President Biden on Thursday responded to former President Trump’s Christmas post with a religious message to love your enemies.

Trump’s unusual Christmas message, which he shared on Truth Social, called for various people he sees as “looking to destroy” the nation to “rot in Hell.”

Biden shared an article from The Hill about Trump’s post on X, formerly known as Twitter, and added a message to poke at the former president.

“There’s an expression they say in church sometimes: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you,” the president said.

"God forgives, I don't"

Or alternatively,

"We can't let God do all the work"
