Making A Messiah: Allies Cast Trump As Divine Commander Following Assassination Attempt

Originally published at: Allies Cast Trump As God’s Divine Commander Following Assassination Attempt

Less than 24 hours after Donald Trump survived an assassin’s bullet in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, Jack Posobiec, the far-right conspiracy theorist and MAGA rabble-rouser, tweeted a Bible verse. “The bullets were fired at 6:11pm,” Posobiec, who is Catholic, wrote. “Ephesians 6:11.” The Bible verse, which reads, “Put on the full armor of God,…

It’s a cult.

Political messianic personality cult.

US citizens are as susceptible to it as humans in other parts of he world.

Something about using God’s name in vain comes to mind.

Sadly, it’s not just the Trump cultists treating Trump like a messiah. Sadly, but as expected, a large portion of the mainstream media is treating Trump as if he is born anew, as if none of his previous transgressions, crimes, frauds. insanity, and disastrous administration ever happened. They’re acting like he’s just a normal candidate coming in with a clean slate, as if he’d been baptized by Jebez himself in the Jordan River, instead of constantly reminding everyone that he is a convicted felon and liable for multiple frauds and sexual assault. Based on most of the breathless reporting from the stenographer class lately, it’s almost as if none of that ever happened. And that doesn’t even touch on the countless hours of free promotion they have already given this clown throughout Biden’s presidency.

Moreso. The extensive rural areas have been monopolized by religion and by the media. Sometimes both at the same time - like radio.

Russia’s hinterland is almost empty but for drunks and wifebeaters.

Except for his ears, Trump is completely bulletproof. Little-known alternative fact.

All owned or controlled by the same people - religious lunatics or people planning on buying a boat with their tax cut.

There is an obvious logical problem with claiming that a failed assassination attempt against Trump is a sign from God. If you assume that God is all-powerful, there is no such thing as signs from God, or rather everything is a sign from God.

I’m pretty sure the appropriate verse is Revelations 13:3 :

One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound , but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled as they followed the beast.

They really shouldn’t have made me pay attention in Sunday School.

Last night I ask God what she thought of Donald Trump.
She said he is a ASS HOLE.
Nuff said.

The modifier “spiritual” in front of “war” in this context means "not spiritual. " They’re talking guns, knives, guards with truncheons, furious mobs beating outnumbered victims. Mostly guns. Like, “I shoot you in the head in the name of the Holy Ghost.” There is a long and dishonorable tradition of such violence in christianity.

Whatever happens with the D candidate happens. I will support and vote for the D candidate. I have to say, though, Biden is not and never will be too cognitively impaired not to be absolutely bat-shit psycho homicidal crazy. The recent overwhelming focus on Biden, and almost complete silence about the murderous bat-shit crazy of MAGA, is a sign of something very wrong. I hope we can set it right in time.

Thanks for that! God hasn’t been answering my calls. I’ve been wondering though!
