The Trump-Jesus Images


Trump has shared two AI-generated images on Truth Social this week that involve religious themes, sparking significant debate among his supporters and critics. On Sunday, April 12, 2026 (Orthodox Easter) Trump posted the image above that appears to depict him in the likeness of Jesus Christ.


Many conservative Christians and religious leaders called the image "blasphemous" especially as this occurred alongside his ongoing public feud with Pope Leo XIV, whom Trump recently criticized.


The image also goes along with his mania that he is the only person who can save the world. Some people have now labeled him the antichrist.


Following the initial controversy, Trump shared a second image on Wednesday, April 15, 2026, which took a different approach. This image depicts Jesus Christ embracing Trump.


Both figures have their eyes closed in a moment of prayer or peace, set against the backdrop of an American flag.


Trump captioned the post: "The Radical Left Lunatics might not like this, but I think it is quite nice!!!". Supporters originally shared the image with captions suggesting Trump was "God's Trump card" against what they described as "demonic" forces.


Trump gets more bizarre by the day as he approaches 80. From now until the November mid-term elections - which could upend his control - one has to wonder what madness he will create to get attention and divert the nation and the world away from his mistakes and diversions - and diversions from his diversions. Let is pray.




Melania and Barron Trump



I didn't post or comment on Melania's message to the world last week - but it was obvious that something triggered her. Looking at her decision making over the last few decades, the most important thing to Melania is her biological family - and her son, Barron Trump, now 20 - and resembling his father at that age.


It has been speculated that Barron is on the spectrum based on public appearances and personality traits - to which I agree as a former Special Ed teacher and therapist Combine this with the fact that he is 6'9" tall - and his father is Donald Trump - it can't be easy for a young man trying to find his way in today's society.


Like many challenged young people, he would take a holistic approach to his future goals - sometimes guided by Melania who has always shielded and protected him from the limelight and his father's notoriety.


Barron is Gen Z - adults navigating a uniquely challenging landscape, marked by widespread mental health struggles and constant digital pressure. As the first true generation of digital natives, many face social media-driven stress and isolation - with more than 40% reporting ongoing anxiety or depression. I believe older generations dealt with the same emotional problems, but they just were not as widely recognized and discussed.


So what is Barron doing today? He allegedly spent his freshman year in NYC attending NYU's Stern School of Business then shifted his studies to NYU's Washington, D.C. program during his sophomore year.


College may not be for him. Other Gen Zs have also come to the same conclusion - not to spend four years in college without a goal or job opportunity at the end - and heavily in debt.


Climate change, the mistakes of past generations, a world in chaos, digital global connections, and intuitive feelings of End Times - sends them on a journey of self discovery - to fulfill their destiny as it unfolds.


Gen Z continues the pattern of healing and energy complete with holistic venues. Today Barron is director and co-founder of SOLLOS Yerba Mate - a Palm Beach, Florida-based lifestyle beverage startup launching in May 2026 - featuring a ready-to-drink, pineapple and coconut-flavored herbal energy drink offering a clean alternative to traditional energy drinks.


Now let's get to Melania and the Epstein Files. On Thursday April 9, 2026 - the day Melanie called the press conference - it was obvious something triggered her. One can only speculate that her behavior was a result of everything having to do with the secrets in the Epstein Files and what will be revealed about her.


Somebody said something to her that day - perhaps it was Barron - which was the final straw and she exploded - equivalent to pulling the tab off a can which releases pressure. If the can has been shaken - much like Melania's emotions - it can erupt in a violent spray of energy.




I first heard about Eric Swalwell years ago when he occasionally appeared on MCNBC at the time of Trump's impeachment proceedings.


The first time I heard his name I immediately associated it with a sex scandal for no apparent reason. After googling the name - and others like it - I found nothing. And so I moved on.


Now years later, I can put the pieces of the puzzle together. Perhaps what I saw was something in his future - because I didn't know anything about his criminal activities with women. As always, we feel bad for the victims and Swalwell's family.
