It's even being called out in the Twitter replies and Snowmanwhatever's agreeing with them.

And it should be straitjacket, in case anybody's ordering one for Trump.

So, since the vast majority of the replies do consider it to be real, I would argue your "It's fake, not even a good fake."
If it's fake, which it probably is, it is a "good fake."
I couldn't find any responses from Snowman "agreeing with them," but you're right about the correct spelling of "straightjacket"

I also found this Snowman repost:

His drunken street corner character Mudbone claims to have known Jesus then and goes into a pitiful ramble. Only the Pryor routine is hilarious.

26. Fact Check: Donald Trump Did NOT Say Jesus Told Him God's 'Happy That You're Making America Great Again' -- It's A Fake
Sun Dec 14, 2025, 10:37 PM
Dec 14
https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/fact-check-donald-trump-did-023218528.html



Did President Trump post on his Truth Social account that Jesus told him that "my father is happy that you're making America Great Again." No, that's not true: There is no post on Donald Trump's Truth Social timeline in which the phrase "my father is happy that you're making America Great Again" appears. Lead Stories could find no evidence the president ever made this statement.

The claim appeared in a post (archived here) on Threads shared on December 13, 2025 under the title "Jesus fuckin Christ... we're so fucked..". The text in the fake post read:

You know, I've known Jesus for a long time. He often says, 'Donald Trump, we are really close friends and my father is happy that you're making America Great Again. It's my favorite country.' When he saved my ear from the bullet he whispered in my ear, the one that was saved, and said, "The whole world owes you a debt of gratitude for being so Christian and having perfect morals.

A search of @realDonaldTrump account on Truth Social for the phrase "my father is happy that you're making America Great Again" found "No matching Truths."

When I first posted this, I thought it was a real Truth Social post....turns out, it wasn't, and I apologized for my mistake.

54 recs for a fake post is a dismaying look for DU, but at least it is not in the hundreds like I have seen before
