The biblical story the Christian right uses to defend Trump
Why evangelicals are calling Trump a “modern-day Cyrus.”
https://www.vox.com/identities/2018/3/5/16796892/trump-cyrus-christian-right-bible-cbn-evangelical-propaganda

Evangelical thinker Lance Wallnau then gives Mitchell his take: Trump is a “modern-day Cyrus,” an ancient Persian king chosen by God to “navigate in chaos.”

Mitchell notes that some evangelicals disagree but does not name or cite them. Instead, he cites the growing threat of China, Russia, and Iran, before Wallnau concludes, “America’s going to have a challenge either way. With Trump, I believe we have a Cyrus to navigate through the storm.”

The comparison comes up frequently in the evangelical world. Many evangelical speakers and media outlets compare Trump to Cyrus, a historical Persian king who, in the sixth century BCE, conquered Babylon and ended the Babylonian captivity, a period during which Israelites had been forcibly resettled in exile. This allowed Jews to return to the area now known as Israel and build a temple in Jerusalem. Cyrus is referenced most prominently in the Old Testament book of Isaiah, in which he appears as a figure of deliverance.

Not just white evangelical Christians. Netanyahu too. Are Jewish people also part of the Cult of Trump? Mikdash Educational Center in Israel minted a commemorative coin showing Cyrus and Trump together. They even got the fat bags under his chin right. One can be yours today for a mere fifteen bucks.

Evangelicals love tRUmp because like them tRUmp thinks women should be subservient to men. That's why they don't care about the affairs and his mistreatment of women,he's just like them.

That would be line items 3 and 5 in the list of distinguishing characteristics of a cult.

3. Emphasizing special doctrines outside scripture



5. Dishonoring the family unit

I know how most of the 'liberals' here can't stand to watch videos, but Chris Hedges wrote a book about this very bunch of religious fascists;


IF they watch it, they may come to understand why I distrust any initiative that undermines the constitutionally enforced separation of church and state in this country.
