      Donald Trump held an Easter lunch at the White House attended by faith leaders and cabinet members which was barred to the media. Things went wrong, somebody forgot it was a closed-door session and the whole event was posted on the White House website, before being hurriedly removed. 

      But not before it had been captured by an enterprising journalist. What was the US administration afraid the public would see? The event presented the unfiltered gospel according to Trump.

      His 40-minute [speech was full of secular knockabout](https://inews.co.uk/opinion/trumps-rage-hubris-tells-ustruth-losing-iran-4331491?ico=in-line_link), including a jibe about President Emmanuel Macron still recovering from the “right to the jaw” delivered by wife Brigitte, but it was also religious in nature and specifically addressed Holy Week.

      Trump was surrounded by Christian leaders with whom he feels totally comfortable, who adore him, pray for him and praise him to the skies. So what did he do? He went one step further than the usual shtick of comparing himself to George Washington and Abraham Lincoln and referenced Jesus himself.

      “On Palm Sunday, Jesus entered Jerusalem as crowds welcomed him with praise, honoring him as king. They call me king now, do you believe it?” Trump said, to laughter. More modestly, he added: “I’m such a king I can’t get a ballroom approved” (a judge had just stalled its construction). There were other, none-too-subtle references to Easter and his own political resurrection from the ashes of defeat.

      Trump spoke about how Jesus was betrayed. “We know the feeling,” he said. “On Good Friday, the son of God was nailed to the cross, crucified, and he died for all of us. It was a day of darkness, but it wasn’t the end. By any means, it was not the end.”

      Religious psychosis mixed with dementia leads to bad outcomes.

      Also how do you accidentally post this to the white house website? Why are they so bad at the internet?

      Didn’t think I’d be alive to see the day biblical shit started happening.

      I hate this timeline. Can we go home now? I don’t think this is Kansas anymore.

      these guys should study their own bible. Matt 24:5-8

      5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for [a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, [b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

      America is becoming a theocracy and to make matters worse American Christianity is so far removed from Christianity elsewhere its basically its own religion now and is even more dangerous

      This administration reminds me of a Stephen King novel, but scarier.

      Trump is no Jesus

      Hitler died 1945, Trump was born 1946

      So Dementia Donnie is the devils dumbass shit stain version of Hitler reincarnated.

      Trump probably thinks he’s the new, improved Jesus. He said at that lunch that if he were a King he could do so much more. And he thinks he’s smarter than everyone else. He’s nuts.

      How the fuck have Americans allowed these lunatics to take over their country? Utterly terrifying and laughable in equal measure.

      Been a while since I read the Bible, can someone point me to the passage where Jesus raped kids?

      Is he suggesting that if we nail him to a tree this weekend, he’ll be back in office in three days?

      Why is the source material so hard to access?

      Article leads to a UK news site that solicits a subscription – while gatekeeping a video of a public official making public statements.

      OP doesn’t link to the youtube link of it either. No wonder our discourse if full of sound bites and tik-tok clips. Everyone is trying their hardest to „monetize“ bullshit.

      >A Rhenish group of German „Christians“ in April, 1937, passed this resolution: „Hitler’s word is God’s law, the decrees and laws which represent it possess divine authority.“ And Reichsminister for Church Affairs, Hans Kerrl, says: „There has arisen a new authority as to what Christ and Christianity really are – that is Adolph Hitler. Adolph Hitler … is the true Holy Ghost.“ This is the way Hitler hopes to pave his path to immortality. It has been carefully planned and consistently executed in a step by step fashion. The Hitler the German people know is fundamentally the fiery orator who fascinated them and this has gradually been embroidered by the propaganda until he lie now presented to them as a full-fledged deity. Everything else is carefully concealed from them as a whole. How many Germans believe it we do not know. Some, certainly, believe it wholeheartedly.

      >As time goes on, it becomes more and more certain that Hitler believes that he is really the „Chosen One“ and that in his thinking he conceives of himself as a second Christ who has been sent to institute in the world a new system of values based on brutality and violence. He has fallen in love with the image of himself in this role and has surrounded himself with his own portraits.

      –

      >The whole „Fuehrer“ personality is a grossly exaggerated and distorted conception of masculinity as Hitler conceives it. … The great difference between Hitler and thousands of other hysterics is that he managed to convince millions of other people that the image is really himself. The more he was able to convince them, the more he became convinced of it himself on the theory that eighty million Germans can’t be wrong.

      EDIT: I’ve been downvoted by someone… defending Hitler? Strange. There are numerous similarities between the current regime and the WWII Germans. Both weaponized Christianity, and neither represents what is actually Christian.

      I believe that this is the speech.

      Why is it so hard to find source material that supposedly news articles.

      I don’t love YouTube either, but I’ll pay the price of watching their ads for the video hosting that they do.

      Remember when you laughed at North Koreans treating the Kims like they are gods?

    23. MediaKingpin on

      Which is it? He thinks he’s Jesus or he doen’t thik he’ll get into heaven?

      I think he’s just a simple insatiable greed machine who has no filter left and all the religioius talk is just people taking advantage of how simple he is.

      I’m calling it now: Trump will order nuclear strikes on at least one country from his deathbed.
