Last month Trump vowed to defend Christianity and urged Christians to vote for him

“This is really a battle between good and evil,” evangelical TV preacher Hank Kunneman says of the slew of criminal charges facing Donald Trump. “There’s something on President Trump that the enemy fears: It’s called the anointing.” 

The Nebraska pastor, who was speaking on cable news show “FlashPoint” last summer, is among several voices in Christian media pressing a message of Biblical proportions: The 2024 presidential race is a fight for America’s soul, and a persecuted Trump has God’s protection.

“They’re just trying to bankrupt him. They’re trying to take everything he’s got. They’re trying to put him in prison,” author, media personality and self-proclaimed prophet Lance Wallnau said in October on “The Jim Bakker Show”, an hour-long daily broadcast that focuses on news and revelations about the end times that it says we are living in.

At his next rally, I imagine he'll waddle onstage to Jesus, He Knows Me.

Per their beliefs…kind of, right?

God also gave them Biden

Speaker Mike Johnson said God appointed Biden as president

People thinking Trump is a Christian symbol is the biggest con ever.

He's literally the antithesis of everything children are taught in Sunday school. Greedy, cheats on his wife, a bully, not humble, etc.

Also a racist rapist.

Anti-christ is a Christian symbol, It even fits in the end of time they're jerking off to.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago

a persecuted Trump has God's protection.

Nothing they need to do about it then. Their God wouldn't be so weak that 90 some court cases and a lack of funds could stop their Chosen One right?

Not my God. I'm an atheist.
