American culture has never reached such heights as it has today. Truly, we are in a golden age.
The Trump administration has united with GameStop on X to celebrate the official end of the console wars. After Microsoft announced that Halo would be ported to the Sony PlayStation, the greatest store in America, GameStop, issued the decree that hostilities were over.

It should be noted that Nintendo has yet to sign any agreement, and likely won't.
Regardless, the White House weighed in on this momentous occasion by creating a meme of Trump in the Master Chief's armor, holding an energy sword, and saluting the American flag.

Naturally, this response from the White House had gamers and Trump fans everywhere celebrating.
Halo is arguably the most popular game franchise of all time, at least in the Western world, with characters like Master Chief John 117 and Cortana being some of the most recognizable characters, not just in video game history, but in the literary world as well. The story of the Master Chief is one many Millennials, Gen Z, and even some Gen X know backward and forwards.
Halo being ported to a console outside of the Xbox is a huge occasion that signals a massive change in the video game space, as Microsoft is no longer making its games exclusive to Microsoft products.
But the fun didn't stop there.
GameStop actually responded to the White House on X with its own meme. They put Trump into the Chief's armor, and as an added bonus, put JD Vance's meme form as Cortana behind him.

I don't know how this gets topped.
We've reached greater heights than I could have possibly dreamed with this meme, and it coming from a corporate entity that has become something of a beloved meme unto itself is like meme-ception at this point.
If I were to look at this more analytically, it feels like we're finally having fun as a society again. This harkens back to when we used to not let our political affiliations dictate every single thing we said or did. GameStop releasing this meme after the White House released its own kind of reminds me of the Johnny Carson days, when we could all laugh together.
If this is the future we can look forward to, then I'm all for it.
Judging by the response to both memes, it seems a lot of people are ready for that kind of future as well. The left had people afraid to interact, especially corporations, with anyone or anything associated with Republicans, especially with Trump. Now, it seems a lot of that is lifting. Just judging by how many corporations came through to help fund Trump's ballroom, despite threats by Hakeem Jeffries of retribution for such help, shows that a tide is turning.

Let's hope this trend continues.
It'd be better for all of Western society if it did.
