Trump's Jesus Post Sparks Backlash

Trump's Jesus Post Sparks Backlash

The controversial Truth Social post has widened the rift between the president and the Catholic Church, with critics accusing Trump of taking the Lord's name in vain.

Influential evangelicals have dismissed the outcry as 'much ado about nothing,' but many religious experts see it as a textbook example of Trump's 'cosplay Christianity.' The image was reportedly discussed with housing finance chief Bill Pulte before being shared, suggesting a calculated attempt to appeal to religious voters.

This incident follows a series of unhinged online posts that have led some to question the president's deteriorating mental state.
