Trump Depicted as Jesus
In this episode, we break down the explosive 48 hours that followed. We explore the massive internet backlash that managed to unite both sides of the aisle, including fierce condemnation from prominent conservative and evangelical voices who called the post "gross blasphemy." We also dive into the geopolitical timing of the post, which arrived just hours after Trump launched a scathing social media tirade against Pope Leo XIV regarding U.S. foreign policy.
