Mark Taylor: Trump Will Go Down As The Most Praying President In American History

Self-proclaimed “firefighter prophet” and right-wing conspiracy theorist Mark Taylor appeared on TheDove TV’s “Focus Today” program yesterday, where he declared that President Trump is such a devout Christian that he wants to go down in history as America’s “most praying president.”

Taylor told host Perry Atkinson that Mary Colbert, with whom he authored his book “The Trump Prophecies,” is a part of Trump’s evangelical advisory board and that Trump recently told this group that “when he leaves office, he wants his legacy to be that he wants to be known as the most praying president in American history.”

Echoing Colbert again, Taylor went on to assert that Trump’s name-calling and personal attacks on his critics are no different than what Jesus did.

“I’ve seen evangelicals attack this man over how he attacks people or how he speaks to people or he’ll call people names,” Taylor said. “Well, read your Bible folks, the Lord Jesus himself called people names.”

Dear God

You're doing a great job. You're the best. Thank you so much for all the things you do for us, which is really great, really great, not like the stuff the devil is doing, he's one bad hombre, but you're doing really good stuff.

Amen

not to have his taxes leaked? Or not to lose his lavish lifestyle once his elaborate ponzi and criminal laundering scheme is exposed and dismantled? I can see how looming jail time, pending embarrassment and humiliation would convert him into a praying person. In my best thump accent, "What the hell" does he "have to lose?"
