Trump called the first American-born pope weak on crime and terrible for foreign policy. Claimed he personally put Pope Leo in the Vatican. Posted an AI image of himself as Jesus — glowing hand, eagles in the sky, military forces in the clouds. Then said he thought it was him as a doctor.

And the MAGA Christians who survived the war, the Medicaid cuts, the generals fired during combat, and 42 million Americans who didn't get food in November — some of them finally said enough.

In this QTS Quickie we take the theological objection seriously. Comparing yourself to Christ is blasphemy. The religious community that pushed back is not wrong to push back. But we are asking the question nobody in that coalition is asking out loud — where was this energy when Pete Hegseth prayed for overwhelming violence with Crusader tattoos? When Matthew 25 people lost their healthcare? When the children went hungry?

The AI Jesus post found a line. Medicaid didn't. The war didn't. Ask yourself why.

The real blasphemy was never the picture. It was using the name of faith to justify everything the faith explicitly forbids.

Think for yourself.
