Televangelist Pat Robertson declares that Biden will be president and that Trump "lives in an alternate reality," "is very erratic," and should not run again in 2024: "You've had your day and it's time to move on."

(14,488 posts)I went to the web site of one of the megachurches here in town last spring just to see if they were going to on-line services like they should. They were, although they made a big point that they had set up a drive-through for contributions, or it could be mailed in.
They have to keep the grift going and the lights on, I suppose.

(14,488 posts)to contribute to all the charities like I did before retirement - global relief funds, environmental causes, political causes of all sorts, etc. It's depressing because I still get the solicitations in my mail, and those are all good causes and need our help right now.
So, I can guess what a right-winger is going through - with solicitations from Trump, the NRA, the RNC, dozens of wingnut politicians, pro-life orgs, My Pillow, wingnut think tanks, fake veterans causes, etc., but I have absolutely no sympathy for them.
It's a damn shame all their free funds, time and energy are going to the evil side of our world......

(58,785 posts)reads something like an obituary, and it's not about Trump but about the severe damage they've done to their brand. (It does end with the warning, " The last time they were on the outside looking in, it was galvanizing for them." Franklin Graham and Robertson are burying Trump with hypocritical honors before heading out to lead the march of post-Trump evangelism for god.
White evangelicals are hailing the Trump era. Will their alliance with him stunt their influence going forward?
The percentage of White evangelicals in America has declined over the past decade. According to the Public Religion Research Institute, that decreased from 21 percent in 2010 to 15 percent at the end of the decade.
And as Trump heads out of the White House, many Black Christians who have long practiced their faith with White evangelicals are less interested in being in those faith spaces. Some Christians say, Its not about race, its about grace. Its not about skin, its about sin, former NFL linebacker Emmanuel Acho told The Post in August. Its hard for Black people to attend predominantly White churches, specifically when White pastors are silent on the issues that matter to Black people.

(14,488 posts)I guess evangelicals will now go into persecution mode for four years, a state that allows church leaders with private jets to suck even more assets from the sheep.
It would do my old-fashioned heart lots of good if many of the megachurches have to shut down and the buildings converted into community centers, homeless shelters or healthcare clinics for the poor.
