    all its going to do is harden his peoples resolve to place him in power as they firmly believe he has to be for the “end days” to happen a la the evangelism of the last 100 years

      I tend do agree. This is very “preaching to the choir”. No Trump supporters are going to watch this and change their mind.

      I do think that “Trump only cares about himself” is a kind of powerful message but they only touch on that tangentially.

      I was listening to a BBC podcast Americast yesterday. They went to a Trump Rally, and interviewed people afterwards. After all this time, it still surprised me to hear people talk about Trump as though he’s a godly person. It was very confronting to listen to, a real demonstration of how different our perspectives are on what makes a “good” person.

        the fact that he is not godly is the point. his behaviour shows he is the “antichrist” that has to be in power for the end days to proceed
