We learn in med school that if someone comes to the emergency room calling themselves the King of Israel and the second coming of God, that patient is either high on drugs or is having a psychotic break and needs to be promptly evaluated with a tox screen and psychiatric consult.

In reference to Trump's tweet this morning in which he quotes an evangelical referring to him (Trump) as the King of Israel and the second coming of God, among other lofty phrases.
