President Trump posted an AI-generated photo depicting himself as Jesus. The shocking photo came after he publicly called out the Pope for criticizing the U.S. for bombing Iran. The photo sparked massive backlash, including from The View hosts. During the discussion, Joy Behar made an offensive comment about Jesus that left her co-stars in disbelief. They quickly corrected her misinformation. Keep reading for more details on the unexpected incident.
Joy Behar Makes Shocking Claim About Jesus
The View hosts agreed that the AI-created photo of President Trump as Jesus was wrong and an insult to all religious communities. However, Joy Behar went a little too far in calling out the President. The issue came after Sara Haines compared Trump’s post to what is written in the Bible.
“In Matthew and Mark in the Bible, Jesus alerts his disciples to not be deceived by false prophets who will claim themselves to be the Christ, performing great signs and wonders,” she said. Sunny Hostin chimed in that some of Trump’s supporters do see him as a “savior-like figure.”
“Jesus himself did not run around saying, ‘I’m the Messiah, I’m the Messiah!” Joy Behar said in response. The comment was met with immediate backlash from her co-hosts and the audience.
The View Hosts Correct Her, Push Back Offensive Comment
Joy Behar was quickly corrected by her co-hosts, including Sara Haines, who replied, “That’s exactly what Jesus said!” However, Joy Behar doubled down on her statement and reiterated, “No, he did not. Jesus was not narcissistic like [Trump.]”
Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines continued to argue with Joy Behar until Whoopi Goldberg shut it down. “I’m gonna move this along because this is too much for me,” The View moderator said. She added, “The Pope has God with him. God will take care of this.”
Fans Blast Sara Haines For Defending AI Photo
President Trump was confronted by the press about the AI photo portraying him as Jesus. However, he denied the allegation. He claimed that the photo portrayed him as a doctor. Sara Haines had a somewhat odd response to the photo.
While she agreed it went too far, she expressed gratitude that the U.S. is a country with freedom of speech. However, she claimed other countries would murder someone for posting the AI-created photograph.
The View fans took to Reddit to blast Sara Haines for defending the photo, with many claiming she was dissing Middle Eastern countries.
- “Just wow. As ever, totally beside the point and saying pretty much nothing at all”
- “I thought I was going to throw up when she said that.”
- “She cloaks her bigotry in tolerance”
- “I rolled my eyes so hard when she said that. I knew she was going to say nothing as usual.”
- “No president should do that. Yes we have freedom of speech but he’s the president”
President Trump didn’t back down after the backlash. Instead, he posted another AI photo of himself and Jesus together. Share your thoughts in the comments about Joy Behar’s shocking statement.
