Jack White criticized Donald Trump for comparing himself to Jesus in an AI-generated image. White, a vocal opponent of Trump and his policies, shared a lengthy post on Instagram alongside the photo.
“Hey evangelical Christians? Remember that anti-Christ you been squawking about all these years and how he’d present himself as Christlike and bring about the end of days with a final war in the Middle East involving Jerusalem? Well…check out your boy now!” White wrote. “Listen, if the felonies, epstein files, rapes, bombing of schoolchildren, gestapo ICE agents attacking his own citizens, threatening to invade Greenland, Cuba, Venezuela and Iran all didn’t convince you that you fell for this deranged grifter, maybe this lil’ post will?”
He continued, “How can any so called Christian support him after this blasphemy? How could any Catholic support him after he attacks the character of their Pope multiple times? How did so many millions of people fall for this conman?”
White noted that Trump already has “worst President in the history of America on lock,” but he also wants to proclaim the president as the “Worst American of All Time.”
The musician concluded, “P.S.: after some backlash (looks like SOME christians actually take their own religion seriously) trump is now saying that this AI image depicts him as a doctor for the Red Cross! He lies, then lies about the lie, then doubles down on that lie with another lie and they Just. Keep. Falling. For. It.”
Over the weekend, Trump called Pope Leo XIV “weak” and a “loser” in a post on Truth Social. The president later shared an image of himself as Jesus, which he deleted after much criticism and claimed it actually depicted him as a doctor.
Pope Leo XIV, the first American ever elected to lead the Catholic Church, has been sharply critical of Trump’s warmongering, particularly lately amid the United States’ war of choice against Iran. “God does not bless any conflict,” Leo wrote on Friday. “Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.”

“Pope Leo is WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy,” the president wrote. “Leo should get his act together as Pope, use Common Sense, stop catering to the Radical Left, and focus on being a Great Pope, not a Politician. It’s hurting him very badly and, more importantly, it’s hurting the Catholic Church!”
Trump’s posts have been criticized strongly by many Catholic and political leaders. “I am disheartened that the President chose to write such disparaging words about the Holy Father. Pope Leo is not his rival; nor is the Pope a politician. He is the Vicar of Christ who speaks from the truth of the Gospel and for the care of souls,” Archbishop Paul S. Coakley, president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, said in a statement.
