Former Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene squirmed on CNN after anchor Kaitlan Collins asked her about previous comments where she compared President Donald Trump to Jesus Christ. Greene joined Collins on CNN's The Source on Monday, where the two discussed Trump's most recent controversial social media posts. In one post, Trump called the Pope weak on crime and foreign policy.
In the other, Trump posted an AI-generated photo of himself appearing as Jesus Christ healing a sick man in bed. Trump doubled down on his comments about the Pope on Monday, but said he failed to recognize the clearly Christian iconography in the AI-generated photo. Collins reminded Greene that she had once compared Trump to Jesus because they both were arrested, and played a clip of her saying it. Greene seemed uncomfortable as she responded. We were talking about people being prosecuted unfairly by weaponization of government, political prosecutions, things such as the political protesters, Greene said. That's what I was referring to there. I wasn't talking trying to portray [Trump] as Jesus. I think that was completely different.
