President Donald Trump is facing strong backlash after posting an AI generated image portraying himself in a Jesus like form. The image showed him in a glowing pose, which many saw as religious symbolism.
The post quickly drew criticism from both political opponents and supporters. Religious leaders described it as inappropriate and offensive. Some conservative voices also expressed discomfort, calling it disrespectful.
Trump later deleted the post and said it was meant to show him as a healer, not a religious figure. However, the explanation did little to reduce criticism, as many argued the symbolism was clear.
Experts say this controversy highlights concerns about AI in political communication. AI images can easily blur the line between satire and reality, making them powerful but risky tools.
The backlash could also affect Trump’s relationship with religious voters, a key part of his support base. Overall, the incident raises broader concerns about responsible use of technology in politics.
