In a sign of how disorganized the White House is, they can’t even settle on a single lie to deny Donald Trump‘s god complex. On Sunday, the president posted artificial intelligence-generated fan art depicting himself as Jesus Christ healing a sick man while being worshiped by white Americans in modern clothing. When this drew criticism, even from some of his biggest sycophants in the punditry, Trump deleted the post. Then the conflicting excuses began.
“I think the president was posting a joke,” JD Vance argued on Fox News. The vice president, who is promoting a new book titled “Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith,” added that Trump “likes to mix it up on social media.”
