John Hagee: Vote For Trump Or Face The Wrath Of God

It’s funny how extreme right-wing Christians always think they know what their God is thinking about politics, especially since most of the candidates who say that God told them to run for president never even get the nomination, much less become president. Well, another such right-wing Christian has added his voice to this narrative: Pastor John Hagee. On the Tuesday edition of his show Hagee Hotline, the fiery preacher issued a dire warning: Vote for Donald Trump in November, or God will come for you. Hagee warned that “God will not hold us harmless,” and that voting is an imperative duty. He continued to rant:

“I’m going to vote for the candidate that’s going to make the U.S. military great again. I’m going to vote for the party that is going to solve the immigration problem, not the one that has created the immigration problem. I’m going to support the party that brings jobs back from China … I’m not going to vote for the party that has betrayed Israel for the past seven years.”

“If you can read a newspaper, you know who I’m talking about. No candidate is perfect, but I want you to go vote and may God give us a leader who has the courage to put America first and stand up for we the people.”

Now, I don’t know about you, but this sounds an awful lot like a preacher putting politics into religion to me. If Hagee’s ministry is tax exempt, he needs to lose that status if he can’t stop the politicking. Further, no higher power — if one were to actually exist — would want a dangerous, racist, sexist, xenophobic narcissist as the leader of the free world.

3. Conjunction confusion, John

I think you meant "and," not "or."

[Jackie Wilson Said]

4. Hagee deeply hates most of the world. Anyone who does not vote for the Democrat

in November will be assisting him in that hate.

15. that's funny, cuz you and Hagee have the exact same approach

and it's despicable no matter who uses it:

17. This is a liberal message board. Liberals tell the truth about people like Drumpf

i know it makes you uncomfortable.

5. Sound and Fury

Is anybody adept enough to estimate mentally the number of zeroes to the right of the decimal point before we get a valid numerator for the fraction of people who take Hagee seriously and would ever consider voting Dem in the first place?

6. This is the same preacher...

Who had his endorsement of John McCain rejected in 2008, after a video of him saying Hitler was "sent by God" to kill Jews.

7. Let's see . . . I choose "wrath of God." ROFL.

[Initech]

8. "Anyone who doesn't believe the same as I do is stupid!"

[maryellen99]

9. He's an end timer

He believes Trump is the best choice to start a nuclear war and bring about Armageddon,which is what the GOP wants.

10. He's a rightwing nutjob. Even rightwing nutjobs have free speech rights here.

The fact that he calls himself a pastor doesn't impose any limit what he can say: it only limits his ability to claim nonprofit status for his church facilities and resources, if he uses those facilities and resources for political purposes

[HughBeaumont]

12. "Pastor . . ." 95% of the time, nothing constructive, intelligent or worthwhile follows that word.

[LongTomH]

13. Well......see you in Hell!!!!

[TheSarcastinator]

14. How is this different than what's posted here on DU for Hillary?

Seems very alike to me:

16. Ah, but women who don't vote for Hillary are going to a special place in hell

So much hyperbole flying around
