At this point Trump is pretty much the Anti-Christ.
Let’s just stop speculating about what he was thinking. At this point it’s entirely random.
What was even his intention?

It is not. There’s a reason he didn’t post an image with himself as a demon instead. He thinks he’s Jesus. Why would I discard that as “random”?

In the last little bit, I’ve noticed he’s had several weird ‘off script’ bits he’s been doing.
Commentators have picked up on it and have discussed them at length to highlight how cooked his brain is.- Trump Reveals Rep. Neal Dunn’s Terminal Diagnosis – Then Claims He Helped Reverse It
- Trump wildly sidetracks White House event to reveal he paid for angel mother to get her eyes fixed
I think it’s part of an intentional effort to seed a mythos around him. Some true information, some false information. Overrepresent some of the fantastical stuff, especially through media channels to your low-information fans. Get a couple idiot commentators to start parroting a Jesus narrative for him. Pick a fight with the pope, maybe. See if you can dear-leader yourself into becoming the god king while your oligarch buddies fuck with the media and informational landscape.
Seems to be tracking.

The Sparknotes:
- Pope made speech saying that war was bad and we should move to diplomacy and dialogue.
- Trump believed it was about him and started scream tweeting at him calling him a “weak on crime”.
- Pope said “I’m not afraid of Trump.”
- Trump posted an AI pic of him as Jesus healing someone in a hospital bed flanked by troops and an American flag and all the accoutrements.
- This was picked up by the media, Evangelicals were horrified and called it Blasphemous, showing they don’t actually see Trump as Jesus. Everyone else memed on him.
- Trump took it down, saying “he didn’t know anything about it” and “it was meant to show him as a Doctor”.
- Despite him taking it down, most of the front pages of the Newspapers today here at least.

Evangelicals were horrified
Yeah I don’t believe this for a moment.

This. This is what you missed.
This is an AI-generated image of Trump portraying himself as Jesus Christ.

I didn’t erase it from the screencap. Oops.
Monument@piefed.world 3 days ago
At this rate, I just assumed he posted it with the captions. (I mean, I would probably figure out why, but my first impulse was a ‘sure, why not?’ kind of acceptance.)
Which is the goal of hypernormalization, right?

Why does the patient in this version of the image look like Jeffrey Epstein?
