I, Donald, King, and Jesus

Red Baron mangled the title of his blog along the lines of Robert Graves' novel "I, Claudius, Claudius the God," which in German reads "Ich Claudius, Kaiser und Gott." POTUS's narcissism plays into both directions.

The White House featured him as a king


He saw himself on Truth Social as a Jesus substitute, giving his blessing to buddy Jeffrey Epstein?


Recently, a real king paid a state visit to the United States. The British monarch paid tribute to the democratic institutions of his former colonies. When Charles addressed both houses of Congress, stating that executive power is subject to checks and balances and forms the basis of the rule of law, the assembled representatives gave the king a standing ovation. Even J.D. Vance stood and applauded.


However, when Charles turned to his favorite topic, environmental protection, the vice president remained ostentatiously seated and did not move a finger. In contrast, the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, followed the lead of most representatives and clapped in a standing ovation.

Here is a German view of the two kings.

Red Baron reported on Trump's ballroom and mentioned the Trump Arch.

Draft design of a $1 coin
The Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020 authorizes the US Treasury to mint special $1 coins for the Semiquincentennial (250th anniversary).


The US will soon begin issuing passports featuring an image of President Trump inside. It appears to be the most prominent use of Trump's likeness in items tied to the 250th anniversary of America's independence.

Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna introduced a bill in 2025 to add Donald Trump's face to Mount Rushmore.

Work has already started.
Stay calm, my friends! This photo is a fake. Experts say it is geologically and structurally impossible, as there is no suitable rock left to carve.

But just how far will POTUS's narcissism go?
