If You Believe Prayer Works, Please Start Praying for Trump to Resign

If you don't believe that prayer accomplishes much, then you can substitute campaign work for Democratic candidates for the prayer.

There's always something for both believers and non-believers to do. Personally, I prefer the latter course since I'm an atheist, but please do what you can.

The only way that he will resign is if his resignation is framed to look as if his businesses are suffering tremendously without him and he is needed to make his financial empire great again. It has to be a win for him. It would definitely be a win for us. This is my prayer.

So there's been ongoing prayer in one form pretty much since day 1

I figure no reason this is an either/or situation for persons of faith. Pray if you believe it helps, and campaign help too because God helps those who help themselves.

...stop going to the doctor. Stop going to the dentist. Stop eating. Stop drinking. Stop paying your taxes. Stop going to work. Because why bother with this expensive, inconvenient, and oftentimes unpleasant shit when intercessory prayer works?
