President Trump Shares ‘Quite Nice’ AI Photo of Him and Jesus After Backlash for Christ-Like Image
Trump shared AI images of himself with Jesus Christ on Truth Social, sparking controversy amid tensions with Pope Leo XIV and his inflammatory Easter message about Iran.
President Donald Trump shared yet another AI-generated photo of himself, this time alongside Jesus Christ — instead of one that implies the president is actually the religious figure incarnate.
In a post shared to Truth Social on Wednesday, April 15, the 79-year-old president shared a screenshot of a photo originally shared on X. The image, which appears to be AI-generated, is of Trump and Jesus Christ touching each other’s foreheads as Jesus wraps his arms around the president in front of an American flag.
“The Radical Left Lunatics might not like this, but I think it is quite nice!!!” the Apprentice alum captioned his post, singing it “President DJT.”
The post comes days after Trump came under fire for sharing another AI-generated photo of himself in white and red robes, typically worn by Jesus in historical depictions of the religious leader, and touching the forehead of a sick man.
Trump, who deleted the post after swift backlash, was later asked about why he posted it and explained what it meant.
“I did post it. I thought it was me as a doctor,” Trump said, adding that he thought the picture had to do with the Red Cross, “which we support.”
“Only the fake news could come up with that one,” Trump added. “I just heard about it, and I said, ‘How do they come up with that?’ It’s supposed to be me as a doctor making people better. And I do make people better. I make people a lot better.”
The religious-themed images of Trump come amid his feud with Pope Leo XIV over the war with Iran.
Trump also angered Americans after using profanity in his Easter Sunday morning message to Iran on April 5.
“Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!” he said on Truth Social. “Open the F**kin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP.”
Two days after his Easter message, Trump threatened via Truth Social, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will.”
Though a two-week ceasefire deal was reportedly reached before Trump’s deadline for his demands, the war remains ongoing.
