A former Fox News host revealed a “scary” truth Wednesday underpinning President Donald Trump’s latest shocking social media post during an interview on CNN.
On Sunday, Trump posted and then deleted an artificial intelligence-generated photo of himself appearing as Jesus Christ healing a sick man in bed. The photo also included pictures of military troops, the Statue of Liberty, and the American flag. The post sparked outrage among political analysts and observers, prompting Trump to eventually remove it.
Trump has since defended posting the picture, arguing that he didn’t recognize the Christian iconography and that he thought it made him look like a doctor.
Gretchen Carlson, who left Fox News in 2016, told “Erin Burnett OutFront” that the post was a sign of a deeper issue.
“There’s a deeper meaning here with him, because he’s continuing down this storyline, because some of his supporters do think of him as a savior of sorts,” Carlson said. “And so, now he’s continuing to push that imagery out there.”
“I think it’s a little scary, quite honestly, that we’re to a point now where just three weeks ago, his spiritual advisor called him Jesus, and there was no admonishment of that,” she added. “Now he’s continuing down this path. Where do we end up with this?”
