PoliticalwireTelevangelist Pat Robertson reported on The 700 Club that he had been told by God that President Trump will be reelected and his reelection will bring about start of the End Times.
Robertson said that without question, Trump is going to win the election, but it will result in widespread civil unrest, during which there will be at least two attempts to assassinate the president.

(14,856 posts)Yes, and so is everyone else.
Pat Robertson is 90 years old and apparently in excellent health for his age. He is incredibly wealthy. If anyone has been favored and blessed by God in this life, it's Pat Robertson.

(14,856 posts)His whole act is a carefully scripted performance, perfected over the decades, for the purpose of separating sincere Christians from their money. He is an expert at this. His followers might be considered demented, since they actually believe what he says, and they keep calling the number and giving their credit card numbers. Robertson knows exactly what he's doing.

(5,914 posts)Or some other such horseshit. The money will keep flowing.
There's a reason that the Bible suggests that false prophets should be literally stoned to death. They were tired of these assholes, too.

(6,448 posts)This happened in a small school east of Eau Claire, WI. There were about 40 kids in the senior class. The results of the Homecoming Court election were announced and one girl had edged out a very pregnant candidate.
The students got together after school and did their own tally. The "winner" had only received two votes, while the runner-up received most of the rest.
It seems the principal didn't want to have the embarrassment of a third trimester Homecoming Queen and ended up having the embarrassment of a different scandal involving him.
"It's rigged--the whole thing is rigged," said a rigged Trump. They'll have to work a lot harder this time.
