Right-wing, right-leaning, and conservative Christian commentators denounced a Truth Social post by President Donald Trump that depicts him as a Jesus-like figure, calling it “blasphemous,” “horrific,” and “completely inappropriate” and urging him to delete it. Trump subsequently deleted the post and said it was “supposed to be me as a doctor.”
