12. Completely rational interpretation of their own fan fic.

The actual Bible is pretty thin on details of the Anti-christ, but everything they've said about the anti-christ was embodied by trump.

My objection to your concern here is that the people who didn't follow trump would not be considered Christians by his followers. I've said this before, but the trump followers own the brand. The Christians who don't agree with that interpretation didn't push back, choosing harmony within the overall community over protecting the perception of what a Christian is. I know that offends a lot of people, but I you grabbed pretty much anyone from a western society and asked them; Pat Robertson, Franklin Graham etc. are much more likely to be considered Christian than someone like Jimmy Carter or Joe Biden.
