in a fundraising email, calling ABC News "corrupt" and escalating tensions with female reporters.
On March 16, 2026, President Donald Trump faced backlash for using a photo from a dignified transfer ceremony—showing him saluting the casket of six U.S. service members killed in the Iran conflict—for a political fundraising email.
During a press briefing aboard Air Force One, he dismissed a reporter’s question about the appropriateness of the image, claimed he hadn’t seen the email, and launched a personal attack on ABC News, calling it “one of the worst, most fake, most corrupt” networks.
He refused further questions from the outlet, escalating a pattern of confrontational exchanges with female journalists.
The incident intensified scrutiny over the use of solemn military imagery for political gain amid rising U.S. military casualties in the Iran conflict.
