Franklin Graham: Trump would not knowingly post an inappropriate image of himself as Jesus. USA! USA! USA!

https://www.rawstory.com/franklin-graham-trump-jesus/

"I do not believe President Trump would knowingly depict himself as Jesus Christ—that would certainly be inappropriate," Graham wrote on Thursday. "I'm thankful the President has made it very clear that this was not at all what he thought the AI-generated image was representing—he thought it was a doctor helping someone, and when he learned of the concerns, he immediately removed the post."

"There were no spiritual references—no halo, there were no crosses, no angels. It was a flag, soldiers, a nurse, fighter planes, eagles, the Statue of Liberty, and I think this is a lot to do about nothing," he added. "There is so much ill-intended speculation. I think his enemies are always foaming at the mouth at any possible opportunity to make him look bad."

is also not mentally fit to be President of the United States of America. By your own standards.

... Prezzidint Psychopants doesn't need anyone's help "to make him look bad". And you don't need anyone's help to look like the larval stage of a repulsive pestilence.

I mean, everyone knows that doctors wear robes and red sashes. Really, what's a surgical smock other than a robe? Sure, it's not made of linen, but that's just being picky. And the sash? Real doctors wear sashes! It's the badge of office! Don't believe the liberal atheist communist socialist biased rigged evil America-hating media! Now, as for the healing: laying on hands is an absolutely legitimate medical practice. Literally billions of people have been healed this way. And only the most powerful doctors can summon the Glowing Ball of Healing. Have you ever seen the Marvel series Iron Fist? Kind of like that, except it's for healing, and Marvel stole the concept from the medical world, and the idea of "summoning your chi" is Chinese theft from the white male practice of performing miracles after you accept Jesus into your heart. Because you can't be a real doctor without Jesus. And you know how you know it's not Jesus? Because Jesus's hand is like the Infinity Gauntlet. He just snaps his fingers and the disease turns to ash. Marvel stole that one from Jesus, too.

In the name of the Lord, I abjure and command you to do your research, and learn how medicine actually works.

I wonder what Graham’s response would have been if Obama posted a similar picture.

Just curious.
