Evidently there are absolutely no limits to Donald Trump's ego and his unlimited,
narcissistic thirst for self aggrandizement. Posting an image of himself as the pope
was not enough for him; now he sees himself as Jesus healing the sick, an image which
is sickening in itself, for anyone to view, and is totally the reverse of what he is doing
with his presidential power.
The idea of Trump healing the sick is a cruel joke on the people of the whole
world. It was Trump who dissolved USAID, the American foreign aid program
which provided funding to fight HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria, worldwide.
For the AIDS prevention program alone, that now leaves twenty million people,
including five hundred thousand children, at risk, without adequate HIV treatment
and services. And that is just one part of the total destruction to the health and
humanitarian services around the globe, which Trump single-handedly destroyed.
Murillo's thoughtful concept of Jesus healing the sick, can serve as an antidote
for the nausea inducing image of "Trump-Jesus".
