Trump’s God Complex is Getting Even Worse

He believes he's the savior, not because he wants to save anyone but because he wants to dominate everyone

Late last Sunday night, Trump posted on Truth Social the most grandiose depiction any U.S. president as ever made of himself.

I’ve reproduced it here. Take a look and remember: It came from Trump.

What kind of a president would post this of himself?

ADVERTISEMENT

The next day, Trump told reporters that he posted it because he thought it depicted him as a physician. “I thought it was me as a doctor,” he said, adding that news organizations had misinterpreted the image. “It’s supposed to be me as a doctor, making people better, and I do make people better,” he said.

There’s something fundamentally wrong with the man.

Bishop William Shomali, the General Vicar of the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem, put it well when he said:

“The problem is not that [Trump] tries to emulate Jesus Christ, but rather that he tries to present himself as if he were a superhuman and great figure. If we consider Jesus Christ as a model, then we should emulate him—but that should be through his humility, spirit of service, and self-sacrifice, not through a desire for domination, authority, and marginalizing others.”

Earlier Sunday, Trump lashed out at Pope Leo XIV, following the pontiff’s public condemnation of the war in Iran. The pope had called Trump’s threat to wipe out Iran’s civilization “truly unacceptable.”

Weirdly, Trump accused the leader of the Catholic Church of being weak on crime and catering to liberals. “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,” Trump wrote in a Sunday night social-media post. “It’s hurting him very badly and, more importantly, it’s hurting the Catholic Church!”

Trump also claimed that Leo, an American, was selected as pope last year because of Trump. “If I wasn’t in the White House, Leo wouldn’t be in the Vatican.” The Catholic Church “thought that would be the best way to deal with President Donald J. Trump.”

Trump’s problem with Pope Leo is similar to the problem Henry VIII had with Pope Clement VII in 1531. Henry wanted to do whatever he wished but the Pope opposed Henry’s moves (instead of destroying Iran, Henry sought to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon). So Henry established himself as the Supreme Head of the Church of England via the Act of Supremacy.

But in contrast to Trump, Henry didn’t think of himself as the second-coming of Christ, didn’t try to substitute his own likeness for that of Jesus, and wasn’t president of a nation that calls itself a democracy.

It’s hardly the first time Trump has revealed his God complex. He has referred to himself as “the chosen one.” He’s said he was anointed by the “supernatural hand” of God to win a second term in office. He’s said “God saved me for a purpose.” He has ordered his face to be etched on coins and placed on banners draped from government buildings, literally idolatrous moves.

But Trump’s malignant narcissism is now utterly out of control. Attacking the Pope. Posting pictures of himself as Jesus. Claiming he won the war in Iran. The man has become delusional, violent, and dangerous.

El complejo de Dios de Trump está empeorando aún más

Él cree ser el salvador, no porque quiera salvar a nadie, sino porque quiere dominar a todos.

A última hora de la noche del domingo pasado, Trump publicó en Truth Social la descripción más grandiosa que jamás haya hecho de sí mismo un presidente de los Estados Unidos.

La he reproducido aquí. Échenle un vistazo y recuerden: provino de Trump.

¿Qué clase de presidente publicaría esto sobre sí mismo?

Al día siguiente, Trump dijo a los periodistas que lo había publicado porque creía que lo representaba como médico. «Pensé que era yo haciendo de médico», afirmó, añadiendo que los medios de comunicación habían malinterpretado la imagen. «Se supone que soy yo como médico, curando a la gente, y de hecho yo curo a la gente», dijo.

Hay algo fundamentalmente mal en este hombre.

El obispo William Shomali, vicario general del Patriarcado Latino de Jerusalén, lo expresó muy bien al decir:

«El problema no es que [Trump] intente emular a Jesucristo, sino más bien que intente presentarse a sí mismo como si fuera una figura sobrehumana y grandiosa. Si consideramos a Jesucristo como un modelo, entonces deberíamos emularlo; pero eso debería hacerse a través de su humildad, su espíritu de servicio y su abnegación, y no a través de un deseo de dominación, autoridad y marginación de los demás».

Más temprano ese domingo, Trump arremetió contra el papa León XIV, tras la condena pública del pontífice a la guerra en Irán. El papa había calificado la amenaza de Trump de aniquilar la civilización de Irán como «verdaderamente inaceptable».

Curiosamente, Trump acusó al líder de la Iglesia católica de ser blando con la delincuencia y de complacer a los liberales. «León debería poner orden en su labor como papa, usar el sentido común, dejar de complacer a la izquierda radical y centrarse en ser un gran papa, no un político», escribió Trump en una publicación en redes sociales el domingo por la noche. «¡Eso le está perjudicando gravemente y, lo que es más importante, está perjudicando a la Iglesia católica!».

Trump también afirmó que León —quien es estadounidense— fue elegido papa el año pasado gracias a él. «Si yo no hubiera estado en la Casa Blanca, León no estaría en el Vaticano». La Iglesia católica «pensó que esa sería la mejor manera de tratar con el presidente Donald J. Trump». El problema de Trump con el papa León es similar al problema que Enrique VIII tuvo con el papa Clemente VII en 1531. Enrique quería hacer lo que se le antojara, pero el Papa se opuso a las acciones de Enrique (en lugar de destruir a Irán, Enrique buscaba anular su matrimonio con Catalina de Aragón). Así que Enrique se estableció a sí mismo como la Cabeza Suprema de la Iglesia de Inglaterra mediante el Acta de Supremacía.

Pero, a diferencia de Trump, Enrique no se consideraba a sí mismo la segunda venida de Cristo, no intentó sustituir la imagen de Jesús por la suya propia y no era presidente de una nación que se autodenomina democracia.

No es, ni mucho menos, la primera vez que Trump revela su complejo de Dios. Se ha referido a sí mismo como «el elegido». Ha dicho que fue ungido por la «mano sobrenatural» de Dios para ganar un segundo mandato. Ha dicho: «Dios me salvó con un propósito». Ha ordenado que su rostro sea grabado en monedas y colocado en pancartas colgadas de edificios gubernamentales; acciones literalmente idólatras.

Pero el narcisismo maligno de Trump está ahora totalmente fuera de control. Atacar al Papa. Publicar fotografías de sí mismo caracterizado como Jesús. Afirmar que ganó la guerra en Irán. El hombre se ha vuelto delirante, violento y peligroso.
