"'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.'"
As Holly says, it's hard to write satire these days when "reality" itself, as offered to us by the links of Graham, is ludicrous satire of, well, reality and truth.

Holly Berkley Fletcher links to and provides an excerpt from a satirical piece she has written saying that Franklin Graham blames Jesus for Trump's missteps with Iran and the economy. Then she notes that right after she published this, Franklin Graham said,
'I do not believe President Trump would knowingly depict himself as Jesus Christ—that would certainly be inappropriate.'"

"The GOP needs a bogeyman in the midterms. The border crisis is over, DEI has been purged, and the panic over transgender bathrooms is getting old. What can House Republicans run against?
Many are turning to a familiar answer: Muslims."

"'that he’s a politically dangerous existentially threatening figure in America and the global scene. He is unbound. This is a reckless force moving through America with enormous global complications.'"

"Larry Jacobs, director of the Center for the Study of Politics and Governance at the University of Minnesota, said: 'Donald Trump is a wounded political animal. There’s no fading away for this guy. The more damaged he gets, the more reckless he gets and he is someone who is so consumed with a delusion of his grandeur'" (continued in /15)

An email sent by Sinan Kanatsiz, an obscure but well-connected figure in Trump’s political orbit, offers its recipients a 'one-on-one meeting and private photo with President Donald Trump” in exchange for a “contribution of $500,000 to TPUSA PAC.'”

"It is an effort championed by Erika Kirk, the widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, to secure victories for MAGA candidates in the 2026 and 2028 elections by increasing Republican support in Arizona, New Mexico, and Nevada.
The event is free for people who would like to listen to Trump’s speech from the pews at Dream City Church. But a more interactive experience is available — for a price."

"But the kind of grooming that you've seen among white conservative Christians has been that they've pushed the bar further and further toward Donald Trump being appointed by God, anointed by God. by God to make Christ his king, to make sure that the world knows that Christ is king. He's doing God's work."

"Boy, you know, we are in some weird space. Indeed. I mean, there's a there's a concept, you know, it's something else that Donald Trump is quite familiar with since he was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein called grooming. And the right likes to accuse gay people of grooming everybody there around their grooming."

"But If you were sharp and young and mentally agile, you might be able to work your way out of it.
Trump is not the Trump he was even two years ago, much less the Trump he was in 2016."

John North says:
"I'm very upset about that. I mean, how egotistical can you possibly be? I'm ashamed that he would actually do that. The man I voted for and trust."
Rick Wilson concludes:
"When even Iran can troll you on the Pope and the Jesus meme, you seem like you've stepped in a religious minefield that is not going to get any better."

"And only the fake news could come up with that one. So I just heard about it. And I said, how do they come up with that? It's supposed to be me as a doctor making people better. And I do make people better. I make people better. That's a disgrace."
The screen moves to journalist Chris Jansing talking to Trump voter John North about Trump comparing himself to Jesus then pretending he was depicting himself as a doctor.

Rick Wilson tells Wajahat Ali: "Let's bring up Jesus."
Then the screen shows a reporter asking Trump,
"Mr. President, did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ?"
Trump replies:
"Well, it wasn't a picture. It was me. I did post it. And I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do with the Red Cross as a Red Cross worker there, which we support."

"Three words to inspire all good people to fight against Trump — because if a mild-mannered man of God such as Leo isn’t afraid, no one should be."

“'I’m not afraid.'
With these three words Sunday morning, Pope Leo XIV offered as powerful a rebuke of President Trump and everything he has wrought on the world as anyone ever has.
Three words that mocked Trump for being the bully that he is.
Three words that undercut Trump’s self-hyped aura of invincibility."

"The president's blasphemy exposes the truth about the Christian right. …
Most evangelical influencers weren’t really angry so much as they were embarrassed that Trump said the quiet part out loud: He has supplanted Jesus Christ as their lord and savior. ...
the Christian right is really not about worshipping God — it’s about worshipping power."

"The Trumpists fear Pope Leo not simply because he’s defending the views, and speaking to the communicants, of his church. They fear him because he’s defending the principles, and speaking to the citizens, of his country. Of our country."

"The claim that we have no choice but to follow 'the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time,' indeed that we should exult in doing so, is fundamentally at odds with a Judeo-Christian world view. ...
They’re attacking Pope Leo not simply because he’s the pope but because he’s the first American pope. He’s a threat to their ambition to change the meaning of America."

"That Trumpist view—that power is to be worshiped, that might makes right—can be dressed up in religious garb, whether through the unctuous sophistry of JD Vance or the grotesque weaponization of faith by Pete Hegseth. But the costume clearly doesn’t fit."

"This morning, the Trump Administration is ramping up its attack on the Catholic Church. The Miami Herald has confirmed that the Trump administration canceled an $11 million contract with Catholic Charities in Miami that funded housing and care for unaccompanied migrant children, ending a decades-long partnership with the Catholic Church."

"Fully 47 percent strongly dislike it, and another 12 percent somewhat dislike it. At this point, even Jesus would have a hard time resurrecting Trump’s public approval."

Tom Schaller looks at the polls — all of them, across the board — and concludes that "Americans are sick and tired of Trump."
Trump is "the least-liked American president ever." And:
"As for the Jesus imagery he posted on Truth Social and then deleted? Well, the new CBS/YouGov poll asked Americans about that, too."

"Trump’s personal twist—what Pope Leo XIV aptly called the 'delusion of omnipotence'—helps explain not just the Iran war but everything else that happened this weekend, and everything likely to happen between now and the November midterms."

"Writing for the New York Times, Lydia Polgreen invoked D.W. Brogan’s 1952 Harper’s essay on America’s 'illusion of omnipotence.' It’s the durable national belief that any problem will yield to sufficient will and power."

Jay Kuo looks at Trump's blockade of the blockade, his attack on the pope, and his AI meme equating himself with Jesus and says:
"Taken individually, each episode reads like a stumble. Taken together, they form a pattern: a president who believes he can bend reality to his will."

"And the reason for this is clear: 'The people around him cannot stop the grift train—it’s griftapalooza,' as Rick explained. With all the wealth the Trump inner circle has been making off his second term, why would they want to remove the golden goose—or in Trump’s case, the 'Orange goose.'”

"As Rick [Wilson] noted, Trump 'is obviously not well. The world knows it. And everybody knows it.' Rick then added this poignant line, 'Clearly no one loves this man enough to say, Don, it’s time. You need help, professional help. We’re going to get it for you.'”

"The Iran blockade hasn’t noticeably shifted public opinion. Nor has the early effort this week to shift the topic to tax cuts…… the Door Dash delivery woman was supposed to champion the 'no tax on tips' initiative, but might be best remembered for dunking on Trump’s question about transgender athletes."
