In that warped eschatology subculture, a common belief is that the antichrist will be raised in the church and come to power by deceiving the church into thinking he's a prophet or messianic figure. Basically any authoritarian they choose to follow is the perfect figure to fit their beliefs. With Trump, for instance, they can point to "Christian" actions like blind support for Israel as the representatives of the original "chosen people" or his role in anti-choice enforcement or any us-vs-them conflict action that makes them feel like they are the current chosen people. Then if he turns out to be just another bad person who deceived them, they'll mark it off as a fluke, immediately forget all the evil they helped him do, and look for the next antichrist candidate.

Evangelicalism is a very sinister belief system. They literally want the rapture/tribulation to come about as soon as possible, preferably in their lifetime. They don't actually care about any of the people they think are non-chosen. I would say the Calvinists/Reformed Protestants are even worse, because they believe the verses about some people being ordained before birth to be "elected" by God to be saved without any say of their own, and the vast majority of people are also predestined for eternal destruction (https://www.learnreligions.com/five-point-calvinism-700356).

And they all vote.

Dude if Jesus appeared tomorrow the Republicans would line up to burn him. They don’t have real beliefs, just symbols.

That's makes sense actually, anitchrist means the End Times^TM are here. Christians see that as a good thing

Funnier yet that Jesus explictly warned against false profits like Trump.

If god gives you trump, you apologize, because you did something wrong.

They're dumb bro. Or they're evil. Or both

"Biden made grocery more expensive!"

Looks at multibillion dollar corps bribing congress

"I see nothing wrong here"

The book of Daniel lays out what the anti-christ will do and how he will behave. It describes Trump perfectly.

Remember this is not a failure of conclusions (Trump is sent by god), but a failure of proceedings (belief and faith is superior to facts and reality).

They lack the critical thinking skills to even begin to digest and elaborate an argument that relies of evidence and principled thinking. They don't evaluate reality on principles, they evaluate reality on emotion, identity and authority above all else. Therefore, fact checking is not even a possibility.

He was already known as a sleazy conman and the butt of jokes for decades before he won in 2016. How could they not know?

I've heard many say they don't like what he has done but somehow he is still the best thing ever in spite of that.

Maybe it ties into the Christian redemption thing.

Same thing that happened to Mark 12:17

Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.” And they were amazed at him.

And yet they do anything they can to avoid paying taxes.

And let's not forget Mark 10:25

It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”

Yet they glorify a man who brags about how rich he is.

How is it that I, an atheist Jew, know Jesus better than they do?

This is all such absolute insanity. So disappointed in the human race these days.

He's literally the antithesis of everything children are taught in Sunday school. Greedy, cheats on his wife, a bully, not humble, etc.

Anti-christ is a Christian symbol, It even fits in the end of time they're jerking off to.

Don't you dare slander Satan this way!

Lol imagine meeting Jesus and he tells you to fuck off
