Co-opting a famous phrase from the 1980 John Belushi-Dan Aykroyd classic The Blues Brothers, Donald Trump posted a cryptic meme on Wednesday night declaring that he is on a mission from God which also features an alt-right symbol in the background.
Showing the president walking down a dark city street, the image includes the caption nothing can stop what is coming. While the meme itself could be interpreted as the presidents response to the U.S. Court of International Trade striking down the majority of his Liberation Day tariffs, it was the images inclusion of Pepe the Frog and the fact that it originated from a groyper account that has drawn the most attention.

And then there was the Blues Brothers-themed post, which piggybacks on an overarching MAGA theme that God has anointed the president to save the country, a belief among Christian conservatives that ramped up after last Julys assassination attempt and has only increased since Trumps election. In fact, the president himself has repeatedly suggested he was saved by Christ because he is the chosen one.
