I looked at these pictures so you don’t have to. If you think Trump is either God or Jesus or the Second Coming of Jesus, stop reading here.

Megalomaniac Trump was so proud of the image of him as Jesus that he reposted it, then removed it 13 hours later.[1] A trickle of RWNJ supported it: “the country needs healing.”

Not a single religious leader praised the image. It was considered vile by droves of Catholics and the Christian-adjacent (like me). As far as I recall, Jesus wasn’t a megalomaniac.

Then Trump swelled with pride[2] and posted another piece of AI Slop, touching heads with Jesus. These images are so low-res and hard to find it’s as if someone were scouring them from the Internet.

Trump has form in Jesus boasting going back to his between-term trial. In October 2023, Trump shared a meme of himself sitting beside Jesus Christ, on the first day of his civil fraud trial.

Trump can’t and shouldn’t be blamed for all AI Slop Fan Art, just the “art” he proudly reposts. And we know he is reposting them himself (no blaming a staffer this time) because he says he vets every post under his name. Would the president lie to us?

Let’s just check how Trump is going with the seven heavenly virtues (you be the judge…) prudence, justice, temperance, courage, faith, hope and charity.

[1] How proud is that?

[2] Pride is one of the seven deadly sins, since we are in bible territory.
