He shows everyday that he’s the opposite of Christ. He’s Been the Anti-Christ to me since 2015. If you look at him and see anything other than a fraud, you are not a seeing soul. I’ve always been able to see people for who they are.. discernment is my superpower.. wolf in sheep’s clothes. Great read.

The writer here says "I'm not asking you to change your politics or abandon your values." I AM asking them to change their politics, because they DID abandon their values. If they want to RECLAIM their values, their politics absolutely need to change, immediately.

I believe in Christ, but I absolutely do not believe in Christians. I am one of the people who do not accept their witness for one second, because their political support for that candidate shows me clearly that they deny their own witness. "By their fruits you shall know them." And there are no good fruits here.

Well said. I hope the religious community will read this and understand what it means.

I highly doubt they will. They may claim to be Christians, but they're also human—which means they don't want to admit they were so easily hoodwinked by this charlatan.

I really appreciate your heart and hard work. I would however really like to see current (2025) examples because Christians I know would read these and say "oh, but he's been saved since he said/did those things back in 2016,"..and, despite all of the evidence, will continue to give him a pass.

It is heartbreaking and, as you said, destroying our witness to the grace, love, mercy, righteousness of Jesus.

“Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.”

― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

He is evil through and through. I have seen him as the Antichrist since I first discovered him in 2016. The opposite of Christ in every way. And I'm not even a Christian! Though I was born one.

This article is excellent btw. Beautifully written, laid out clearly with no judgement. As you say, points for reflection. We were all lied to, and Trump is still lying, trying to make people believe he is sent from God while being, in truth, a hell being come to earth to torment us.

A lot of work you have put in this posting. My question is if « By their actions you shall know them » how come Christian’s or any other religious persons failed to recognize a lost and never repentant being. Why refuse to accept the evidence exposed by his actions ? His he or the deniers at fault? Quietly stop and reflect, admit your willing participation, empathize with all affected and harmed, ask not with words but with action for forgiveness and learn from your errors so you can escape the vicious circle. Come out of it enlighten !

Jeanne, that is exactly what my comment was going to be. Since his election this past November there would be 100 updated reasons of why he does not embody Christian values. I consider myself a true follower of Jesus, and have many so-called Christian friends who supported Trump. How they can be so blind is still beyond my comprehension.

The hair covers the 666. I had a lot of time on my hands I. 2016. Reasonablely devout Lutheran. Spent the winter reading the O.T. (practiced law 31y+ so I can't help it but I read differently). Did some literature classes. Now, I am at least agnostic.

Some people argue that Trump might very well be an anti-christ.

Beautiful introduction, stunning accounting of the greed, power hunger, ego (wait, this list is going to be too long) that is driving tRump. It is the message many need to hear, my hope is they find the message, and that they have the will to SEE and understand.

I hope that everyone who claims to be religious reads this. I think this brilliant article would be a wonderful starting point for church groups to use to really examine who they are and what they really believe.

Beautiful introduction, stunning accounting of the greed, power hunger, ego (wait, this list is going to be too long) that we see exhibited each and every day. Hopefully the people you are writing this to find it and have the will to see the truth. Signed, Not holding my breath.
