“There has never been and probably never will be a movement like this again. Only God could deliver such a savior to our nation and only God could allow me to help. God bless America!”

- Brad Parscale, Trump campaign manager

And thank God for that! The last thing I want for a president is one more disconnected from reality than Trump. I want a president who thinks for himself, not one who makes decisions based on how the voices in his head interpret what a flaming Gardenia said to them.

Tonight it strikes me that I agree with Michele, if we define 'biblical' as 'governing like a typical crazed middle-east despot of maybe 1000 BC.'

Next person that says "God sent Donald Trump", ask them if locusts were out of season.

'He treated the Bible with callousness': Billy Graham's granddaughter attacks Trump for church photo in remarkable break from family
'He believed that action would honour him and only him. However, the church, designed to honour God, said nothing'

I saw Trump wave the Bible after he shoved the demonstrators aside.

This is what came to mind;

Revelation 2

13I know where you live—where Satan sits enthroned, yet you still cling faithfully to the power of my name. You did not deny your faith in me even in the days of my faithful martyr Antipas, who was executed in your city, where Satan lives.

That city was Pergamum. Pergamum could be an allegory for about any city.

On Tuesday, I posted a link on AK to a song that reminded me of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah.

I describe it as sacrilegious / sarcastic (or sardonic ).

Now this, two days later. Strange timing, but a meaningless coincident.

At least your take on the Cohen song is a more accurate appreciation that that of 90% of folks, according to the article....

Michael Cohen says Trump once said after meeting evangelical Christians: 'Can you believe people believe that bulls---?'

Michael Cohen, the former fixer and lawyer to President Donald Trump, is releasing a memoir on Tuesday called "Disloyal."

In the book, Cohen details how Trump reacted after meeting with evangelical Christians before winning the 2016 election. An excerpt was published by The Washington Post.

According to the excerpt, Cohen says Trump remarked after the meeting: "Can you believe people believe that bulls---?"

Cohen also says it was a "cosmic joke" that Trump had managed to convince working-class people that he cared about them when "the truth was that he couldn't care less."

Evangelicals — who make up one in four Americans — were credited with helping Trump win the White House, with 80% voting for Trump in 2016.

The joke is very much on them. They're Donny's suckers.

Sad that Donny's former "fixer" is infinitely more credible than the current occupant of the Oval Office.
