Vance defends Trump’s AI post as ‘just a joke’
US Vice President JD Vance defended President Donald Trump for sharing an AI image of himself as Jesus on Truth Social.
“I think the president was posting a joke, and of course, he took it down because he recognised a lot of people weren’t understanding his humour,” Mr Vance said.
“With the Vatican, we’re going to have disagreements from time to time. It’s a good thing, actually, that the Pope is advocating for the things he cares about.
“We’re always going to have disagreements on matters of public policy.”
