Jim Caviezel Calls Donald Trump 'The New Moses' And We Can't Let This Pass Over

On “Fox & Friends” Thursday, actor Jim Caviezel claimed with a straight face that former President Donald Trump is “the new Moses.”

The conservative “Passion of the Christ” star was promoting his new movie, “Sound of Freedom,” which dramatizes the exploits of anti-trafficking activist Tim Ballard. The film has made more than $100 million at the box office on a reported budget of $14.5 million.

As the interview with “F&F” host Brian Kilmeade neared the end, Caviezel said of the child trafficking issue: “We have to do a lot more. And we got to start with Donald Trump.”

Asked to elaborate, Caviezel replied: “Well, he’s got to be in there because he’s going to go after the traffickers.”

Kilmeade then asked the “Person of Interest” alum if he’d called this to Trump’s attention. Cavaziel said that he and producer Eduardo Verástegui screened the film for the twice-indicted Republican challenger in Bedminster, New Jersey, the previous night.

“This is the new Moses,” Caviezel said. “I mean, I’m still Jesus, but he’s the new Moses. Pharaoh, let my children go free.”

“I mean, I’m still Jesus, but he’s the new Moses."

Not just claiming to know the mind and plans of the 'Limitless-Ineffable', but claiming the Name and Mantle and power of proclamation.

So Jimmy what about those 1800 kids that never got returned to their families due to his policies at the border? God damn it like you want to have a good message but you completely take it apart with your qanon fuckery...fucking moron this is the reason why people are tearing this movie to pieces because of people like him and Tim Ballard pushing a agenda about adrenochrome harvesting conspiracy

He that talks about it the most, is often he covering up for his own vices. The guy gives off major creep ball signals. Trump the new Moses? For who, the thrice married three way enjoying let's marry someone my daughter's age sleezebags? Is that your promised land Jim boy?

he's long known to be a nut bag and alone got him the cold shoulder in hollywood. rightly so.

but now, he sees gigantic dollar signs and he's grabbing at it with both hands.

the "most popular" movie at the box office is a bullshit term. for two reasons: 1) crazy caviezel makes a pledge to the marginal thinkers in the audience, at the end of the movie, to by $75 bucks of tickets to give out to friends. 2) like rebukes do with their door stop books, they are buying up blocks of tickets to inflate the actual attendance numbers. several movie theaters have reported sold out shows with zero audiences actually attending.
