H.Res. 1226 — Original Resolution Condemning President Donald J. Trump for his disgraceful, despicable, and disrespectful social media post depicting himself as Jesus Christ, diminishing the dignity of the Presidency and bringing disrepute to the office

This section cites the resolution as the “Original Resolution Condemning President Donald J. Trump for his disgraceful, despicable, and disrespectful social media post depicting himself as Jesus Christ, diminishing the dignity of the Presidency and bringing disrepute to the office.”

This section sets forth 15 findings by the House of Representatives regarding an artificial intelligence-generated image posted by President Donald J. Trump on April 12, 2026, depicting himself in a white robe performing a healing act with a luminous glow and other elements signifying divinity, consistent with traditional religious art of Jesus Christ. The findings assert that public commentary described the image as portraying the President as Jesus Christ or a Christ-like figure; note Jesus Christ's central role in Christianity; and state that the President knew or should have known such use of religious imagery for personal or political purposes trivializes faith, offends believers, diminishes the dignity of the presidency, fosters division, and undermines U.S. values and international standing.
