US President Donald Trump on Sunday, April 12 harshly criticized Pope Leo XIV over the US-born pontiff’s remarks on Washington’s war in Iran before posting an AI-generated image portraying himself as Jesus performing a miracle reminiscent of biblical imagery.

It is indeed indefensible, no matter how much we can defend the President's policies against the demonic Left. That certain irreligious on FR defend it is pitiful.

If true one or both of those 2 needs to update their resumes.

I hope you’re right, because the November elections are (obviously) important. And it’s gonna be close.
But I fear this post of Trump’s is going to backfire, and perhaps spectacularly. Most Christians will see this post as being in very poor taste, even blasphemous.
It moves the ball in the wrong direction. Maybe not by much, but definitely in the wrong direction.
I’m the first to go after TDStards, but you have to admit, sometimes Trump just ‘tards himself. This is one of them.
I asked Grok whether they are Christian, thinking they might not have realized how offensive this would be. They both claim to be Christian, and Scavino is Catholic.
Being edgy is one thing, but when the left is already accusing Trump supporters of being in a cult it is too much to trust the society - especially with the powers of darkness lined up against us - to process the nuances of sarcasm or how outrageous it is for Leo to think he should rule the United States.
Maybe. But as President Trump has said himself, he is a “very stable genius”. So he must believe that posting such an image is playful and perhaps one of the keys to a red wave in November!
Jeez.
I doubt he even knew about it when it was posted and had it removed as soon as he got home. This was all going on while he was flying, landing, and headed back to the White House.
Even if he did post this - I wouldn’t take it as mocking God, more like mocking those with TDS. He’s the master troll and loves to cause them anguish.
This is in poor taste, and even more so was the dropping of the “F bomb” on a Sunday. It is not presidential, to say the least.
When my oldest was 17, he was making plans for a halloween party and despite the fact we attend mass every Sunday, that he had been baptized, taken first communion, and been confirmed - he said he was going to dress as Jesus.
My wife was horrified. I handled the discussion a little more calmly - he was nearly an adult. His decisions - and the repercussions of them - were soon going to be his own. We raised him to believe in God, but as an adult - even though he *was* confirmed - his faith would also be his own path.
I just wanted to hear from him *why* he thought it was a good idea... “Just trying to be edgy and funny.” It was a good talk - rather than me just *telling* him he was wrong, he got there himself and decided on a Homer Simpson costume instead.
But - he was 17. And 17 year-olds think they know everything despite often not thinking too much; I remember being that age too.
DJT is not 17 and needs to stop acting like it.
Could be dressed as Obi Wan Kenobi.
I don’t see how Trump gets the time to post crap on Truth Social. Somebody is doing it for him, likely without his approval.

There is a saying: The older I get, the wiser my father becomes.
Very true!
Give me a break
Stupid post. Meanwhile, the left are literally at Each with Christianity.
I marvel at people who think a billionaire creates his own AI stuff.
If Popey would STFU, this wouldn’t have happened. Who the hell does he think he is chiming in on America’s security, as if he’s privy to intelligence info that Trump isn’t? (Many here suffer from the same affliction.)
Nope, never was the plan.
We were duped BUT as long he stands by the fact that killing babies is wrong, we have something
