Trump Proclaims 'God Is Very Proud' of His First Year Back in the White House

https://www.mediaite.com/media/news/trump-proclaims-god-is-very-proud-of-his-first-year-back-in-the-white-house/

This is blasphemy at it's finest...... Looks like he's best buddies with God... A person that does not even attend church.

So how does he really know God is proud? Did he come down from the heavens and talk to Humpty Dumpty?

“Looking back [after] one year, do you feel like God is proud of the effort that you’ve [given]?”
“I do, actually. I think God is very proud of the job I’ve done,” Trump said, while chuckling a bit.
What's the chuckle all about, eh?

He continued, “and that includes for religion. You know, we’re protecting a lot of people that are being killed. NOT even close. As a matter of real true facts, many have been killed BECAUSE of him.

Christians, Jewish people, and lots of people are being protected by me that wouldn’t be protected by another type of president.” What does he mean by another type of president? Perhaps a sane one? Really? Where's the proof for any of this bullshit?

As described in the bible, he probably is proud of all the destruction.

That bible god sure killed a lot of people.

Never believe that the bible god is pro life. He is actually very pro death. Almost everything alive today will be dead in about 100 years. How's that for pro life????

Meanwhile, Trump just cannot stop talking, even though he has little to say and the vocabulary of a 4th grader.

Never before have so many people called upon the Christian deity -- every day, as I read through the news, I holler out several times, "JEESUUUS CHRIST!!"

is “GO SLAP YOUR PASTOR" SUNDAY. Where ARE they??????????????
This is THEIR wheelhouse. Instead they’ve made themselves WHORES to get what they already had.
Religion was very well tolerated in the US until small “c” christians complained that they weren’t the be-all-and-end-all of religion and had to try (for the jillionth time) to DOMINATE our lives.
You DO know that’s what a “christian dominion" is, right? It is NOT Freedom. (Except to tote a Rifle and a Bible.)
I have no more wish to live in a “christian dominion” than an "islamic republic". Both are corrosive of my Human Rights and Freedom.
I Blame Religion.

First, God doesn't have base emotions like pride.
Second, How would Trump know if he did....unless he was talking about himself as if he was god.
