Rumours were swirling that President Donald Trump was being treated at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, after the White House announced he would not be making any public appearances on Saturday
I still don’t get how they don’t see the Antichrist comparisons. Though their Bible—which they know fuck all about—covers the Antichrist idiots being easily deceived too.
TBF, the Antichrist (as popularly understood) doesn’t really show up in the Bible and is a character created largely in the 20th century by Voltron-ing together a bunch of obscure passages. In the Bible, the term is used like four times and refers to people who are, literally, anti-Christ.

I actually have a theory about that. Regardless of whether you believe that the Bible is divinely inspired or not, clearly its authors knew a lot about human nature.
Humans haven’t changed much in 2000 years. Narcissistic assholes existed then, they exist today. Some scholars think that the authors were really describing Emperor Nero. It’s not a stretch to think that a description of Nero back then might sound a lot like Trump today.
Wouldn’t be surprised. Much of the Bible is just straight up plagiarised from Mesopotamian culture and stories. Why stop the slapdash there? May as well add in a “Fuck the Romans” bit and pair them to one of the monsters beasts.
Yeah, they’re full blown “the End Times are nigh, and we’ll all be raptured to heaven if we help it along” level crazies, but they vote like clockwork.
Its nice to know that he must make an appearance tomorrow or rumors of his demise will tank the economy further. Since its easter the president must make an appearance.
Because he doesn’t know any better. He is, truly and actually, one of the dumbest motherfuckers to ever failson his way into a position of power, and this is backed up by testimony of his teachers.
An 8 year old child, or even ChatGPT, can reliably predict his actions in advance because he really is actually that simple. He has specific reactions to specific stimuli that can always be gamed because they’re always the same. Guy operates like one of the ghosts in Pac-Man. If you know how his actions are wired you can lead him by the nose down whatever path you want.
His investors and handlers know this and use it to push their agendas. Everyone else makes the mistake of trying to speak at him like he’s a sapient creature, and that fails to get results because he doesn’t operate like a sapient creature does.
Watch that asshole make an appearance tomorrow and his idiot followers will call it proof that he is the Second Coming of Christ…

monstersbeasts.There’s a segment of Christianity that thinks someone like Trump will bring about the rapture so they support him fully.

Fundamentalist and Evangelicals struggle with reading comprehension and long-term retention.

Are you sure it would tank? It might get a hefty boost…
Please no. Ugh, he’s gonna do it, isn’t he. Why are all of his actions so on the nose and tacky?
