He quickly followed that claim up by comparing himself to Moses as he parted the Maga waters and was put in charge of Trump's defense team in Congress.
Fun fact, MAGA Mike belongs to a hardcore Nationalist Christian sect that advocates against the LGBTQ community and minorities.
Co-opting God into the Republican party has been a corrupt tactic for decades. With him on their side they can claim to make righteous restrictions on our freedoms.
Take the newly elected Arizona GOP party chair, Gina Swoboda, for an example. She was on extremist extraordinaire Steve Bannon's podcast recently telling listeners that God talks to her, she has daily visions, and is on a mission to reclaim America for Christians.
In the dreary wastelands of MAGA there's not a clear difference between God and Donald Trump.
Supporters genuflect before the statue's presence and take photos alongside of it. Some followers in Congress call Trump the Orange Jesus. See what I mean? It's confusing because 53% of Republicans think Trump is a "person of faith" according to a poll by Deseret News. Talk about brainwashed.
Pure Perversion Conversion
Pastor Jentezen Franklin of the 25,000-member megachurch Free Chapel in Georgia, has been Trumps spiritual advisor since 2016. "You cannot be a Christian and vote for democrats," Franklin claimed at a recent Trump rally in Coralville, Iowa.
What's really blasphemous is some of Trump's most enthusiastic believers are pastors who share his dark view of U.S. politics - or who've touted him as they've risen to prominence on social media.
Paula White-Cain is a prominent pastor who backs Trump is popular in the Christian prosperity movement. (Basically, a scam to fleece faithful followers.)
South Carolina televangelist Mark Burns praises Trump's every word and action and claims he the second coming of Jesus.
Darrell Scott, an Ohio pastor and radio host goes out of his way to promote Trump every day.
And the list goes on.
What's concerning is Trump is having an easier time reaching evangelicals now than in the past two election cycles, in part because of the changes in the evangelical world, according to Tim Alberta, author of "The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory."
As it stands, there's a reason why America's Constitution firmly separates church and state. We believe a secular government is fairer to all Americans...not promoting one religion over others helps assure that.
