'Absolutely bonkers': Trump stuns after praising ‘Allah’ in curse-laden Easter message
President Donald Trump left onlookers baffled on Easter Sunday after, rather than issuing a customary message for the Christian holiday, he praised “Allah” – the Arabic word for God – while delivering a profanity-laced threat to destroy civilian infrastructure, actions that would likely constitute war crimes.
Trump’s outburst comes after several failed attempts to force Iran to re-open the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping channel that Tehran has denied access to for U.S.-aligned vessels in response to U.S.-Israeli attacks.
“Open the F----- Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
His profanity on Easter Sunday, coupled with his praise for Allah on the foundational Christian holiday, left even self-proclaimed MAGA supporters confused.
“Is President Trump a Muslim? Why would he praise Allah?” wrote X user “John,” a self-described “proud MAGA” supporter, in a social media post on X.
Others were equally taken aback by the president’s bizarre Easter Sunday message.
“Quite the Easter morning message,” noted Zack Stanton, a deputy managing editor for MS NOW.
“Great Easter message from the leader of the party of Christian values,” quipped author Luke Epplin to their more than 8,000 followers on X.
Some onlookers pointed to Trump’s Easter Sunday message as evidence of the president’s alleged mental decline.
“He has gone absolutely bonkers,” wrote X user “Roti Khol Deyo,” an infrequent political commentator, to their more than 14,000 followers.
“He’s having a nervous breakdown,” wrote X user “Another,” an anti-Trump social democracy advocate in a social media post on X.
