He was very much against what I\u2019m doing with regard to Iran,\u201d in reference to the war Trump started against Iran more than a month ago that has sent economic jitters across the globe and sparked fears of a wider Middle East conflict.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tIn a rare move, the White House took the Trump as Jesus post down, but the president didn\u2019t apologize and, in fact, claimed that he was the one who posted the image, which he thought depicted him as \u201ca doctor that had to do with the Red Cross.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWhite, a frequent critic of Trump, wasn\u2019t buying any of it, ending his post with a lament about the Catholics who continue to support the president. \u201cP.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!,\u201d White wrote. \u201cHe lies, then lies about the lie, then doubles down on that lie with another lie and they Just.
