The Military Religious Freedom Foundation says it has been inundated with over 200 calls from members of the U.S. military regarding religious comments made by U.S. commanders about the war in Iran. One combat unit commander reportedly said that the war is “part of God’s divine plan” and that “President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth.” Last month, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth invited the controversial Christian nationalist pastor Doug Wilson to lead the Pentagon’s prayer service. Wilson has opposed Muslims holding public office and does not believe women should be allowed to vote.

    They don’t even believe in Supply Side Jesus at this point. They believe in White Supremacist Jesus.

    How long before they retcon the story that his name was actually Jesse and he had a mullet and was born in Kentucky? Maybe they could take the Mormon belief that Jesus skipped over to North America after he was resurrected and build on that. Trump Bible second edition?
