In recent days, staunch Trump supporters have shifted from defending him as their messiah to arguing he's the antichrist. The latest catalyst was an AI-generated image of Trump in a white robe and red sash, prompting former congressperson Marjorie Taylor Greene to claim it 'is more than blasphemy.'
Other figures, like Liberty Lockdown host Clint Russell and far-right pastor Joel Webbon, have joined the chorus, openly questioning whether Trump is demon-possessed. The Knights Templar Order swiftly condemned these statements as sinful.
The shift marks a significant departure for many who once saw Trump's religious rhetoric as unifying, but recent posts about Iran and Easter have pushed his supporters to extremes. Tucker Carlson, in an Easter-themed rant, hinted at similar concerns, though he never directly used the term 'antichrist.'
The controversy also highlights tensions with the Catholic Church, after Trump's AI-generated image of himself as Pope Francis earlier this year and a recent spat over Iran. With his approval ratings low and Republicans concerned about midterms, this latest move could be politically perilous.
