Trump Predicts His Approval Ratings Will Be Resurrected In Three Days

WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Trump told reporters on Monday that he wasn't concerned about his recent dip in popularity or the controversy that resulted from his posting of a social media image depicting himself as Christ, boldly predicting that his approval ratings would be resurrected in three days.

Trump's popularity had slipped as of late, following a tweet of himself as a Christ-like figure and the ongoing war in Iran. Even his most ardent supporters, who had continued to champion him through various scandals, were put off by what they called a sacrilegious depiction of himself in place of Jesus. But not to worry, said Trump, as his approval would soon rise again to newness of life.

"Verily, verily, I say unto you — my poll numbers will go up," Trump said. "You want me to delete my tweet, but you do not understand — I must suffer many things, especially a drop in my polling numbers, for the sake of doing whatever I want. But do not fear, for after three days, my approval will be higher than ever. Everyone says so."

He added, "I could dress as Jesus while standing in the middle of Fifth Avenue and not lose any voters. It's incredible, okay?"

Trump's closest advisers reportedly told the president he was deeply wrong about this and needed to repent. Some even questioned among themselves: "This is a hard saying. Who can understand it?"

According to sources, Trump said, "Does this offend you? What then, when you see my approval rating ascending higher than ever before?"

At publishing time, President Trump had predicted that someone in his cabinet would betray him.

Here’s the original post created by @NickAdamsinUSA

1) Proper context: Trump didn’t make it.

2) Proper interpretation: the meme creator said it means Trump is healing a Christian nation.

3) Would there be less outrage if Trump was presented as a Hindu Brahmin or Buddhist… pic.twitter.com/68ce0fg35D— Pastor Steve Cioccolanti (@PastorSteve) April 13, 2026

Quit posting that BS. It ain’t helping, nor is it an accurate description of what occurred.
