1. What century and country is he living in?

[bmbmd]

2. This Christian

Won't.

[D_Master81]

4. Me either

I have never figured out how christians in this country have attached themselves so much to Trump. Guy who has had multiple marriages, settled fraud cases, said "grab em by the p***y". I truly believe all his prayer meetings he has is to solidify the base not so much out of a personal belief. Now Pence I would get all the love for him, but Trump, dont get it.

7. They have also attached themselves to white supremacy and Russia.

I'm sure Jesus would love this shit!

[gopiscrap]

26. me neither and for the record neither trump nor Baker is Christian

[defacto7]

3. Once a con man, always a con man.

5. Who does he think he is - Bane?

16. OK so kick and rec and get this on the front page. Someone will see it.

[handmade34]

8. not gonna happen

[Maraya1969]

21. I think it is more important that he said it and how it is an incitement toward treason

[jmowreader]

9. Well Jim, you better hope they don't

Because you would VERY quickly find out how many liberals and non-faux-Christians in this country own guns, and how little they think of you.

[dawg]

10. Not this Christian.

Some of us actually care about freedom and the rule of law.

[bitterross]

11. It wouldn't be out of character for Christians to support something so immoral

The last Civil war was all about slavery and being able to keep owning other humans and treat them like dumb animals. Very much supported by a huge swath of Christians and their clergy.

Nothing in their Bible prohibits slavery. Rather, it demands they take slaves as spoils of war.

[VOX]

29. Precisely. Confederate big-wigs USED Old Testament gleanings to back up...

their idea of, "Slavery is a God-given right." And that dark-skin people are on this earth to serve them, the more "superior" white people.

Of course, the reality was the wealthy plantation owners (who fancied themselves as privileged aristocrats) who also owned at least 20 slaves, were made exempt from conscription.

Once again, rich man's war, poor man's fight.

[leftstreet]

12. 'from the shadows?' Are you shitting me?

When have Christians in the US been 'in the shadows?'

[spanone]

13. and does the convicted felon think that that is Christian?

STFU jimmy

[Ilsa]

14. OMG. He thinks all Christians are in lockstep with him

and that creepy woman who said we are not to oppose trump because God put him there? He needs stronger anti-psychotic meds.

[ProudLib72]

15. Should have been life in prison

Nuff said!

[Jimbo101]

17. He's trying to pitch his "end of times" survival food

18. What he forgets is that other Christians are willing

to get together with other religions and non religions and fight against his so called Christianity and him and his will be very outnumbered. There is a downfall when you are not accepting of all others.

[ATL Ebony]

19. Careful how you throw around the word "Christians" buddy

The only rising up I'd do would be in "praise".

[Kleveland]

31. Amen..

Unfortunately, it seems that "Christians" in name only come in many flavors.

Some not very pleasant.

Peace on earth, and goodwill towards men seems to be a foreign concept to some of these offensive "flavors".

[haveahart]

20. Just tweeted this back:

"If he isn't impeached the rest of us will rise up. Guess who wins"

[Maraya1969]

23. Great tweet!

[VOX]

25. Bingo!

That's the spirit!

[Nonhlanhla]

22. Not this Christian. nt

[sinkingfeeling]

24. It would be over in a day or so.

[Binders Keepers]

27. Jessica Hahn and her big hair say hi.

[ck4829]

28. Oh great, that will make two civil wars they're not going to get over losing now

[Hieronymus]

30. There's nothing Christian about Trump ..

I think he is referring to Nazis.

[Kleveland]

32. Absolutely nothing Christian about that "man".

I would venture to say that he has broken every single commandment numerous times.... as a force of habit at his point.

The evil that he visits upon us, with be visited upon him.

[roamer65]

33. Keep it up, you fuckhead Bakker.

You will soon get the persecution you bitch about.
