Now I am not saying that Trump is the anti-Christ, but it sure seems that his supporters think so. Cause as the bible says (you know the one that the religious right dont read) Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.
Trump doesnt have to declare himself God. He has supporters who will do it for him. It is staggeringly fucked up on so many levels. Trump the moronic, nasty, orange shit face, incompetent monster as the new messiah?

Is This God Bows Down to Trump Sign Real?
Political humor can sometimes be so arch that viewers fail to discern it as such.

What's True
A photograph of a Trump campaign sign bearing the legend "God Bows Down to President Donald J Trump" is real.
What's False
The sign is one of many posted by a fervent Trump critic and is meant to be taken mockingly rather than literally.
In February 2020, social media users began asking us about a photograph showing the yard of a house festooned with U.S. flags and Trump 2020 campaign signs, with one of the latter bearing text reading, God Bows Down to President Donald J Trump Declares He Is Perfect':
{snip}
The photograph is real and depicts a sign posted by an Asbury Park, New Jersey, resident named David Sander.
However, Sander is definitely not a Trump supporter. Since the 2016 election, Sander has posted over a hundred signs in his yard bearing messages that criticize and poke fun at the current chief executive:

As documented in a News 12 Long Island report, at least one of Sanders banners prompted an obscenity complaint to police, who paid a visit to Sander to advise him he could be charged with a crime if he failed to remove the offending sign:

As mentioned in both the old testament (Daniel) and new (Mark). There were to be many antichrists. He definitely is one of them.

I never expected us to have such an evil man in that office, but here we are. We're going to pay a price for this.

People are entitled to believe whatever they want to believe. However, when you believe that "the almighty who rules over the universe" looks up to Trump, my guess is that you're probably badly in need of a straight jacket.
