JD Vance, a Catholic convert who occasionally has sparred with church leaders over their criticism of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, said in an interview on Fox News Channel on Monday night that the president’s social media post with the Jesus-like image was “a joke.”
“Of course, he took it down because he realized a lot of people weren’t understanding his humor,” Vance said.
He repeatedly dismissed the focus on the president’s fight with the pope, saying it “isn’t particularly newsworthy” and there will be disagreements from time to time with the Vatican.
But Vance also suggested the pope should stay in his lane.
What humor?
Right? I’m not laughing.
I dunno what people are so upset about. I just came from the doctor’s office. The nurse called my name and the doctor then descended from the sky, wearing his doctor robes and shawl, hand glowing brightly as he stuffed a thermometer up my ass.
IS THAT NOT HOW ALL DOCTORS LOOK AND OPERATE.
When Americans got upset that John Lennon said the Beatles were more popular than Jesus, at least Lennon owned his words. He never called it a joke or belittled his critics. He calmly stated his reasons and eventually apologized for upsetting people.
I’m not saying this to hold up John Lennon as some epitome of goodness (he’s had his share of skeletons in the closet.) Rather, that even a snarky lad who built his public persona on taking the piss at any given opportunity didn’t fall back on the “it’s just a joke, bro” defense.
Wasn’t it supposed to be a doctor? What’s the “joke” then?
These morons aren’t just criminals and liars.
They are also criminally bad at lying.
The joke is that Trump would help someone.
He’s actually distracting him while they clean out his bank accounts as he lay dying, and twisting the knife in his ribs for his bitcoin password.
No, it’s supposed to be jesus, he healed people by touching them.
Trumps cope was that he was dressed like a doctor. Surprised that was his defense and not the classic, “an intern posted this”.
He is out of his mind is the thing. His handlers, the project 2025 people, can’t keep him from shitposting at midnight apparently. Seriously, he’s out of it, entirely.
Ha ha, joke about being the false idol of christianity. So funny. No one gets heresy humour anymore, people are usually so open minded about religion too go figure! /s
Jesus Christ.
What humor? That picture was sick.
Not Jesus… A Doctor!
It depicted: The doctor fries your brain with stupidity… until death.

You don’t joke about being the messiah. Especially not when you are not in fact the messiah and just a very naughty old boy!
