Tucker CarlsonsaysDonald Trumpmay be the 'antichrist' as he slammed the president for posting controversialAIimages of himself as Jesus and posing with Christ.
The right-wing commentator condemned Trump in the latest episode of The Tucker Carlson Show, criticizing him for 'mocking' the Christian faith on social media.
He called out a Truth Social post from Trump on Thursday showing him being embraced by Jesus, with Carlson claiming the image aligned with warnings from the Bible.
Carlson said the Bible cautions a figure like Trump could emerge in the future, described as a 'man of lawlessness' - or the 'antichrist' - who leads people against religion.
He suggested Trump matches the scripture's description of this entity, as a 'man who will oppose and exalt himself over everything that is worshipped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple proclaiming himself to be God.'
'He will pose as God,' Carlson continued. 'He will mock other Gods, and put himself in their place.'
Carlson said other passages in the Bible also warn about similar 'antichrist' characteristics, including the 'coming of a King who will do as he pleases.'
The Bible verse says the antichrist will 'exalt and magnify himself above every God', which Carlson said represented Trump's posts 'mocking' Christianity.
