Faith without morality or theology, much less that "soyboy" Jesus? Sign Republicans up!

Faith without morality or theology, much less that “soyboy” Jesus? Sign MAGA Republicans up!

Earlier this week, Donald Trump unveiled his newest grift to squeeze money out of his cult followers: Trump-branded Bibles. Claiming the book contains the “King James version” and “also includes the Founding Father [sic] documents,” Trump promised “you have to have it for your heart, for your soul.” The screenshots of the video are funny by themselves, but I highly recommend watching the ad Trump cut for these Bibles. Trump radiates total contempt for Christianity.

This is Trump in his angry-bored mode, letting viewers know with his listless tone and posture that he thinks all this Bible stuff is dumb. The not-at-all subtle message of the video is that Trump doesn’t believe any of this faith-in-God crap, but he definitely believes in using Christian identity as a weapon to make money and dominate his foes.

Many Trump opponents on social media replied with video clips underscoring how Trump may be the single most ignorant person in the country about the contents of the Bible.

    Honestly that fact alone makes me question my atheism sometimes.
    He fits the bill for the Antichrist in Revelations almost word for word, his followers wear his mark on their foreheads, it’s been 7 years since he gained power, and there’s a war in the Middle East that has the potential to spiral into World War III, which would be Armageddon.

      Live a good life and any god worth worshipping will claim you.

      But also keep in mind revelations keeps having incidents like that. Metaphorical prophecy is really good at that
