Jim Bakker throws a tantrum about being told to knock it off...

Selling his "silver solution" as a cure-all for corona, AIDS, etc.

Jim Bakker Decries ‘Warfare’ That Has Forced Him to Stop Selling His Silver Solution
By Kyle Mantyla | March 24, 2020 1:44 pm

Earlier this month, End Times pastor Jim Bakker was ordered by various state and federal agencies to stop suggesting that a silver solution sold by his network could be used as a possible cure for the COVID-19 coronavirus after Right Wing Watch posted a clip in February from “The Jim Bakker Show” in which he and his guests made precisely that claim.

Bakker addressed the controversy on Tuesday’s episode of his program by insisting that the claims made on his program were not misleading and complaining that the attacks against him were demonic warfare, while petulantly announcing that he was suspending the sale of his silver solution because of them.

people w/ his snake oil.

Some people would believe that if people believe in what bakker sells (and his claims), that they deserve what they get. In any event, I suspect that they still try to buy/get if they are that gullible. Doesn't matter what anyone says.

There are already people dying from rump's claim of the so called miracle drug (a guy and his wife took it, guy died, wife sick).
