The Republican Messiah: "Does Trump Think He's God?" Politico Article May 30, 2025

His takeaway from the Butler attempted assassination (where his ear "grew back" miraculously with no medical records released) have changed him, but not in the way it was reported.

He thinks he was saved by God to enforce an autocratic, authoritarian agenda, egged on by certain "Christian" people who view him as their Messiah.

Contrary to most of church history and Biblical interpretations which warn of a coming singular individual who will proclaim himself as God, many of the MAGA cultists have blindly followed their Messiah.

This is an interesting article.

Perfect for those who consider Trump such a good Christian. Ironic that Jesus was an observant Jew.

…that the Beast is the one who has been healed from a deadly wound, and thus gained earthly power for evil.

“One of its heads seemed to have received a death blow, but its fatal wound had been healed. In amazement the whole earth followed the beast.”
– Revelation 13:3
