By Dawn Ennis · Thursday, June 1, 2017
Lest there be any doubt that Christian televangelist Pat Robertson supports President Donald Trump, the longtime host of the 700 Club declared that God put Trump in this office.
Hes Gods man for the job, Robertson said this week, as Right Wing Watch reported. The 87-year-old TV preacher asked viewers to pray for Trump to win what he called a spiritual battle against our president.
Also during the program, Robertson answered viewer email, including one from a woman complaining about her narcissistic husband. He never owns up to his bad behavior, only covers up things, she said, and that divorce doesnt seem to be an option. When his co-host suggested that maybe the couple should seek marriage counseling, Robertson dismissed the idea.
Counseling? How are you going to counsel somebody whos ingrained in self-love? I dont know what you can do. The only thing that would change that would be a serious accident or some tragedy that might wake him up to who he is. I dont know.
Are you listening, Melania?

(5,324 posts)Republicans are not too keen about separating church from state.... Robertson's industry wants government subsidies, it's as simple as that.

I bet that you are correct, though.
Christopher Hitchens comments about Jerry Falwell will apply equally to Pat Robertson when he dies. "If they had given him an enema, he could be buried in a matchbox."

(2,404 posts)There is a huge difference between a Christian and a wingnut.
The wingnuts are getting this Trump is God's spokesman crap from a couple of verses in Acts. It says that if a man or men are put into a position of power by God, resisting or fighting against them won't work, and may be the same as fighting God himself. But it also says that if their origin or purpose is from man, it will fail.
He's a pompous, self-righteous phony.
