Best Memes as Trump Claims He Thought AI Jesus Picture was Actually Him as a Doctor

US president Donald Trump sparked major backlash after sharing an AI-generated image depicting him as Jesus Christ – his explanation? He thought it was depicting him as a doctor.

Despite claiming to be religious, Trump managed to offend millions of faithful people after sharing the controversial image on Truth Social, which showed him dressed in a white gown with red cloth around his shoulders, with his palm pressed to the forehead of a sick man.

The incident sparked major backlash and Trump was questioned by reporters over whether he posted the image himself.

“I did post it, and I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do with the Red Cross as a Red Cross worker there, which we support. Only the fake news could come up with that one,” Trump claimed.

It’s fair to say not many people bought his explanation. Trump has since deleted the post.

Reporter: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ?

Trump: It wasn't a depiction. I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor. And had to do with red cross as a red cross worker, which we support and only the fake news could come up with that one. pic.twitter.com/7Y1u86GjkP
