Trump Goes On Bizarre Rant About Christian Persecution That Isn’t Happening

During a low energy campaign event this week where Donald Trump couldn’t even bother to stand up, he falsely told the crowd that there is a tremendous amount of persecution happening in our country against Christians, and he went even further and said that Catholics are getting the worst of it. He was unable to provide a single example of anything that he was alleging, most likely because it isn’t happening anywhere in this country. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

At a very low energy campaign event this week where an exhausted Donald Trump couldn't even be bothered to stand up to talk to people. He decided to go on a very weird rant, we will call it, about how Christians across the United States, particularly Catholics, are being persecuted by what he calls dumb people here in the United States. So here is Donald Trump explaining that persecution is taking place by dumb people, but of course, as usual, never giving us an actual example of what persecution looks like. Here he is,

We're praying that the Lord will deliver you back in the White House very soon. Amen.

Thank

You. Uh, just recently a study came out from Arizona Christian University, uh, showing that 32 million Christian Americans will not be going to the polls to vote this year. If you could share a final message to those Christians, uh, to encourage them to go to the polls, what would your message be?

Well, you know, it's interesting, Matthew, that, uh, if you look over the last 30 years or so, for whatever reason, Christians are not tremendous voters in terms of percentage. If they were, would never lose an election, we wouldn't have had these people in office and we would never lose an election. And I think they're, I think they are, I think we've really energized a lot of people this time because they've seen how bad it is. This last four years has been, it's been a horror show, an absolutely horror show. And I think, I think we're gonna see those numbers go way up. I'm, I'm almost sure of it, and I'm even hearing that from statistically because you see what's coming in, and by the way, record numbers of votes are coming in, so that's supposed to be a good thing for us. And we have to make sure, uh, too big to rig.

We wanna make it too big to rig, right? Mm-Hmm. But, but if they did, if they did, uh, we would literally never lose an election. And, you know, there's persecution going on and, uh, especially, I don't know if you've heard with Catholics, I don't know what's going on with Catholics. Why are they after Catholics? But the Catholics are being persecuted, school boards are being persecuted parents, uh, this group is not a nice group of people. You know, you think they're stupid and they are really pretty dumb. But you, when you look at what the policies, what they've done to this country, but they're vicious people. They're vicious, vicious people. And, uh, people are being persecuted people of religion. And you saw it a little bit during Covid where you'd have a service outside. Everybody's five yards away and everything, and they're coming and arresting people.

Uh, it's, it's very bad. But I think you're gonna see a big change. I think you're gonna see it now and hopefully we're gonna keep it going. You know, without religion. It's like the, it's like, it's like the glue that holds it all together. This would be a different country. The, the religion and all of it. Virtually all of them are going, if you look at a path wasn't helped by covid by the way, when you had Covid, all of a sudden, uh, people started thinking a little bit differently and they, you know, got used to a different way of life for a long period of time. And maybe it didn't quite come back, but it's going this way. If we ever had it going up, it would, and I think we're gonna get it up. I really believe it. I think this election is important for even that reason for everything. It's so important. But it's such a good question, you know,

So he did provide, obviously the one example there, right? During Covid, oh, you can't have people in the churches. You gotta stop that. 'cause everybody could get sick and die. I, but most churches were actually still allowed to hold services. They made the choices not to.

The convicted felon who bribed an adult movie actress cries for Christianity. Comedy gold.

[chrish]

A Catholic here. I convinced my 80 year old mother, a devout Catholic, and her Trump loving boyfriend to vote blue. It took a few years of work but it's possible.

He’s the dumbest person that I ever seen

[catherinegleason]

As a practicing Catholic, the only person I'm afraid of persecuting me is Don-old Trump.

[deevnn]

Any church who would have trump as a speaker is certainly not a "christian" church...tax ALL churches that preach
politics from the pulpit.

[johnbhoy]

Our ears are being persecuted by this buffoon.

[ritaw]

He’s NOT a Christian, why would you have him there?

[VidarLund-kq]

The only Catholic I know of having been persecuted is president Biden being persecuted by Trump.

[walpoleandworcester]

Chump makes up the dumbest sob stories of all time!

[sandraannaklondikelee]

[dragon-shepherd]

How anyone that calls themselves a Christian can follow or support a person whose ENTIRE life has been immersed in the Seven Deadly Sins, and who has turned the Ten Commandments into a To-Do List, is beyond me. The required levels of Hypocrisy are unbelievable.

[AlejandroRamirez-itmx]

The only horror show that we have in the united states is you Donald Trump

[janinestearns]

Lifelong Lutheran here. In 66 years I have NEVER been persecuted for being Christian!

[RonHammers]

These people have no clue what actual persecution looks like.

[susantharaldson]

He's bitching about how Covid was handled when it was on him. FFS!

[stevecudd]

Biden is Catholic, let's ask him.
