(2/2) No, Jesus Did Not Believe in the Inerrancy of the Bible: In Awe Of Jesus On The Cross

Now, the conclusion:

• Trump on his indictments: “I’m doing it for our country to show how evil and sinister a place it has become.”

The Trump indictments have actually been opportunistically hijacked by Trump to label the DOJ and Liberals as Evil, although none of this is really about Trump in the grand scheme of the Trump Game Plan. It’s about the voters. The game plan is to get the voters to see Trump as a victim and see themselves vicariously in Trump in whatever way they feel unjustly persecuted in their own lives. You saw today the GOP jump to Trump’s defence with this newest indictment citing such things as timing of the charges and free speech, but this support is probably less a result of righteous anger (you can’t plead free speech to protect your hiring of a hitman, for instance) and more out of fear by the GOP members of being labeled a RINO (Republican In Name Only) if they don’t support Trump and risk losing the political support of Trump’s base.

But of course, given the topic of Trump Propaganda we’ve been discussing, would the pro-Trumpers pushed into a corner as they are say what they REALLY WANT TO and actually suggest the apotheosis (Becoming God) of Trump? Of course they would:

• Above: The Apotheosis of George Washington: fresco painted by Greek-Italian artist Constantino Brumidi in 1865 and visible through the oculus of the dome in the rotunda of the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C.

Thanks for joining me on this little wood path exploring Trump Propaganda!
