The fallout from Donald Trump’s now-deleted “Jesus” post is only getting worse — and this time, even his own supporters are openly questioning whether he’s fit for office.
After facing intense backlash for sharing an AI-generated image depicting himself as a Christ-like figure healing a man, Trump attempted to explain it away Monday with a claim that left critics stunned.
“It wasn’t a depiction,” Trump insisted, arguing the image actually showed him “as a doctor” tied to the Red Cross.
That explanation did not land.
The original post — which featured Trump glowing with divine light as he appeared to heal a bedridden figure resembling Jeffrey Epstein— had already sparked outrage across MAGA circles, with many calling it “blasphemous” and demanding it be taken down.
But Trump’s attempt to walk it back only made things worse.
Online reaction was swift — and merciless.
Writers and commentators piled on, mocking the explanation as incoherent and absurd. Some pointed out the obvious: doctors don’t heal patients by laying glowing hands on them like a religious figure.
Others went further.
Several critics — including voices from the right — openly floated the idea of invoking the 25th Amendment, which allows for the removal of a president deemed unfit to serve.
“Confusing Jesus Christ with the Red Cross is even more justification to invoke the 25th Amendment,” one commentator wrote, echoing a growing sentiment that Trump’s explanation raised more concerns than it resolved.
The ridicule only snowballed from there.
Journalists, commentators, and everyday users alike tore into the claim, joking about “doctors” with glowing hands and questioning whether Trump understands even the basics of what he was describing.
The backlash marks a striking moment: what began as outrage over a controversial post has now evolved into something more serious — a broader questioning of Trump’s judgment.
And unlike previous controversies, this one isn’t being driven solely by political opponents.
It’s coming from inside his own base. His own supporters are asking a question that once seemed unthinkable: what happens if this isn’t just another misstep — but something more?
