President Donald Trump shared an AI-generated image depicting himself as a Jesus-like figure on Truth Social, sparking widespread criticism, including from religious conservatives who typically support him. The post was deleted the following day.
President Donald Trump deleted an AI-generated image of himself depicted as Jesus Christ after backlash from his Catholic supporters and even some MAGA loyalists. He later claimed he believed the image portrayed him as a Red Cross doctor, not Jesus.
US President Donald Trump was recently accused of blasphemy after taking to Truth Social and sharing an AI-generated photo of himself as Jesus Christ. The photo also featured falcons, military aircraft, the Statue of Liberty, and the American flag.
The US president has been targeting Pope Leo after he criticised the war in Iran, saying God rejected the prayers of leaders who start wars and have their 'hands full of blood'.
