You probably remember Wayne Allyn Root. He is the gentleman who, about 4 years ago, proclaimed that “In Israel, Trump is loved like the King of the Jews.” An over-the-top statement if there ever was one, and which Trump himself soon thanked him for.
Here’s the background on what happened: On Tuesday, August 20th of 2019, Trump said that any Jewish person who votes for a democrat demonstrates either a “total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty.”
Donald Trump is an extraordinarily unique individual in many ways. Not only extremely wealthy, but his name is known in virtually every country. Even his former press secretary stated that Trump’s name was the most popular word in the English language and possibly around the world.
“… play golf at Trump Bedminster, he goes play golf at Trump up in Sterling and everybody asks the question ‘Is that not a huge marketing opportunity?’ I would simply ask you all to consider the possibility that Donald Trump’s brand is probably strong enough as it is and he doesn’t need any more help on that. It’s the recognizable name in the English language and probably around the world right now.”
In case you weren’t quite sure how vindictive Donald J. Trump is, yesterday on Truth Social he posted an all-caps threat that warned his enemies “IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU!”
The truth is that this is less of a warning than it is a promise. And it’s not just a promise of retribution against those involved in his legal problems, but it’s aimed at everyone who opposes him – either now, or in the future.
As we know, Donald Trump was indicted on four counts stemming from an investigation into the January 6 Capitol riot and efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.
Just like all the other investigations into Trump, these indictments have also resulted in actually making him stronger in the eyes of his supporters. Conservative politicians are falling over themselves to defend him, while his MAGA base loves him more and more with each passing day.
This past weekend we saw yet another step toward a potential worldwide Beast System, as Elon Musk officially announced he was rebranding Twitter into “X” – a name he has often used to identify his plans for what is called an “everything app.”
“Soon we shall bid adieu to the twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds,” Musk tweeted.
On Sunday night the company also unveiled its new X logo by projecting it onto the exterior of its headquarters. Musk later said that posts on the social media site would no longer be called “tweets” and would be called “x’s” instead.
In case you missed it, Trump once again used biblical language in connection with himself. He did this in a post on Truth Social, which reads as follows.
“Every time you see these Radical Lunatics and their partners in the Fake News Media talking about the ‘Trials and Tribulations’ of President Donald J. Trump, please remember that it is all a coordinated HOAX …”
The bible, of course, often talks about the trials and tribulations that Christians will go through.
In a recent video I talked about how Trump seems to be mocking bible prophecy with some of his statements on Truth Social and in his speeches. In a few moments I want to get into WHY Trump may be doing those things, and if he really believes in the bible.
First, however, I wanted to briefly cover 10 additional ways that Trump mimics Jesus, either by the words he speaks, his actions, or even his body language. The reason these things bear mentioning is that there is a two-fold meaning to the word Antichrist.
I just wanted to touch on an article on Axios this morning, in which it speaks of the 2024 presidential race being the AI election. Here are a couple of quotes from the article.
“Artificial intelligence and generative bots like ChatGPT are poised to upend modern American politics in the same way that social media reset the playbook in 2008, with mounting warnings for democracy.”
“Top technologists are portraying a dystopian landscape in 2024 in which misinformation and disinformation proliferate with a speed and ease that means ‘you can’t trust anything that you see or hear.’”
“The campaign will be… full of false information that anyone can generate… every side, every grassroots group and every politician will use generative AI to do harm to their opponents.”
“AI is now this huge amplifier for how you should not trust anything in print… and by the way you shouldn’t trust any images and you shouldn’t trust any videos, and you shouldn’t trust any audio either.”
The Antichrist and everything about his Beast system will be about casting truth to the ground. So, what can we do as Christians to NOT fall for all the disinformation and misinformation out there?
The bible actually gives us the answer. “Thy word is truth.” Study the Word of God. ♦
Just over eight years ago, on June 16, 2015, Donald Trump descended a golden escalator down to the basement of Trump Tower to announce his candidacy for president.
The crowd in attendance that day largely consisted of people who were paid to be there, to hold up signs supporting Trump, and to cheer wildly at his every word.
At the time, it felt like little more than a curiosity to the media in attendance. A campaign for president that wasn’t to be taken TOO seriously because, after all, Trump didn’t stand a chance of winning his own party’s primary, let alone the general election.
But little did America – or the world – understand the seismic changes that would come from Trump’s announcement on that day. Nothing would ever be the same again.
In case you didn’t hear about it, we have yet another scam dealing with Trump memorabilia, although this time it’s based on the idea that Trump will unveil a new monetary system in the near future which will make the memorabilia itself worth far more than the purchase price.
This scam is call the Trump Rebate Banking System, or TRB for short, and the sellers have tapped into an audience that believes that purchasing so-called “Trump Bucks” is a sign of loyalty to the former president, and that one day soon Trump will reward their loyalty by making them rich.
