He's not even really a Christian. The only things Trump worships are money and power. He only invokes Christianity when he can twist it to his needs and to work up his followers. He'll say literally anything to get people to pay attention to him and tell him how great he is.
Just more evidence that whatever Christianity was "supposed" to mean it's now essentially just a tool for tyrants to expert control over people who refuse to listen to anything else.
"Now essentially just a tool for tyrants to expert control over people who refuse to listen to anything else."
Was it ever anything else?
Originally it was used to lift up the oppressed so they could overthrow those in power and have the tyranny for themselves.
That's the story they've been telling themselves so long that nobody really knows for sure. They certainly didn't allow any other narrative once they took control of every government they could.
The original narrative was that it was intended to get the poors to be content with their situation, but they included too much about being righteous so it ended up with being used to overthrow.
I've got a bridge in San Francisco for sale, cheap.
They think they're the opposite of the Taliban, but the difference between them, more and more, is just the book they point to.
There's an old card game called Illuminati that I rather enjoyed back in the day. It was a conspiracy-themed game where the cards represented different organizations, like the Boy Scouts or the Mafia, and you built a secret network of organizations controlling other organizations as you tried to achieve world domination. Cards were grouped into "types", such as "criminal" or "government", and each type had an opposite type that was considered an "enemy". It gave you penalties when you tried to have a group control an enemy group and bonuses when you had one try to destroy an enemy group. So when the Mafia tried to control the Biker Gangs that worked well since they were both "criminal", for example.
The "fanatic" card type was special. Any "fanatic" card was considered to be the mortal enemy of any other "fanatic" card. It was the most realistic part of the game, aside from the orbital mind control lasers of course.
That sounds about right. It doesn't matter how like-minded the fanatics are, each group thinks they're right and all the others are crazy/bad.
Hey guys, remember that time Trump had peaceful demonstrators teargassed and forcibly removed so he could take a picture in front of a church?
And then both the Bishop and the Reverend of that church called him a terrible person for using the church and the Bible as props for politically divisive behavior?
That's a good Christian. One that brags about sleeping with married women. Praise be.
Elvis was a bigger insult
