Now it's time to get into our deep dive with US political expert Corey Alpert on the power of religion in US politics and how it seems President Trump has crossed a dangerous line with a powerful support base.

Corey, thank you for joining us.

There is so much to unpack with this ever-changing story.

Can we start with this very bizarre social media post that the US president made a couple of days ago where it depicts him to look like Jesus Christ?

What are your thoughts on this?

Interestingly, the US president has come out saying, look, I didn't depict myself as Jesus Christ healing somebody.

He alleges that he was actually depicting himself as a doctor that was working for the Red Cross.

And he's also deleted that post.

What does that say to you?

Is this backtracking from the president because he realises the enormous damage this has caused?

And in regards to him losing his support base, because we know the evangelical Christians and Catholics right across the world, there is a huge power base for the MAGA group and also Donald Trump.
