Ok...ok...I overreacted...but the reason why is because for some people it may be harder to separate reality from their desire to worship anything or anyone but Jesus. We all tend to want to put our faith in everything but the One in whom we should put our faith in and I have witnessed over and over again when this happens, the person who it is put on the pedestal (regardless of whether they themselves think they should be there) eventually gets a hard lesson in humility and I just don't want to see that happen to Trump. The man already has quite the ego...everyone knows this...but we do need him and so we need to make sure we keep the man in the proper perspective. So joke or no joke...I do think this God/Emperor thing is a little over the top.
Fair enough fren. Have to say though I wonder if the Trump ego is another aspect of his constructed media persona. I honestly don’t believe a man with such an overweening ego as he is reputed to have would have been able to maintain his composure to the extent he has amidst this ongoing onslaught over years. I think there are not many people who actually know the real Trump the man. I think a lot of people believe they know him but I think he plays his cards close to his chest and has done all his life. I recall reading an old article years ago when he declared his candidacy about the extent of his corporate intelligence network and his operation. I’ve never been able to find it since but it was a very illuminating article
I believe he is an imperfect man who is perfect for the purpose that he has been chosen for by a power greater than us. The phrase that has always gone through my mind since he came down the escalator is cometh the hour cometh the man.
