“I did post it, and I thought it was me as a doctor, and had to do with Red Cross, as a Red Cross worker there, which we support,” Trump told reporters at the White House, denying claims he was meant to appear as Jesus.

“Only the ‘fake news’ could come up with that one,” Trump added.

“It’s supposed to be me as a doctor, making people better,” he said. “And I do make people better. I make people a lot better.”

The president of the USA doesn't know what a doctor looks like (nor apparently does the AI he used to make it) while he works on the important issues, like a child on the internet.

This is how stupid his followers actually are.

In actuality, it’s more accurate to say that this is how uncritical and self-deceptive his followers are. The followers we are talking about here are Christian Dominionists (aka adherents of the 7 mountains mandate).

They largely don’t care about his insanity because they genuinely believe orangeboi and the regime are a means to an end - and, you know, they’ve finally got a shitload of Christian Dominionists in the regime’s leadership now. Them caring about the initial post was a rare outlier of them actually caring about this shit, because it began to tread - and reflect very poorly and obviously cultishly - on their messianic worldview.

uncritical and self-deceptive

A.k.a stupid

To be fair, stupid doesn't even cover it. "Moronic" gets closer but it's still lacking.

I suppose that number has massively decreased since he took control

Gives very church of LDS vibes. Don't question anything cuz I'm always right and you have to do whatever I say.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
