Another day, another round of whatabouts, it appears.
Neither of those people is/was revered as a messianic figure like Trump is. Neither pandered to evangelicals or any other religious group as Trump did/does. Neither presented themselves as messianic as Donald "I Alone Can Fix It" Trump does.
Christ died for our sins, right? Did you know Trump was indicted for you? He said that just the other day. Did you know Trump's worshipers have compared his prosecution to the persecution of Jesus? We heard and read a lot about that during Holy Week this year.
Do you remember the infamous interview where our 21st century savior acknowledged that he's never asked for God's forgiveness? He did say, though, that when he "drinks my little wine" and consumes "my little cracker" that's kinda like asking for forgiveness.
I love the oft-cited theme that God often works through "imperfect" people. As if the only issue with Trump is imperfection.
