Say what you want about the man, President Donald Trump sure knows how to control the news cycle…..
Is Donald Trump simply lampooning the Pope, saying “I could do a better job on world peace than you could?” Or is he proclaiming himself as some kind of messianic figure – even Jesus Christ? Or – something else?

Sunday night at 9:49, Truth Social – the online forum founded by Donald Trump, and still his preferred media outlet, shared the following image:
A few minutes earlier, at 9:03 PM, he had published the statement below, heavily critical of Pope Leo due to the pontiff’s anti-war statements.
Taken together, and especially the AI image appearing to liken Trump to Christ, the Truth Social posts are deeply troubling to Christians who have supported Trump for his pro-life stance and Supreme Court selections and his opposition to LGBTQ advocacy.

Worst. President. EVER.
POS
As a Catholic, I understand what he’s doing, but I don’t have to like the method.
Before this gets over, everyone involved in this war will be guilty of war crimes and will be no hero in this operation. The amount of damage being done should horrify everyone.
It should surprise no-one that Trump is now likening himself to Jesus. This trajectory has been building for a long time. Seeing this today gave me a good laugh, but it’s tragic, of course. And dangerous.
If you simply take out who made the post, but look it at is a post of someone believing they were Christ, you would say it was from a deeply delusional person desperately in need of help.
Although I agree with a lot of what the Trump II administration is doing, this post of his is completely inappropriate. He needs to apologize for it; but since he won’t, it’s further evidence of a narcissistic personality disorder.
How soon everyone forgets. We saw this same thing with Obama. Newsweek even put him on their cover page. Don’t fall for the rage bait.
Please link to the tweet from Obama where he portrays himself as Christ. That would be a must-see.
Still my President doing what I voted for. Jesus had a beard and long hair.
I think Don Trump was sent here by Jesus to save America.
What did you vote for, Steve? “No more regime change wars”? That DOGE refund check? The tariff refund check? The Fort Knox audit? Did any of those happen? Manufacturing jobs? (We’ve lost over 75,000 net in the last year.) More mRNA vaccines? (Announced on day one of his new term.) More domestic surveillance? (Ditto, via his Stargate project.) Release of the Epstein files? (That’s a “Democrat hoax” now.) Finishing the wall? Welcoming a former Al Qaeda commander and jihadist to the White House? Pardoning one of the world’s worst drug traffickers but not Edward Snowden?
But hey, at least we got men out of women’s sports. Tired of winning yet?
No, not even tired of winning yet. Glad to see non- domicile commercial drivers being taken off of our roads. Chameleon carriers being investigated and put out of business. Oppressive regulations being rolled back out of the way of my pursuit of happiness. Bogus trucking schools being shut down. State DMV offices and officers that issue CDL licenses to people with no given name being corrected. Just a few of the wins I am enjoying.
All immigration related. What about everything else you were promised? (The list I gave above is only partial.)
