Trump, again, played the god card. Affirming his divine and righteous purpose.*
* god put him here because he's the Antichrist. A fucking demon. There are no angels left.
I'm still unconvinced of any God's existence, let alone the Abrahamic God.
But if I did, I'd believe with 100% certainty that this man is the antichrist.
I can't remember the website, but awhile back someone made a blog post that draws parallels between the Bible and real life to show that DT is the antichrist, and as someone who's read it cover to cover, it's creepy how much matches up directly, and how much more could fit a general aspect.
By general aspect I mean like how you could see someone 500-2,000 years ago describing an A-10 Warthog (with the stereotypical angry face painted on the side) as a screeching bird of prey with the head of a lion that spits fire and thunder from its mouth.
Enough fits. Even if you don't believe in an antichrist, the fact that so much lines up with the LITERAL worst possible being on earth should be alarming.
Running as Republican-lite and courting the neocons will just serve to validate right-wing ideologies and strengthen the vote for the real Republican candidate. Harris needed to lean into the Walz platform, but her consultants clearly failed (sabotaged?) her. Add to this the fact that Americans grown to hate standard politicians—at least for president—and it's clear this was Trump's election to lose.
This video explains it well:

Basically Trump is a very American person, stemming from a very American history and culture.
He's not an ideal, he's not what they want American history and culture to have been. He's a product of what it actually has been.
‘member when Americans apologised to the world for re-electing Bush?
Yeah. They didn’t mean it.
To be fair, the Americans doing the apologizing probably did, the ones that liked having Bush wouldn't have apologized in the first place?
America is a shit hole. Who could argue at this point?
We are a nation of sad small scared people. Machiavelli was right.
This is the US of A. Fear, anger, hate. Everyone else knows it. They just need to admit it to themselves.
Wrong sentence to put "Opinion:" in front of
that's just, like, a fact, man
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
one only has to step outside and walk among the people out there to see how simple their view of life is. reading about it doesnt have the same effect and watching it on video is a scripted mess.
