Trump Shares Indiana Fever Image on Truth Social
Trump posts a sticker-style image of a woman in an Indiana Fever jersey, pointing at the viewer.
WASHINGTON D.C. — Donald J. Trump posted an image connected to the Indiana Fever, the WNBA franchise based in Indianapolis, on Truth Social.
The image shows a woman with blonde hair wearing a dark navy basketball jersey with “INDIANA” printed in gold text across the chest. The jersey features gold and red trim and a “ Lilly” sponsor patch, consistent with the Indiana Fever uniform. The woman points directly at the viewer in a style reminiscent of classic motivational imagery. The sticker-style cutout format suggests the graphic was designed for social media or fan engagement.
Here is the full post on truthsocial: “Llicly INDIANA” on October 14, 2026 at 8:49 PM ET.
This is Trump’s 5th message released today, and the last post was 2 hours ago, and it is not part of a thread. On average, Trump produces 18 posts per day since his inauguration on January 20, 2025. The move fits a broader pattern in Trump’s recent messaging, with 31 of his 558 posts over the last 30 days classified as uncategorized posts.
The post’s text appears to be a partial rendering of the jersey’s sponsor logo and team name visible in the image. “Llicly” corresponds to the Eli Lilly sponsorship patch on the upper left chest of the jersey, while “INDIANA” matches the team name emblazoned across the front. No additional caption or commentary accompanied the image.
The Indiana Fever compete in the WNBA’s Eastern Conference. Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY), the pharmaceutical giant headquartered in Indianapolis, serves as the team’s jersey sponsor. Trump did not identify the player depicted in the image, and no jersey number is visible in the graphic.
The post offered no explanation for the timing or purpose of the image. Trump did not tag any players, teams, or organizations in the post. No further context about why the image was shared accompanied the graphic on his truthsocial account.

President Trump is the author of Trump: The Art of the Deal, Trump: Think Like a Billionaire: Everything You Need to Know About Success, Real Estate, and Life, and Think Big: Make It Happen in Business and Life. Analyst and Trump supporter Rod Martin points to The Art of the Deal, Trump's 1987 book, as an explanation of his deal-making philosophy: making big announcements, pivoting often in public statements and, Martin says, ultimately getting what he wanted all along. Critics contend that Trump's books were published decades ago or were aimed at making money, not shedding light. "Generally," Martin said, "critics don't read The Art of the Deal. If they did, they would understand."
