and therefore was capable of introspection and redemption. TFG and his acolyte, Abbott, not so much. If the Antichrist were real, those assholes would be candidates, or at least antichrists, since they are the exact opposite of this:
'For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’ (Matthew 25)
Jesus' basic statement of altruism and compassion is accepted by decent people of all cultures, religions, philosophies and beliefs, Christian or otherwise, and TFG and the likes of Abbott and DeSantis embody the opposite. People who are poor, hungry, unclothed, sick, imprisoned, or otherwise suffering or powerless are losers whom they denigrate, mock and punish. Some people think they'll go to Hell for it; I think they've made their own Hells.
