Trump Deletes Christ Post After MAGA Backlash
Donald Trump faced significant backlash from Catholic supporters after posting an AI-generated image on Truth Social that depicted him as Jesus Christ, healing a patient and surrounded by patriotic symbols. Following a strong negative reaction, the post was quietly deleted. Trump later claimed he believed the image showed him as a Red Cross doctor, not Jesus, a statement that came after he had also heavily criticized Pope Leo XIV on the same platform, calling him “weak” and alleging the Pope only gained his position due to his American nationality. The Pope, in turn, responded by reaffirming his commitment to speaking out against war and promoting peace, indirectly referencing the misuse of the Gospel’s message.
