obvious fake though; the toilet isn't gold plated. he wouldn't touch it. he'd just shit himself and let someone change it later, rather than touch a non-gold toilet.

Matthew 6
- 5 And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
- 6 But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
One of my favorite verses. Preachers will do all kinds of contortionist shit to wriggle out of this one. Usually they don't have to though, because their followers only read the parts of the book the preacher cherrypicks.
There's an old concept I like- The best cure for christianity is reading the bible.
At least Heaven’s Gate kept to themselves. Applewhite was a repressed, self hating gay man who developed that kind of friendship damaged gay men and damaged gay women do. They didn’t proselytize in the later years, they didn’t kill others.
Trump is more a Jim Jones. Pretend to hold an ideology you don’t necessarily believe (Jones was known for being progressive on race - but was a sexual predator and one wonders what the benefit was). Once the jig is up, take everyone down with you.
Literally, this is a suicide cult.
When tf do they start killing themselves please.
They aren't trying to kill just themselves. They want to take the rest of us and life in general with them.
That's the worst kind of suicide cult!
Covid and now measles seems to be a start.

The day Trump dies will be a very interesting time for his supporters. I could see it going either two ways. One would be them denying it and treating it like when Elvis died people reported seeing him in public and the other possibility is them going full Jamestown.
3/4 of them will starve while awaiting resupply from the King of England?
Nah you mean Jonestown.

No matter his age and cholesterol levels, they'll claim 'the left finally got him'.

This is why I think Marc Maron was right: The guy needs to have a massive stroke, so his supporters can see him alive with weakness and disability.

This is why I was hoping for an electoral defeat instead of a successful assassination.
It's not the act that concerned me, it was the wild chains of disparate psychopathy that ensued from his followers. No better way to make a martyr than kill whatever they're preaching about.
This shocking outcome has been a lesson and loss for his followers, but they are no longer emboldened by his bullshit.
They'll change the legislation for non Americans to gain proper citizenship. Musk will then assume the mantel of leader when Trump dies. Trump will be like after Pope John Paul II or even a martyr. They'll be mass Christian Nationalist uprising as other in that group would want someone else to supplant him. That's the new out group after everyone else is taken care of

It's creepy that they're doing some weird religious gesture, but I think it's a lovely sign of the times that one of the freaks on the left (as we're looking at it) just has to record this emotional and reflective moment for their socials lol
It's called "laying on hands" among Christians. As in, "let us lay on hands and pray for them." In theory it should be a way of showing support that someone is not alone. Usually, I'd attribute it more to religious people doing a silent 'look at me, I have a direct line to God for this person!' [Like you said, they're so in the moment they pull out their phone; yeah, that screams holy moment.] Which is funny because Protestants think everyone has a personal relationship with God, so what's the extra prayer for? In case God wasn't listening to the requestor, but they might listen to Ultra Religious person? Doesn't sound very personal to me.

Hang on, is this a legit picture?
Yes. America has a mental illness epidemic, and it's primarily due to Christian evangelism.
Christians following a man that lies, cheats, and steals. Interesting.

I just don’t know how he became their Christian idol when he doesn’t even go to church and he has been open about that in the past.
There's a pervasive belief that god has chosen Trump as his "imperfect vessel" to get his shit done on earth. Therefore christians don't have to care about the character of the man, he's literally the force of god on earth to them.

What people forget is that separation of church and state is meant to protect both from each other. The mixture of Christianity with conservative politics creates an unsolvable contradiction between community and individualism that, I believe, has contributed more to the decline of Christianity in the US than the oft cited bigotry and child abuse.
You think as I do. When you mix church and state, you end up with both corrupted politics and corrupted religion.
When's the last time Trump even actually got near a church? Was it the photo op during his last term where he held up the bible upside down?
Maybe the church service after inauguration when the Bishop had the audacity to make requests of him during her sermon

Nationalism is more of a death cult than a suicide cult.
Is this a real picture?
Came here for the same question. Logic says yes, but realism says this fat bitch would never let normies touch him.

Not sure how true this is but it looks like a church group from Dec 2019 that visited the White House.

Jeebus.
All that prayer and the best God can come up with is announcing tariffs, cancelling them, announcing them again, cancelling them again...
Where's a lightning strike when you need it?
It’s a happy little accidental mass layoff. And a happy little tariff.
It's because you have to close your eyes and hold your breath to actually stand that close to him. Placing your hand on him helps ensure that he is at least arms length away or the stench is just too great.
