Its probably self-evident that anyone claiming Trump is the Messiah is not right in the head, but just so its on the record, Wayne Allyn Roota self-described Jew turned evangelical Christianis an unhinged conspiracy theorist who believes the 2017 Las Vegas shooting was a coordinated Muslim terror attack by ISIS and that George Soros paid actors to stage the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville that included Nazi chants like Jews will not replace us.
Trump, incredibly, seems to believe that hes going to win over Jewish voters by telling them they dont whats good for them (They dont even know what theyre doing or saying anymore!). Or perhaps hes just given up on American Jews, and is looking to the Likudniks for narcissistic supply. Insulting Americans for being disloyal to Israel, where the second coming is going to take placeled by Trump in the role of Jesusseems like an odd pitch to anyone who knows literally anything about Judaism, but thats probably beside the point. Stay tuned for tomorrow, when Trump cites the teachings of Mel Gibson as reason for this particular constituency to get on board.

(7,947 posts)I was a bit amused and then annoyed that you posted that because, "It's not real, it's satire."
Then I saw you were right. This is what Trump has just posted.
I cannot believe "Christians" can look at what is clearly heresy-- saying he's the second coming???- and can support him.

(7,277 posts)The more important takeaway, (if you can believe it), is that Trump quoted a guy who believes that George Soros paid actors to stage the Nazi rally in Charlottesville.

It's not on mine.
I still need "End stage syphilis" or "Public defecation".

(11,885 posts)He knows he'll soon get fully exposed, and the old GOP are turning on him, and this is an act to use the insanity defense, but it won't work. They know this is just another con job. Republicans are realizing he'll not just lose his re-election, but he'll cause them to lose theirs too. Every day he.s in office more Americans will run from trump and them, and they will lose everything.
