Embattled President of the United States of America, Donald Trump has depicted himself in an AI generated image as “Jesus.”
This is even as he attacked Pope Leo, saying: “he likes crime, I guess.”
Responding to Pope Leo who spoke against the war between the US/Israel and Iran, President Trump said: “I don’t think he’s doing a very good job. He likes crime, I guess.”
Trump went on to post an AI generated image, depicting himself in a Christ-like form, appearing to “heal” the sick, on his platform: Truth Social.
The post came amidst an escalating war of words with Pope Leo XIV, whom Trump described as “weak on crime” and “terrible for foreign policy” in a separate, lengthy message.
The exchange follows recent tensions between the two over immigration and the ongoing conflict in Iran, with the Pope urging restraint and peace in public remarks.
In his post, Trump accused the pontiff of aligning with the “Radical Left” and criticised his positions on nuclear policy and US interventions, including Venezuela. He also questioned the circumstances of the Pope’s elevation, claiming it was politically motivated and linked to his own presidency.
