Donald Trump claimed that if he took his shirt he would have more "wounds" than any other president in the history of the U.S.

      Well I’m no expert on Christianity, but apparently this theology graduate here agrees with you:

        In particular, Jesus showing off his wounds was the big evidence it was him and he had come back from the dead. He isn’t just being weird in front of religious people. He is selling himself as the new messiah.

    I honestly think if he took his shirt off it would cost him the election.

    Seeing the flabby, 78-year-old American physique in all its glory would be both a literal and figurative “emperor has no clothes” moment for many of his cultists.

    We need to bait him into rallying in a liberal city. We could all show up and pretend to take him seriously and just wait for him to say something insane like this.

    Then we could just yes-man him into doing embarrassing stuff. Hell yeah Mr. President, show us your beautiful wounded body. Take that shirt off. Do us a little dance. Jump up and down or something. C’mon, do a little fat man dance.

      “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” Hebrews 11:1

      It’s basically a cognitive dissonance conference.

      They’ll believe whatever suits them to prop up their delusional world view. And they’ll refuse to acknowledge any facts that contradict it.
