A group of Donald Trump's supporters gathered outside a Nevada counting centre as votes were being tallied to pray for the president's re-election.

A video broadcast by ABC News showed several Trump supporters kneeling in prayer on the ground outside the Clark County Election Department as counting continued in the potentially pivotal state on Thursday.

It came with the president's Democratic challenger Joe Biden narrowly ahead in Nevada and just one or two state victories away securing enough electoral college votes to enter the White House.

Nevada where election results have been delayed, is the smallest state yet to yield clear results but could still be crucial in propelling Mr Biden to the presidency.

Groveling publicly before the Ancient of Days, the Almighty Gawd, and His Host Invisible on Trump's behalf.

1. Wonder if they lie in their prayers ?

Isn't that one of the ten commandments, thoi shalt not lie

[Maeve]

3. Actually, it's "thou shalt not bear false witness"--which would include accusing Dems of fraud

And most other RW conspiracy BS

[Hotler]

51. .....

[Archae]

2. They can pray all they want...

It's the nutcase violent Trumpies who are dangerous, days before election day, the head of the "3 percent" group openly advocated shooting democrats.

That crowd of Trumpies in Michigan should be busted for what they are doing too, trying to prevent counting ALL the votes.

[cheezmaka]

31. They were taken care of...

Chief Craig of Detroit PD in Wayne County "already" had his corps of officers down there. He KNEW this was going to happen and he "handled his business". Plus Trumpers know better than to start stuff anywhere where "Big Momma" is helping to count the vote. Because if the police didn't deal with them then the "homies" from the HOOD will!!!!

[Billytee]

4. Pray hard

Wondered if they prayed for:
children in cages
for the saftey of our troops with a bounty on their heads
and the thousands of americans who died of Covid due to Trump's incompetence

Can't list anymore...too pissed off about it

...and I see three people wearing masks. Stupidity AND Covid are at epidemic proportions.

[cheezmaka]

34. Nope

God will not allow anyone to "co-sign" Him to a ruthless agenda. Especially when it entails "eroding" our Democracy. In addition they're too busy praying for "Saul". And in the book of Kings even GOD Himself told Samuel in so many words to "STOP praying for him..." 1 Sam. 16:1

[Vogon_Glory]

5. Ironically enough, I've been praying, too

That the Almighty will grant us the compassion and mercy to allow us to remove the National Disgrace from the White House.

I like to believe that God is answering our prayers.

[cheezmaka]

32. I have too...

Many on Facebook were praying for restoration of democracy and integrity in the White House. I sincerely believe God is answering the prayers of the people...

[SergeStorms]

6. And if the vote goes against Trump...

they'll be taking that same god's name in vain. If their god says, "NO" they certainly won't accept their god's decision. I guess they think this is a proactive approach, but they may as well throw pennies in a wishing well as far as I'm concerned.

[cheezmaka]

35. Nailed it!!!

[lambchopp59]

7. Scews me... scews me kneeling lemmings... but...

[oswaldactedalone]

8. That kind of nonsense

is why I’ll have nothing to do with religion. Idiocy.

[UrbanProspector]

16. This...

My thoughts exactly!

[NurseJackie]

9. They look like a cult.

Pathetic.

[durablend]

12. Nono can't be a cult

Because.....something.....

[NurseJackie]

13. Because...

... we don't want to be disrespectful of cults?

[Lock him up.]

18. They look like an American version of the Taliban

Maybe we should call them Chrisliban?

[gab13by13]

19. Talibangelicals

[Lock him up.]

20. Nah. There's the word 'angel' in it. They're evil. n/t

[keithbvadu2]

38. Lucifer was/is an angel.

Lucifer was/is an angel.

[Brainfodder]

10. Separation anxiety?

...church and state...

Praying for an election to go THEIR way, that is brainwashed HC deluxe edition.

They will all need mental health services, but too stupid to know better, so probably fuct.

[bucolic_frolic]

11. God listens to MAGAzis???

Tell me another one.

[keithbvadu2]

39. Same God - both sides... Gott mit uns

[bucolic_frolic]

48. LOL, sparked a deep guffaw! Thanks /nt

[BigOleDummy]

52. Yay!

Yep, been comparing them to that saying for awhile.

[backroadblast]

14. would they stand up?

if the national anthem started playing.........

[Maggiemayhem]

15. Pharisees

[cheezmaka]

36. and Sadducees

[rpannier]

17. Better praying, than preying

[lonely bird]

22. Unfortunately, they do both

[nuxvomica]

21. "And the people bowed and prayed / to the neon god they made"

Simon's got a lyric for everything.

[apnu]

23. That's taking a knee.

Just sayin'

[gab13by13]

24. Thoughts and prayers

going out to the prayers.

[machoneman]

25. Prayin' to the golden calf? The golden Trumpian idol? Cast them out with fire and brimstone, I say!

[VWolf]

27. This damn racists better pray they aren't struck by a lighting bolt.

The Republican Party's only hope is their racist messaged and support for ownership of deadly military combat guns. Let me make it very clear that I believe that only a very small number of people who would own these weapons would ever use them to kill people. However, I would like them to consider that it is a fact that these weapons in the hands of only a few people have been the source of horrible killing such as the children in Sandy Hook. It is for this reason that I will gladly support the strict control of these weapons identical to the regulations concerning ownership of machine guns. Ownership of machine guns, such as Tommy guns, that were the weapons of choice of gangsters during the prohibition era or any device that would enable the modification of guns to automatic fire capability.

[JohnnyRingo]

47. Hit by a lightening bolt?

I wouldn't wish it on them, but wouldn't that put a damper on the Republican Party? Religious conservatives would switch parties in a second. Franklin Graham would have to call for Trump to be stoned.

[jb5150]

28. God doesn't listen to people who thought it was ok to put kids in cages ...

Talk to the fucking hand ...

[niyad]

29. If praying actually worked in NV, there would not be so many broke gamblers. Just saying. . .

[krispos42]

30. Nothing fails like prayer!

[Marthe48]

33. I have prayed too

Without lies and sincerely.

[cheezmaka]

37. They need to pray for the over 220,000 families that lost love ones to COVID

and that Trump become a "real Christian" by accepting Christ so he won't die and go to Hell...

[keithbvadu2]

40. Religion and politics use each other to gain power and wealth.

[Rob_70]

41. So if God doesn't answer

Then what? Are they going to turn violent because he said no? Just wondering. 🤔

[rocktivity]

42. If Nate Silver is right about this, they're taking the Lord's name in vain

I suspect that NV deliberately saved counting the bluest ballots for last. And while you're at it, multiply that strategy by WI, AZ and PA.

43. Praying to the God they made

[Progressive dog]

44. They can pray as long as they don't claim

that their god has answered them. Most of them confuse the orange demon with god.

[JohnnyRingo]

45. I think someone's setting themselves up to be smited.

They're taking a knee in protest because God is unfair to them. I mean, if their God wanted Trump to win, it would have already happened in a landslide. It's not like He waits by his prayer phone to made aware of a situation that needs attention. He already knew and He doesn't like Trump.

Those Trumpies don't have a prayer.

[Gore1FL]

46. And prayers worked as well as they always do. nt

[Roisin Ni Fiachra]

49. Asking God to help them re-elect Satan

probably won't work out so well for them.

[Crowman2009]

50. Yeah, it's the end-times all right!

As in the end of their time in power ruling over us.

[BigOleDummy]

53. What a "god" they must pray to.....

.... I mean.... what kind of people pray for hate? For murder? For civil unrest? I mean... are THESE supposed to be "christian ideals"?

As a atheist I have more morals than these people.

[Ford_Prefect]

54. Are all those "thoughts and prayers" coming home to roost? Oh My!

[reACTIONary]

55. And god answered...
