Why do so many evangelical Christians support former President Donald Trump despite his decades of documented ungodly behavior?
An in-depth report from The Economist shows that it has a simple explanation: They believe that God personally appointed him to rule the United States.
In fact, the report cites a survey conducted by Denison University political scientist Paul Djupe that around 30 percent of Americans believe Trump “was anointed by God to become president.”
Divine right of presidents theory would also make all the Democrats appointed by God. But this shit is evangelical personal relationship with God nonsense, so I guess God told them personally that he appointed Trump to be president.
Knowing how Evangelicals are, they’d claim that the dem presidents are Satan deceiving people or, like in the case of Obama, are potential Antichrists. They need Satan to be powerful enough to fear and they use anything they can to reinforce that.
So either their god is powerless to stop this single fallen angel, or they don’t love their creation enough to care.
No no you see, he’s ignoring us on purpose. God loves us so much he just ignores all of our pain and agony! It’s all our fault too, yes us personally, because of some stupid fuck that ate an apple thousands of years ago! It all makes perfect sense! ^/s
Probably still just nuts hearing voices.

Have you seen a can or jar of nuts lately? They tend to come in large supply.
They also all have guns.
