Trump posts image of himself as pope

In his latest jaw-dropping stunt President Donald Trump on Friday night posted an apparently AI generated image of himself as a Catholic pope just 11 days after the actual pontiff died, The Independent reported.

In his pope dress-up, the image of Trump is sitting in a papal throne, all in white with his right hand raised as if about to give someone a blessing. A large crucifix hangs at his neck.

The image was posted on both his Truth Social Donald J. Trump account and his “Donald J. Trump Posts From His Truth Social” on X.

There is no comment, just his name.

No big surprise. When Trump was asked at the White House Wednesday who he would like to succeed Pope Francis, he quipped: “I’d like to be Pope. That would be my number one choice.”
