Trump posted an image of himself as a Christ-like figure on Lying Psycho yesterday. When faced with backlash from the religious right, he removed the image and explained that he was depicted as a doctor, not Jesus, which was patently untrue. J.D., for his part, responded to the furor by arguing that the post was a joke that some stupid Christians just didn’t get. While he was at it, he minimized the differences between his secular and spiritual bosses and told Leo to stay in the “morality” lane.
Two observations are pertinent here. First, J.D.’s story and Trump’s are mutually exclusive, so if Trump was actually joking, he was also lying. Second, launching aggressive and unjust wars is in the “morality” lane whether Vance thinks so or not.
