Donald Trump is more than a bad president; he is a very bad man (to use Trump’s lingo). America has had several presidents with loose morals, but we’ve never had one (well, except for perhaps Abraham Lincoln and Lyndon Johnson) who had NO morals.
It’s really difficult to realize, much less articulate, just how much toxic damage Trump has wrought in the hearts and minds of the people on the political and religious right. Of course, they themselves are unable to recognize it, but devotion and loyalty to Trump have cost them their moral conscience, their mental capacity to reason and, yes, the forfeiture of their humanity. The unconscionable conduct, egregious crimes and attacks on civility committed by Trump on a daily (even hourly) basis that conservatives are willing to excuse and even laud stagger the imagination.
This is especially true for people calling themselves Christians.
Donald Trump has made a mockery of the office of president. He treats the Oval Office like a lavatory. His brain registers zero respect or reverence for the office. He degrades and humiliates the office day in and day out. There has never been a man in the White House who publicly profanes the name of God and insults the conscience of America’s polite society with more vulgarity and profanity than Donald J. Trump (and those around him).
If a Democrat president behaved this way, Christians would howl their displeasure. But when Trump does it, they sit passive and compliant—even turn around and try to tell us how great Christians the Trumps are. To hear them talk, Abraham, Moses, Peter and Paul are carnal degenerates compared to the spirituality of the Trumps.
Evangelicals point to the two attempted assassinations on Donald Trump as proof that Trump has some sort of divine anointing. They have forgotten that Adolf Hitler had at least forty assassination attempts on his life.
When Trump survived the assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, Trump said that God saved his life. Yes, indeed. God did just that. God has saved the life of each person reading this column—probably more than once. Every breath, every heartbeat is a gift of God.
But now, in typical emperor-speak, the Trumps have changed “God saved Trump” to “Trump saved God.”
Eric Trump on Tuesday claimed that President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement are “saving God” during an interview with conservative political commentator Benny Johnson.
“We’re saving Christianity. We’re saving God,” he told Johnson. “We’re saving the family unit. We’re saving this nation.”

Where are you, Pastor Robert Jeffress? Where are you, Rev. Franklin Graham?
Eric Trump just boldly, brazenly and matter-of-factly publicly blasphemed Almighty God in a way never heard before by a member of an American first family, and evangelical preachers sit mute and dumb.
Can one imagine the outcry had Joe Biden’s son Hunter publicly said such a thing? I guess blasphemy is only a sin if Democrats commit it.
But it is Trump’s slavish pandering to Israel that really stinks to the heavens. Disgusting and nauseating do not begin to describe Trump’s sheer, supine subjection to the Jewish billionaire class.
In his speech before the Israeli Knesset, Donald Trump made a fool out of the people of the United States. He crawled before Benjamin Netanyahu and Miriam Adelson like a whipped little puppy dog. It was humiliating! It was horrible!
“I’m gonna get her {Miriam Adelson, Zionist billionaire and Mossad asset} in trouble with this one, but I actually asked her once, ‘So, Miriam, I know you love Israel. What do you love more? Israel. The United States or Israel?’ She refused to answer. That might mean Israel,” the president said.
Miriam’s late husband, Sheldon Adelson, was also a major contributor to Trump’s previous presidential campaigns, and Trump credited the couple for pro-Israel moves he made in his first administration, including recognizing the Israeli annexation of the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.
“Miriam and Sheldon would come into the office, they’d call me. I think they had more trips to the White House than anybody else I could think of. Look at her sitting there so innocently, she got $60 billion in the bank ... and she loves Israel,” Trump said in his Knesset address, which Miriam attended.
“Her husband was a very aggressive man, but I loved him, very supportive of me. And he’d call up, ‘Can I come over and see you?’ I say, ‘Sheldon, I’m the president of the United States, it doesn’t work that way.’ He’d come in and do good, though. But they were very responsible for so much, including getting me thinking about Golan Heights,” Trump added.
Lest anyone forget, Trump in 2024 openly ran on handing our country over to Miriam Adelson and the Israel Lobby.
"You're going to end up winning because you're going to have the president, okay?" he told Adelson at an event for wealthy Jewish donors in August 2024.

As I said in my message last Sunday entitled It Is Christian Zionists Who Will Be Left Behind:
If you saw Trump’s speech before the Israeli Knesset last week, you saw what a pandering, sycophantic lackey for Israel Donald Trump really is.
He confessed to the world that he is owned by Miriam Adelson, the Mossad and Netanyahu.
He confessed to the world that the Adelsons bribed him in his first term to move the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
He confessed to the world that the Adelsons bribed him to “give” the Golan Heights to Israel.
He confessed to the world that Sheldon Adelson had unfettered access to the Oval Office.
He confessed to the world that his largest financial benefactor, Miriam Adelson, is more loyal to Israel than she is to the United States.
He confessed to the world that Netanyahu is guilty of accepting bribes.
And he further confessed to the world that he, Donald Trump, regards bribery as “no big deal,” because, of course, HE has been bribed by Israel all of his life.
I was pleasantly surprised to hear USMC Major and former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter say in an interview that even with the hundreds of millions of dollars that the Israel lobby has at its disposal with which to bribe America’s politicians, it would not be enough to succeed the way it does without the popular support of America’s evangelical Christian Zionists.
Hooray, Scott! I’ve been saying that for years.
Christian Zionism is the glue that holds the global Zionist Ponzi scheme together. And the one man that is most responsible for this gigantic global deception is Cyrus Scofield, author of the pro-Zionist notes in the Scofield Reference Bible.
I encourage everyone to read the single most exhaustive and thoroughly researched biography of C. I. Scofield entitled The Incredible Scofield and His Book by Joseph Canfield.
I’m proud to say that we are a distributor of this blockbuster book that unveils the truth about the real C. I. Scofield. Scofield was to religion what P. T. Barnum was to entertainment.
A Zionist-owned American presidency and U.S. Congress could have never happened without Scofield. The deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent lives in Palestine by the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Zionist Israel could have never happened without Scofield.
The genocide in Gaza, Israel-pandering politicians and blind, indifferent “Christians” are the legacy of C. I. Scofield. Read the book, and you will understand.
Now, on the home front, what is Trump doing? He’s declaring political war on the two best friends that conservatives and constitutionalists have in Congress: Congressman Thomas Massie and Senator Rand Paul.
This subject was recently discussed on Ron Paul’s Liberty Report podcast with Ron and co-host Daniel McAdams.
McAdams: This, honestly, Dr. Paul, this is not even a junior high-level rant on the part of President Trump. And it's honestly hard to read this and believe (and I had to double check it) to believe that this person who wrote this is the president of the United States of America. Now, I'll read it for you because it happens to be important, I think. He said,
Donald Trump Truth Social Channel: Whatever happened to “Senator” Rand Paul? He was never great, but he went really BAD! I got him elected TWICE (in the great state of Kentucky!), but he just never votes positively for the Republican Party. He's a nasty liddle’ guy [misspelled], much like “Congressman” Thomas Massie, aka Rand Paul Jr., also of Kentucky (which I won three times in massive landslides!), a sick Wacko, who refuses to vote for our great Republican Party, MAGA, or America First. It's really weird!!!
There are a lot of things wrong with this, the first of which being that it's absolutely untrue in every way. He did not get Senator Paul elected twice. In 2010, he had nothing to do with the first senatorial, as you know very well, Dr. Paul, because you are actually the one involved. You were the one involved. In 2010, he did nothing. You were involved in that. So, Trump had nothing to do with that. And in 2016, Trump was running for president. They were running against each other for president. Trump certainly didn't help him then. So, an absolute bold-faced lie. Maybe he's forgotten that he had nothing to do with Senator Paul's election.
And, by the way, it should be pointed out through all of these constant attacks on Senator Paul and Massie, but certainly Senator Paul: When the chips were down, and President Trump was facing this Russiagate claims, a pack of lies, there was one person who steadfastly stood by President Trump, and that is Senator Rand Paul. And we remember this. He defended him against these charges that he's simply Putin's puppet. And he not only defended them, but Senator Paul defended President Trump even to the detriment of Senator Paul's own reputation, because they said, “Oh, you must be Putin's puppet too.” So, he basically took the body blows for President Trump when the chips were down. And this is how President Trump repays people. I think it's disgusting.
The thing about the attack on Senator Paul and Congressman Massie is that there's a punchline to this horrible, horrible, off-color joke. And that is, right when President Trump is attacking these two gentlemen, what does he decide to do? Well, he decides to have his first fundraiser for another candidate of the election cycle. And who does he support? So, “Rand and Massie are RINOs; they're not real Republicans.”
Go to that Politico article. There we go. He's going to go on stage for Lindsey Graham.
Politico Article: Trump's first in-person fundraiser of the 2026 cycle will be for Lindsey Graham
His first in-person appearance of the 2026 midterm campaign cycle at a fundraiser next month to support the reelection bid of Sen. Lindsey Graham.
Trump, who has largely eschewed domestic travel this year, is scheduled to join the South Carolina Republican for a golf tournament in November, according to a person familiar with this.
So, Senator Paul, Congressman Massie are anathema, but Lindsey Graham is the one who he believes is the America first, MAGA. It's unbelievable.
McAdams continues:
Well, as bad as it is attacking these two fine gentlemen and going to bat for Lindsey Graham, hold your breath, Dr. Paul, it gets even worse.
Now, you mentioned Trump was desperately trying to find a Republican to run against Massie in the primaries. He even got a bunch of out-of-state money, a couple million bucks, out-of-state money to put someone up against Massie, but they couldn't find anyone. Well, it looks like he's desperately trying to find one.
Tyler Durden Article: “Is This MAGA? Trump Wants Lindsey Graham Donor To Challenge ‘RINO’ Massie"
The guy's name is Ed Gallrein, and Trump is desperately trying to get him to run against Massie. Go to the next clip.
Here's what Trump wrote on Friday night.
Same Tyler Durden Article: Third Rate Congressman Thomas Massie, a Weak and Pathetic RINO from the Great Commonwealth of Kentucky, a place I love, and won big SIX TIMES [only six?], must be thrown out of office ASAP!
I hope Ed gets into the race against Massie. Unlike ‘lightweight’ Massie, a totally ineffective loser who has failed so badly, CAPTAIN ED GALLREIGN IS A WINNER WHO WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN. Should he decide to challenge Massie, Captain Ed Gallrein has my complete and total endorsement. RUN, ED, RUN.
I mean, Dr. Paul, reading this, does that look like it's written by the president of the United States of America? It's so weird.
It’s more than weird, Daniel; it’s evil.
Lindsey Graham is the biggest Neocon warmonger in the U.S. Congress. The blood of innocents drips from his hands and oozes from the pores of his skin.
You professing peace lovers in the GOP take note: Donald Trump is doing everything he can to re-elect your biggest enemy in Congress and to defeat your best friends in Congress. And you still give Donald Trump unyielding, total support.
What is wrong with you? You’ve allowed Trump to sully your soul. That’s what’s wrong with you.
Trump is more than a bad president; he is a very bad man. And people who blindly follow him are falling into the ditch of disaster into which he is leading them.
