Trump Posts AI-Generated Image of Himself as Pope

Retweeted by the official White House account.
- I wonder what all of his Protestant Evangelical backers think of this.
  My eschatology is a bit rusty, but I think this is the type of thing that they thought the Antichrist would do. But maybe that's why the evangelicals back him, thinking the rapture is just around the corner....
  (Or maybe, the "rapture" is happening right now, except instead of the chosen, worthy people being disappeared to Heaven, they're all being disappeared to El Salvador. The joke's on all those evangelicals, I guess. Ha.)
  Edited to add: Doesn't "El Salvador" literally translate to "The Savior"? Kidnapping the innocent and whisking them to "The Savior", never to be seen again, definitely tracks.
  
  "Evangelical", when I was a kid, meant "racist who is mega devoted to the Bible and goes to church twice a week, and maybe doesn't apply enough critical thinking to what the preacher says." They'd know Bible quotes, ask themselves what Jesus would do, and although I completely disagreed with them and fled the state I lived in ASAP, they were coming from a sincere place.
  Evangelical", today, is purely a statement of political alignment with MAGA. Most don't even go to church. They're literally willing to worship a golden idol.
- Dude is literally the antichrist
  
  Do we talk about ridding ourselves of the antichrist or would that be “uncivil” and “inciting violence?”
  
  Arguably the Antipope (or would be, if he decides to keep pushing this '''joke''' like he has with the conquering Canada crap...)
- This is so insane

This is a flex. It means “watch me insult the largest Christian organization on earth with literally no consequences. My base’s support won’t budge and the rest of you cowards will continue to take it.” Has nothing to do with the pope or being the pope- it’s just another demoralization tactic.

Do it. Become pope.
US Constitution, Article I, Section 9, Clause 8:
No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
No more presidency for you, dumbass.
(but then again, the constitution doesn't seem to matter any more so what do I know 🤷‍♂️)
- Trump has been in flagrant violation of the 'emoluments' part of that section for the entirety of his presidency — both terms.
  Guess what consequences he faced for that. Go on, guess!
- without the Consent of Congress
  They'd just give their consent, and we'd still be in "not quite a constitutional crisis" we've been in since he took office.
- without the Consent of the Congress
  I don't see the problem, Congress wil consent to anything, let him do anything; he could grab them right by the legislativussy
  
  legislativussy
  Congrussy 💀

This guy is so crass and so gormless he doesn't hesitate for one second to spit in the face of 1.5bn Catholics in the world.
Having said that, I wouldn't mind a picture of Trump as a dead Pope...
- Catholics (in America at least) would happily let him spit in their faces, as long as he continues to make abortions harder to get. Never mind the fact that the Church is equally against the death penalty, or treating migrants like cattle....
  
  American catholics are very different to european catholics. Not that european catholics are good, but compared to the US version they are outright progressive.

Hey Texas, a political meme is using AI to push an agenda. You going to do something about it?
- They literally live by the phrase, "come and take it." No, they won't do shit.

He's going to pull a Henry VIII and make a state sanctioned version of Christianity called the Church of America, isn't he.
- You know, that would make a lot of sense with his “we need to forget about the separation of church and state” comments.
  
  Maybe they could stop bothering with the “charter schools aren’t public but can get public money to teach religion” fig leaf.
  We’ll just have public schools which have a state sponsored religion, which acknowledges our great hero - an instrument of god himself.
  What number of felonies would it have taken to call Obama a “son of lawlessness?”
- Would love to see this honestly. You'll see at least a couple of million come over instantly.

The guy bankrupts everything he touches. Go ahead, take down the church.

ONLY the TRUE Chosen One Of God would DO something like THAT! Now I'm even MORE CONVINCED Convicted Fraudster and Rapist and Thrice Married Billionaire Donald John Trump is GODS SON!
- I’m standing with the Chosen one
  Ain’t no stopping what the Lord’s begun

lol what a loser

- Elon wishes to be Emperor of Mankind.
  His heresy must fail.

For the love of all that is actually holy, I hope they excommunicate his ass.
- He’s not Catholic. JD Vance supposedly is.
  Trump claims to be a non denominational Christian.
  WHAM 1180 AM radio host Bob Lonsberry asked the Republican front-runner if he had a favorite verse or story from the Bible that’s impacted his thinking or character.
  “Well, I think many. I mean, you know, when we get into the Bible, I think many. So many,” he responded. “And some people—look, an eye for an eye, you can almost say that. That’s not a particularly nice thing. But you know, if you look at what’s happening to our country, I mean, when you see what’s going on with our country, how people are taking advantage of us, and how they scoff at us and laugh at us.”
  Now, I’m not a Christian anymore but I think it’s reasonable to say that is not an expected response to “what’s your favorite Bible verse or character.” Hell, as an atheist/discordian I can barely stop myself from infodumping my favorites on here. (Judah and Tamar, I also absolutely love Jesus and the Canaanite woman)
  “Christian” is more of a cultural/community marker for these people, and a vague “I hope I see grandma again” than it is anything resembling “faith.”

This guy can’t be serious.

Ok I ate the onion on this one.

@androsrex
As a catholic I'm offended, I imagine the red hat crowd adores this... They think he's sooo clever.... he surely didn't think of this on his own,,, he;s really not that clever
- As a former Presbyterian and current Deist for lack of a better description, I'm offended by this picture.

The excuse that he posts shitty obnoxious crap “just to piss off the libs” doesn’t fly, because in the end he’s still posting shitty obnoxious crap.

I mean, who else are you going to get to run the largest pedophile ring in the world?
- He’s certainly got the network.
  “She confided in me about her casual ‘friendship’ with Donald. Mr Trump definitely seemed to have a thing for her and she told me how he kept going on about how he liked her ‘pert nipples’,” she testified.
  She then described in graphic detail how Mr Trump allegedly caused pain to the victim’s nipples – and claimed she saw the resulting injury firsthand.
  In further Left Behind Antichrist parallels, quite a few of the business close to Carpathia get knocked off as he consolidates power. The kind of people who might know where bodies are buried, or what really happened on the night in Epstein’s cell.
  
  Where's Chaim when you need him?

Trump wants a job where one of the rules is no having sex? I don't buy it for a second. Also, imagine the shock wave traveling around the world as every conservative head in America exploded at once if Obama had posted something like this.
- It’s like a Bethesda game. Maybe he’ll try to get appointed Dalai Lama and Kwisatz Haderach next. He’s probably got a side path where he’s trying to head the Illuminati (repeatedly discovering it doesn’t exist) and like the Priory of Sion or something.
  Maybe we’re living in Thomas Pynchon’s DMT death dream.

Can someone please link to the image? For some dumb reason, the article writer decided to use a completely different (and real) picture of Trump as the article image, instead of, you know, the image the article is actually about.

Most would be fine with this I believe. When you see orange smoke the Don Pope will arrive. Everyone is saying it.
- While he’s unqualified for the position as much as he is for his current one, I think the more likely outcome is pressuring for a pawn.

Someone needs to start making even more embarrassing images for this dummy to post. If it exists he may post it
