They're really not sending their best...
What are we doing here, Democrats?
Nice indoor/in ground pool, dude. Another rich, elite liberal who probably never worked a single day in his life gone off the deep end.

The movie Elmer Gantry [1960] explains this behavior. A fake Christian achieves fame and fortune, then downfall. The same swindle (and downfall) happens for fake Republican politicians and fake Democrats.
A charismatic charlatan begins a business — and eventually romantic — relationship with a roadside evangelist to sell religion to 1920s America. Based on Sinclair Lewis' novel of the same name.
Plot of Elmer Gantry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elmer_Gantry_(film)#Plot
Elmer Gantry is a hard-drinking, fast-talking traveling salesman with a charismatic personality who infuses biblical passages and fervor into his pitches as a way to ease and collect money. He is drawn to the roadshow of Sister Sharon Falconer and is immediately attracted to the revivalist's saintly aura. As the troupe leaves town for Kansas, Gantry sweet talks her naïve assistant Sister Rachel into disclosing information regarding Falconer's past, which he uses to con his way into her good graces. He joins the troupe preaching "Christ in commerce" and how he is a saved salesman.
Gantry and Falconer develop a "good cop/bad cop" routine, with Gantry telling the audience members that they will burn in Hell for their sins and Falconer promising salvation if they repent. Because of Gantry's fire and brimstone sermons, the group comes to the attention of the church council in Zenith, Winnemac, a larger city. Though Falconer's manager Bill Morgan does not think that she is ready to preach outside of the smaller venues, Gantry convinces her to go to Zenith. They meet with the church leaders, most of whom are wary of turning religion into a spectacle as Gantry does, but he convinces them that the churches must earn money to stay open and can increase their membership only if prospective members are first won over to Christ by attending Gantry's colorful revival meetings.
Traveling along with Falconer is big-city reporter Jim Lefferts, who is torn between his disgust for religious hucksterism and his admiration for Gantry's charm and cunning. As Gantry's sermons bring Falconer's group to larger venues, Lefferts writes a series of articles labeling the revival a sham, and reveals that neither Falconer nor Gantry has any credentials. Falconer eventually admits to Gantry that her real name is Katie Jones, and that her origins are humbler than she publicly admits. Falconer also becomes Gantry's lover and loses her virginity to him.
The success of the Falconer-Gantry team comes to the attention of Lulu Bains, who became a prostitute when her youthful affair with Gantry ruined her standing in her minister father's eyes and Gantry ditched her. Acting as a moralist, Gantry unwittingly invades the brothel where Lulu works, but sends the prostitutes out of town when he sees Lulu. When he meets Lulu privately after she phones him, Lulu wants revenge against Gantry for running out on her in Kansas. Her love for Gantry returns, however, when confronting him, and they embrace. A hidden photographer planted by Lulu records their embrace, but Gantry's love for Falconer prevents him from consummating his relationship with Lulu. Lulu proceeds to frame Gantry out of jealousy for his love for Falconer. Lulu blackmails him, and Falconer is asked to bring $25,000 in exchange for the negatives of the incriminating pictures. Falconer brings the money, but Lulu refuses to accept it, and the pictures are then printed on the front page of the town's newspaper.
Lulu had at first offered Lefferts the exclusive story of Gantry's supposed sexual indiscretion, but he refused, shrugging off the pictures as merely proof that Gantry is as human as anyone else. An angry mob ransacks the tent revival following the publication of the incriminating photos in a

Nah...
The part about the antichrist that everyone seems to forget is that just about everyone loves him after he comes.
As much as I like the guy, I don't think DJT fits that description at all.
And I'm pretty sure that "some have speculated" that almost every president in my lifetime and even beyond that were the antichrist. I know I heard it when both GWB and Obama were President. Hell... I probably said it about both of them myself, more or less half jokingly.
I'm kind of surprised this is the first time I've heard it about Trump, actually. Until now, Trump and Biden were probably the only presidents that I hadn't heard people saying that about. They're probably saying it about Trump now since he's playing WWF Wreslemania with the Pope at the moment. Nobody ever said it about Joe Biden* because everybody knew he was a dipshit dumb fuck even before his brain went swiss cheese. Obama sure knew it.

Quote:There is no mention in the definition of antichrist about being 'lovable-by-just-about-everyone'. Trump fits the dictionary's description perfectly. The Antichrist is defined in Christian theology as a figure or force that opposes Jesus Christ, expected to appear before the Second Coming to spread evil and deception. It represents a "man of lawlessness" or a deceptive political/religious adversary. Generally, it refers to a powerful, malevolent force opposing goodness or faith.

Hey Google, Will everybody love the Antichrist when he comes?
Quote:
According to biblical interpretation and apocalyptic literature, the Antichrist will not be universally loved, but he will be admired, followed, and worshipped by a vast majority of the world's population. He is described as a deceptive, charismatic figure who brings temporary peace and economic stability during a time of global crisis, causing the world to marvel at him.
Shut the fuck up, Second.
