Dylan Mulvaney is speaking out after President Donald Trump targeted her during his White House Correspondents’ Association dinner speech on Friday.

“Maybe being publicly mocked and criticized by this administration is actually, like, the greatest compliment of all,” said Mulvaney, a trans TikTok influencer whose 2023 Bud Light partnership sparked a right-wing boycott against the beer, in a clip shared on Sunday.

“Because it puts me in the company of some of the most brilliant, empathetic people in our world today.”

Trump name-dropped Mulvaney in a transphobic joke involving Kaitlan Collins as he complained that the CNN star should “smile” more.

“I thought Kaitlan had really made it big with a major new sponsorship but then I informed her that it wasn’t her on the Bud Light can, it was Dylan Mulvaney,” remarked Trump, who suggested the TikToker cost Bud Light’s parent company “$35 billion in market cap” (Note: That figure is far off from some estimates.)

By Sunday, in the midst of a bonkers artificial-intelligence-filled posting spree on social media, the president shared an edited image featuring Collins’ head on Mulvaney’s body.

Mulvaney later took to TikTok where she had “a little something” to say about Trump, but not before first congratulating Collins on winning a WHCA award.

“I would like to ... tell her that I’m incredibly honored to be compared to her in any way, and I hope that she keeps doing all the great work,” she said.

The TikToker proceeded to address conservatives making her a “topic of conversation all these years later.”

“It seems to me that I might be like ‘the one that got away’ for these men, like I am permanently burned into their retinas, I am microchipped into their minds,” she said.

Elsewhere in the clip, she wondered aloud why the administration finds it “so important” that she doesn’t find “success.”

“Oh, my God, freedom,” she answered.

“They don’t want me to be able to share that because it would mean young people realizing that if someone like me can be themselves and find success and freedom, then they can find success and freedom for themselves, too,” she continued.

Mulvaney used the remainder of the clip to call on her followers to support trans and nonbinary people.

“And lastly, to the president, thank you for reminding me that I am more powerful than I even knew,” she added.
