Trump 'Jesus' post sparks outrage

US President Donald Trump is attracting a torrent of outrage after posting a picture in which he apparently likened himself to Christ.

The picture - shared on social media network Truth Social - appeared to show Trump, as Jesus, healing a man, while surrounded by military and national symbols.

Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, an evangelical who was a staunch supporter of the President until last year, wrote on X: "It’s more than blasphemy. It’s an Antichrist spirit." This followed an earlier post in which she stated: "This comes after last week’s post of his evil tirade on Easter and then threatening to kill an entire civilization. I completely denounce this and I’m praying against it!"
