For those who missed it: God and Savior Trump, reading a teleprompter, while laying his hands on a Bible.
Listen, thinking he is referring to himself as God.

Yup. Definitely thinks he's God himself. I'm sure this is enough audio to enable AI to construct a full version of this with Trump reading the entire Bible. And I'm sure Trump would be "honored" to sell it for only $50 as an audio book. The MAGA faithful would be lining up to purchase it.
PS - do we know what translation of the Bible this was? KJV? NKJV? NIV? RSV?

I wrote "PS - do we know what translation of the Bible this was? KJV? NKJV? NIV? RSV?"
It's from the KJV apparently.
Also from HCR:
Trump seems, though, to be courting the base that in 2021 attacked the U.S. Capitol to try to keep him in power. After offending his base first by posting an image of himself as Jesus Christ and then by insulting Pope Leo XIV, Trump is participating this week in an event called “America Reads the Bible.” Kaanita Iyer and Aleena Fayaz of CNN report that Trump is expected to read 2 Chronicles 7:11–22 from the Oval Office. The same verse was read by Cowboys for Trump founder Couy Griffin at the January 6, 2021, insurrection, and is associated with white evangelicals’ belief God sent Trump to heal America.
But of course!

Trump’s spiritual advisor says that saying no to him is like saying no to God
The president’s spiritual advisor, Florida-based televangelist scammer Paula White-Cain, said at a book-signing event this week that saying no to Donald Trump is the same thing as saying no to the Christian god.
While speaking during the event, White-Cain recounted how the president asked her to join his Evangelical advisory board before his 2016 inauguration, saying, “He’s got a strong persona, don’t get me wrong. Don’t start a fight with him.”
“Because one thing I said, ‘I’ll never do politics,'” she said. “But when it came down to it, it wasn’t about doing politics. It was about an assignment. To say no to President Trump would be saying no to God. And I won’t do that.”https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-s-sp...Steve

Ohhhh...the madness, the stupidity...
