As many in the United States were looking forward to the total solar eclipse, the people running the House Judiciary Committee’s X account had a different eclipse in mind.

On Monday, the committee posted an image from a video shared by former President Donald Trump that featured his head, in place of the moon, covering the sun.

The caption of video declared Trump’s possible victory in the 2024 election will be “the most important moment in human history.”

Several users on X pointed out the imagery of Trump blocking the out the sun may not convey the message they thought it did:

and trump spread darkness over the land https://t.co/Hc18OUAG9B

— Lauren Windsor (@lawindsor) April 8, 2024

So…he blots out the sun and leaves the land in darkness? That sounds about right. Nice cult ya got there, fellas. https://t.co/w1FYE6EYMg

— Rex Huppke (@RexHuppke) April 8, 2024

Big fucking head plunging the world into darkness. Seems right. https://t.co/qzCsmnEEky

— Michael Ian Black (@michaelianblack) April 8, 2024

Yes. He is indeed casting a long and dark shadow on the country. https://t.co/9C141HB2YU

— Heath Mayo (@HeathMayo) April 8, 2024

Other conservative and liberal commentators simply found the post weird:

This isn't helping y'all beat the cult allegations. https://t.co/g8sUESjYd7

— Brad Polumbo 🇺🇸⚽️🏳️‍🌈 (@brad_polumbo) April 9, 2024

People get upset when you say, "It's a cult." https://t.co/BJ66XSMvAI

.@HouseGOP: We may not know how to pass laws, but we do know how to pay staffers to tweet stupid shit! https://t.co/vEoYNU47Kh

Not sure they thought through the imagery here. https://t.co/WAHpm7zscV

Try to act like actual people for once. https://t.co/EVO3uKIsz5
