Pat Robertson Says God Told Him Trump Would Be Reelected--and That It Would Bring About the End Times

[edbermac]

“The next thing is the election that's coming up in just a few weeks, at which time—according to what I believe the lord told me—the President is going to be reelected. I'm saying by all means, get out and vote. Vote for whoever you want to vote for, but by all means, let your voice be heard, but it's going to lead to civil unrest of great proportions, then the lord gets to Israel and so forth and so on."

1. So if this doesn't happen Pat will admit he has no direct line with the creator and retire

[Eliot Rosewater]

2. He can't win, he didn't win the last time and he won't win this time

But Putin and McConnell and the Republican party can steal it for him, again.

[Blue Owl]

3. For me, Pat Robertson is enough proof that there is no god

n/t

[malaise]

34. Pat's end time is overdue

He's the definition of a useless, vapid snake oil salesman

[relayerbob]

4. Well, he is the Anti-christ after all

[Buckeyeblue]

5. JFC. Pat Robertson is 90 years old. They still haul him out for the 700 Club.

Remember when he ran for president? Lordy!

[gratuitous]

6. Some quaint old words Pat might want to consider

Amos 5:

Verse 12b: There are those who oppress the innocent and take bribes
and deprive the poor of justice in the courts.

Picking up at verse 18: Woe to you who long
for the day of the Lord!
Why do you long for the day of the Lord?
That day will be darkness, not light.

19 It will be as though a man fled from a lion
only to meet a bear,
as though he entered his house
and rested his hand on the wall
only to have a snake bite him.

20 Will not the day of the Lord be darkness, not light—
pitch-dark, without a ray of brightness?

21 “I hate, I despise your religious festivals;
your assemblies are a stench to me.

Didja get that, Pat? "Your assemblies are a stench to me," because you oppress the innocent and deprive the poor of justice.

7. There is going to be a smiting that's for sure.

[CatMor]

8. Does God contact him by texting or phone call.

[Politicub]

11. That was my thought: How does one get a message from god?

[louis-t]

16. Usually, through the toaster.

[Chellee]

20. Facts.

I've seen pictures of Jesus on toast.

If this is the way he's communicating, the message seems to be, "You need to buy a new toaster. This one's toasting incredibly unevenly."

[Politicub]

32. I shall commune with my toaster this morning, then.

I will report back after I get (and then eat with butter) a toasty message from the divine.

[bullimiami]

9. so vote for trump because you think he is the antichrist. damn they are royally fucked up.

[Duncan Grant]

10. I refuse to accommodate men like this any longer.

Isn’t it odd that god only tells these guys exactly what they want to hear?

That’s not god talking to you, Pat — it’s the mirror. You big f**kin’ dumbass.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

12. Uh huh. When you talk to God, it's prayer; but when God talks to you,

it's psychosis.

[The Genealogist]

13. I can't believe people still listen to the swill this grifter spews

All he cares about is money flowing into his pocket.

[Xolodno]

14. So....he just confirmed....

...that Trump is the Anti Christ.

[LuvNewcastle]

22. That's what it sounds like to me.

And for once, I'm inclined to agree with him.

[42bambi]

15. Wow ... I didn't know that God lied.

[SharonAnn]

17. Won't they all be raptured then?

[lunasun]

18. "then the lord gets to Israel and so forth and so on." ? They actually want this destruction

[Behind the Aegis]

26. Yes, the extremists have always wanted the destruction of Israel.

His type of extremism is based in myth and fantasy, but their "love" of Israel has always been selfish and motivated by the destruction of Israel and the Jews. The other extremists wish to destroy Israel with more real world means, but they all want a world without Israel, and if possible, without Jews.

[eShirl]

19. God keeps trolling Pat

[dflprincess]

21. Interesting.

I seem to recall Jesus said only God knows when the end might come. And I'm pretty sure if God didn't let Jesus know, he probably wouldn't confide in Pat Robertson (knowing he'd blab it all over the place).

[phylny]

23. You win the Internet tonight!

[JHB]

24. I seem to recall (because I wrote it down back in 1991)...

...that he said the same thing about GHW Bush.

So we don't need to be "pretty sure" about anything. He has definitively proven that he is full of crap.

[oasis]

25. "But, on the advice of my attorneys, I'll keep hold of my millions".

"Just in case"

[Behind the Aegis]

27. Ruth is gone, but this foul creature still trolls the earth?!

WHY?!

[pecosbob]

28. If Trump does win it will seem like the end times...

like Germany after the Enabling Act (Law to Remedy the Distress of People and Reich) which gave Hitler the power to rule as dictator.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

29. He's probably thrilled by the "end times" prospect.

That superstitious idiot might have launched nuclear missiles to help end civilization, if he'd ever been elected President years ago.

I hope the only end times for him is his own death soon.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

30. Most European countries would never elect Trump.

There was a fairly recent poll of various European countries posted on DU, and I noted that France gave Trump the most support (still a minority) among all of them. Seemed strange to me at the time, but not so much after reading this...

https://www.voanews.com/archive/evangelical-churches-flourishing-europe

France has witnessed an eight-fold increase in Evangelical Christians during the past half century, from roughly 50,000 to 400,000. Those numbers are small in absolute terms. Evangelicals represent less than two-percent of the European population.

31. Oh yeah? That's not what God told me

God told me Pat Robertson was batshit crazy, and that the two hadn’t spoken except for once in a supermarket when Robertson pushed ahead of him in the checkout line.

[Initech]

33. Uh... Pat? We're already in the end times!

At least it certainly feels that way!

[Le Roi de Pot]

35. Strange!!!!!..God told me that Trump is going to get fucked in the ass

Which is it?

[Baitball Blogger]

36. How about a prediction that Biden will win and it will bring about an end of times for

all this fake Christianity that has invaded our political world?

[MineralMan]

37. Hearing Voices Again, Pat?

There are medications for that.
