I've been warning about screwball rich man's Calvinism sold to unthinking masses for decades. Everything about it is toxic and deadly.

It's just really hard not to laugh out loud that their earthly savior is TFG. Maybe we should. Most of us could use a good laugh and one at their expense is singularly appropriate. Then we can start warning them about false prophets and how to know them.

Their jackhole preachers told them a billionaire (TFG lied about that) would lead them into paradise on earth. Because it's perverted Calvinish, they will duly and slavishly support and adore any rich guy who grabs that office. They know he was chosen by god because he's rich. That's all it takes for them, MONEY.
