But as someone with an Irish Catholic background, this series of posts are so offensive. The pig really needs a padded room.

I think they believe he is the second coming. They would drink the kool aid even if they knew it was spiked.

Those angered by it, likely already hated him. I’m getting to the point where I’m nearly numb. Sickened? Disgusted? Absolutely. Just knowing that there’s no line he can’t cross, and still has any support, will never let me look at this country the same way again.

In every way he is the opposite of the Jesus

Love thy neighbor - opposite
Help the poor - opposite
Give unto others like thy self - opposite !!!

It's almost like he's the opposite-christ...

Hmm, isn't there a better word for that... Anti-something ?

Particular conservative evangelicals. They’re often extremely greedy, worship money and wealth over all else, don’t care for their neighbors unless they think, look, and vote the way they do.

I don’t see this as often among Christians from many other countries (other than various African countries where they can be extremely conservative).

Christians throughout the world are a very diverse bunch, ranging many denominations. Many may have some conservative personal beliefs, but for the most part, they favor a social safety net, but don’t support outright fascist policies. Depending on the country’s culture, they may even support LGBT or abortion rights.

We have a weird strain of white nationalism mixed with Christianity, which is particularly toxic. I like how Talarico addresses this.

They have the out to say:

"Oh, that crazy stuff was just trump, the "New Guy" republican will be totally different,"

just like they do after every republican destroys the economy and starts a war in the middle east. They do not learn, and they refuse to accept that the crazy stuff is the republican brand, not just lunatic trump. I would eat my shoe if more than a vanishing minority of trump voters that are claiming that this "is the last straw" actually change their voting patterns because of it.

I dare him. Prove it.

That picture is wrong in so many ways. Horribly sacrilegious, which I don't much care about, but we now know he definitely thinks he's God. Mad as the proverbial Hatter.

This is beyond impeachment--its straight jacket time. Get him outta here!

I'm Esiscopalian, and I'm just as offended as you are. This is truly disgusting.

This is pathetically disgusting.

I’m about as far as you can get from conventionally religious. Even so, I find this offensive.

If I’m Stewart I’m worried. Trump healing looks like MAGA 3rd eye conversion therapy manipulation. Stay strong, Jon! Resist the brainwashing!

Looks an AWFUL lot like him.

Since it looks like he's going to need a distraction from the war he started as a distraction from the Epstein files.

He's going full circle (and also fully into 25th Amendment territory!)

And why are Republicans so terrified of calling him out on this shit?

How dare he illustrate someone praying to him! And a nurse looking like, "There was no more I could do! Now our prayers have been answered!"

He is a very sick man, and a dangerous one.

that made sense. But then why would he have a picture of the Statue of Liberty also in the background? And why are there only three spikes on its head?

People have found an earlier version, posted by some MAGA fan, that had another soldier where the demon/flying liberty is now. So I guess someone went to AI and said "replace the middle soldier with ..." . I wouldn't think they meant it to be something evil, and whatever they said, they thought the result was "cool". Whether it has the right number of spikes may not matter to them, and like AI drawing people with the wrong number of fingers, the number of spikes is not something it can "think" about.

A human artist (or the one instructing AI) might say the Statue of Liberty is a statue (though not in the right geographical location), while the flying version is "the real thing". If someone thinks Trump is a Jesus replacement, then they could easily believe there is an actual "Lady Liberty" supernatural spirit that does flypasts while St. Don has glowing, healing hands.

'Who is a good boy then?'

All in harmony, endlessly, in Trump's father's voice.

While the worms in his brain harmonize a background tune.

The picture sickens me, and I'm not religious.

the 25th says . . . Surely This is Enough? When Do I Get To Do My Job?

This is freakin’ HORRIFYING!!!

Yes. Indeed. Sarcasm.

Whoever did that needs to get a proper job!

He almost killed me.

I am a lymphoma survivor.
I was first diagnosed in 1990; it returned in 2002 and 2019.
When, it returned in 2019, I had to go through five different treatments to find a successful one.
ACA provides me protection against lifetime limits.
ACA is a law Trump wanted to repeal in 2017 and still wants to repeal.
When it returned in 2019, it was near my spinal column.
I will not paint a picture of the suffering that I would have endured if Trump was successful in repealing ACA and there were no more lifetime limits.

Not to mention the thousands of lives lost due in part due to his COVID policies in his first term.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/feb/10/us-coronavirus-response-donald-trump-health-policy

Also, millions this year will lose their insurance in this year alone due to GOP Senate not passing ACA subsidies, which Trump has said he may veto even if it passes.

He’s becoming more and more unhinged.

Forget his name.

For him to repost?

He is so bat-shit 🤪 crazy.

Never mind, his remaining followers would likely be even more shameless and obnoxious.

I’m surprised he hasn’t said, “I like my prophets that aren’t martyred. What a sucker and loser!”

are white. Shocking.
He continues down the slippery slope to insanity.

That worked fine with his cult of stupid racists. Why not this one too? tRUMP healing an old white guy? Boomer?

Are the first ones to worship him when he actually shows up.

He's to fucking DUMB and NON RELIGIOUS to think of doing this.

MAGA believers are the most destructive political force of my lifetime. They want Trump to destroy the government and the financial health of the country, wrongly believing that they can remake the US into the racist, misogynistic, homophobic country they want to promote the white man as head of all decisions.

Trump is messing with the liberals. They just don't get a joke.

Did anyone not expect this? Here's a guy who thinks he is handsome. So many Catholics voted for him, including the hierarchy. Going to Mass was like going to a republican rally.

and I'm not sure what "Boomer" upthread has to do with it.

with this bait.

The president’s offensive against the pope, followed by the image presenting himself as some kind of American Jesus, represented quite the one-two punch.

I get that many will find Trump’s offensive against the pope as predictable — this is just what he does — but compare how he lashed out at Pope Francis in 2016 to how he targeted Pope Leo XIV yesterday.

And then add in the mind-numbing American Jesus image.

Just ask him.

Link to tweet

trump's followers are pissed and trump was forced to take down his post

Link to tweet

But it is still laughing. Now I don't even have an ass.

None whatsoever.

Who needs health care when Dr. Jesus is in charge.

They say he is just carrying out the commands of Christ to heal..in this case he is healing the nation..he is portraying himself as a doctor or it's someone else that posted it. Most MAGAs will spin this in his favor..
Remember that golden statue of him that people knelt before ? He IS their God.

They worship him and nothing will change them.

.Dont waste time trying. Concentrate on those that either stayed home or say they are independents..

No one is surprised that trump took down the image depicting him as a Jesus Christ-like figure

After facing a wave of backlash from critics and supporters alike, President Donald Trump appeared to have deleted a social media post that featured an image depicting him as a Jesus Christ-like figure — prompting ridicule from onlookers.
