“I did post it, and I thought it was me as a the doctor and it had to do with Red Cross, as a Red Cross worker there, which we support.”
“Only the fake news could come up with that one. So I just heard about it, and I said, 'How did they come up with that? It’s supposed to be me as a doctor, making people better, and I do make people better, and make people a lot better.”
Asked if he feels the need to apologize to Pope Leo, Trump responded “No, I don’t, because Pope Leo said things that are wrong. So, there’s nothing to apologize for. He’s wrong.”
On the one hand, he’s a pathological liar and loves evangelicals worshipping him. On the other hand, he’s demented, senile, probably doesn’t even believe or think about religion outside of lying for votes, and might’ve seriously seen it as some abstract rep of a doctor?
On the other hand, I feel like it’s equally if not more offensive depicting himself as a doctor (real human hero vs. imaginary magical hero)
