I know you’re joking, but big T is definitely not Jesus 2.0
Big T is for sure the line in the sand between Good and evil for the Great War to be, and I think the heavenly powers are surrounding him, but he is definitely not Christ like.
God explicitly told thr Israelites that if they wanted a king like the other countries around them, they would each be progressively worse and would each take the country one step further towards judgement. Each would be worse than the other. God's promise.
Say what you want about Saul, look at David's household: the first and rightful son was taken by God. The second son Absalom raped and killed concubines. The third son Solomon rejected all wisdom taught by his dad and against everything he himself preached.
Sounds like a real bang-up father figure. And if a king doesn't have his own household in order, how's he going to have a kingdom in order? Look at Biden
To be Christ-like is to carry your own cross. Trump is carrying an immense cross. I’m willing to bet that the vast majority of people who would dare to invoke such authoritative claims could not define “Christ like” outside of shallow puritanical claims. Even Christ experienced fury and aggressively broke a ton of shit, flipping tables and raging in the temple while subverting the political system of the time, hanging out with the non-puritans, declaring that he came TO BRING A SWORD, NOT PEACE, TO TURN FAMILY ON ONE ANOTHER.
None of us know how God regards Donald Trump. And none of us knows entirely what sins Trump has committed. But if someone considers “Christ like” to be without sin, then all of us are very far from “Christ like”. If someone understands grace, forgiveness, and mercy, then it’s not hard to accept that we are all made in His image. To be theologically clear, the Holy Spirit has filled us, and God regards us as his children, along with his Son who demonstrated how one carries their own cross in the ultimate manner—unto death.
Get out of here with the self-righteous and unnecessary divisiveness. Take the plank out of your own eye. To declare what is and is not Christ-like with confidence will forever be the hallmark of a charlatan and Pharisee.

Agree. We must all remember he is just a man.
More of a "King David" figure, really.
David was awful.

God bless, Donald Trump.

The Lord works with what he's got.
King David did, though. And he was a man after God's own heart.
Get to know Christ and you’ll know that Jesus is like none other.
