Actor Jim Carrey shared a portrait on his Twitter account of an angry looking woman he called a so-called Christian and a liar that was quickly compared to White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
Carrey tweeted to his 17.8 million followers Saturday night the colorful painting of the dark-haired woman, as well as a harsh message for his unnamed subject: "This is the portrait of a so-called Christian whose only purpose in life is to lie for the wicked. Monstrous!"
Some media outlets also linked Carrey's art to Sanders. Breitbart ran a story about the image under the headline, "Jim Carrey Attacks 'So-Called Christian' Sarah Huckabee Sanders with Grotesque Portrait." The Wrap used the headline, "Jim Carrey Painted a Sarah Huckabee Sanders Portrait, and It's Not a Pretty Picture (Photo)."
Many of Carrey's followers responded with images, memes and messages about Sanders:
