Trump Deletes AI Image of Himself as Jesus After Backlash


(MENAFN) US President Donald Trump has removed a controversial social media post that featured an AI-generated image portraying him as Jesus Christ, following criticism from some conservative religious figures.

The post, shared on his Truth Social platform, appeared during a period of heightened political tension linked to disputes over US foreign policy and criticism involving the Catholic Church.

The image, styled like a dramatic painting, showed Trump wearing a white robe and red sash while appearing to heal a hospital patient, with fighter jets in the background and angel-like figures above.

It is not clear why the post was taken down, and the White House has not provided an explanation.

The image sparked backlash from some supporters, including conservative writer Megan Basham, who strongly condemned it and called for its removal.

She criticized the post in remarks shared on social media, describing it as deeply offensive and calling for an apology.

The incident adds to ongoing controversy surrounding Trump’s recent online activity and public disputes with religious and political figures.
