When Trump meets St. Peter at the Pearly gates?

Ok, it's hypothetical, but St. Peter asks Trump what good deed he did while on earth? Will Trump answer with, he took money from the and gave it the rich? Or, he bullied his way to the top? Or he worked with a foreign country to steal the election?

What is your thoughts?

1. My thought is that there are no pearly gates, there is no heaven

and there certainly isn’t any ultimate justice after death.

If we want tRump brought to justice it is up to those of us here right now to do something about it.

No sky guy up there, no devil down there. It is us, humans, who have to make sure this mo'fo is dealt with honestly, truthfully and done now while he's alive

4. The gates of hell, not the pearly gate, will await Trump when he dies.

And it won't be St. Peter who will be welcoming him, but rather the fallen angel Lucifer, to whom Trump seems to have already sold his soul.

6. Our "immortal soul" is in the memories of those we leave behind

Trump, hopefully, knows people will make millions organizing guided tours to piss on Donald Trump's grave. The knowledge infests his every waking moment, and he spends all his time thinking of ways to preemptively get even.

10. And its something many Christians will never understand

Many Christians believe church membership is license to be an asshole. How will they be remembered after they’re gone? To his relatives, who seek to find the good in him, he was a good father and a good provider. To everyone else, he was an asshole.

Trump’s worst problem is there’s never really been anyone like him. He’s not a Hitler, Mussolini, Pol Pot or Idi Amin, dictators who intentionally killed millions. And he’s not Herbert Hoover, a decent-enough fellow who was in over his head. The only reason Donald Trump is where he is, is his father left him a lot of money. This is a guy whose natural endstate is to be a carnival barker. He is too stupid to do this job. Witness his economic plans: cut taxes harder than Reagan did, while spending faster than Reagan did. (And Reagan didn’t have to recover from three huge hurricanes in his first year either.) The logical and decent thing to do in regard to taxes is to simply get all dolled up like he does and tell the television audience, “We have to keep taxes where they are this year, because we don’t know what it will cost to get America back on her feet yet.” Trump throws paper towels (btw, when is the Bounty Logo avatar arriving?) and gripes about the cost.

11. No such place. No such situation. We're on our own, here.

When Trump lives no more, he will live no more. The same is true for everyone. That's not just my opinion, it's the only opinion that supportable by evidence, really.

Trump needs to answer for his deeds while he's still alive, because he can't after he's gone. Let's work to put him on trial for what he has done. That's the only way he'll be made to answer for the evil he has caused.
