@marklemley don't forget the slip where he accidentally said, "I'm not Christian".
It is like a thing that the Antichrist would be compelled to say just so it can be pointed to later when all his followers say, "I didn't know! How could I have known?"
God, I hate this book.
@spocko @marklemley I listened closely to the video about a half hour ago on a large media website and to my surprise it wasn't even close.
The corporate media, so afraid of bias accusations from the 'party of stupid ideas' has, for several years, been modifying quotes to be a less appalling version of what he probably meant to say. Easier than reporting when the party provides a transcript of their "approved" speech. I think they started giving in during the Bush Jr. years.
@Urban_Hermit @marklemley Here is the CBS transcription. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/donald-trump-christian-voters-turning-point-action/?ftag=CNM-00-10aab7e&linkId=524934086
Trump continued: "I love you Christians and I'm a Christian. I love you, you got to get out and vote. In four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good, you're not going to have to vote."
Here is where Trump lies.
Toward the end of his hour-long speech, Trump said that the Democrats rigged the 2020 presidential election – which Trump falsely maintained that he won over President Biden.
Trump, who is the Republican Party's candidate for president, made his remarks at the end of a speech at a conservative Christian event.
@spocko @marklemley the transcript is a lie. Link above to the video.
It is clearly not "and I'm a Christian".
It is "My beautiful Christians. I'm not Christian" and he touches his chest with his right hand. The "and" and "a" sounds are not present. At exactly 21 seconds.
It is a gaff, and a lie if we don't acknowledge it happened. Other candidates have been sunk for less.
Can we all agree that he is appalling and the most AntiChrist like presidential candidate in history?
@Urban_Hermit @spocko @marklemley
Yes.
" ..., I'm not Christian, ..."
At 32 seconds below.
There is the possibility that Trump wants to be seen as Christ. And that's why he says he is not [a follower of Christ].
