I maintain that it is unambiguously irreverent, and not befitting any politician, in particular a President. Which most viewers see as depicting Christ:
Trump DELETES 'blasphemous' Jesus image after backlash from president's closest allies 4/13/2026, 12:21:55 PM · by thegagline · 261 replies The Daily Mail ^ | 04/13/2026 | Phillip Nieto Donald Trump has deleted a viral post comparing himself to Jesus Christ after it drew accusations of blasphemy from some of his most vocal right-wing supporters. The President's Truth Social account removed an AI generated image showing him draped in white with a red shawl, placing his hands, glowing with a divine light, on a sick patient in a hospital bed as a soldier, a nurse and others look on in adoration. The post was shared Sunday evening and, by the following morning, had sparked outrage among many of Trump's own supporters, who objected to his use of Christ's image..
it would have been better if the picture had never been posted by the President.
Indeed.

Indeed, but the bright light in his had signifies miraculous power.
Fifth, you ought to remember that I have NO REGARD WHATSOEVER for Catholicism, its minions, its dogmas, its traditions, or its practices... Never did I consider the “Pope” to be the “solution”... Eventually, I want to remind Catholics once again...

Bottom line - I erred by addressing #132 to you. I should have removed your name. I thought the sarcasm and rhetoric would have made my intentions clear.
Yes, I was surprised to see it, as it was only addressed to me. And as I was already dealing with mockers then I was in a contentious mood. Sorry for any misunderstanding faithful FREEper!
I don't know about most, but some surely do.
Christ-LIKE image.
Millions of folks have no problem at all with using an 'image' of Christ hanging on a cross, or in various other ways.
I guess we should be grateful that Trump was not seen as Mohammed!
