Why do so many evangelical Christians support former President Donald Trump despite his decades of documented ungodly behavior?

An in-depth report from The Economist shows that it has a simple explanation: They believe that God personally appointed him to rule the United States.

In fact, the report cites a survey conducted by Denison University political scientist Paul Djupe that around 30 percent of Americans believe Trump “was anointed by God to become president.”

    In British slang, those t-shirts say “In God We Fart”.

      Outstanding.

      On the topic of British slang, do ya’ll still say spark up a fag to mean light a cigarette?

      I have a pet theory that the reason Ozzy pissed on the Alamo is that he finishes a show in Texas, is high on all the drugs, steps back stage, wanders off a bit and asks some local yokel Texans of the time if he can ‘bum a fag’, which they would interpret as the dark lord himself asking them to provide him with someone to sodomize.

      The Texan yokels them beat the crap out of him and he goes and pisses on the Alamo.

      Just my own little head canon haha.
