Jim Bakker: Special forces soldiers who died in War on Terror are now angels protecting Trump

[Miles Archer]

Donald Trump praying with a group of ministers.

Televangelist Jim Bakker says Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is being protected by a special team of angels.

“God came to me in a dream and told me that Donald Trump, his anointed one, is being guarded by a team of special forces angels,” said Bakker on his TV show. “These are former special forces soldiers who died in the War on Terror. They will protect Trump from every form of satanic attack.”

1. Bakker's endorsement of Trump seems totally apropos.

[BootinUp]

2. How is Bakker these days? Guess he wants to hitch his trailer to Trump. nt

[MANative]

3. How many levels of delusional can I count, here?

[Mc Mike]

4. & Colonel Klink's ghost is safeguarding his conscience.

6. Helluva job they did protecting him from bankruptcy and lawsuits

7. Sick mfs

[rurallib]

8. Trump endorsed by imaginary beings; Clinton endorsed by most real, living beings

Maybe those imaginary beings will make an ad for their anointed one.

9. That's the same bastard I saw in an orange jumpsuit and shackles

On trial for fraud and so on.

10. Somebody who is familiar with fundamentalist Christianity. . . .

Can you please explain WTF they are doing with their hands waving in the air? What is that SUPPOSED to accomplish? EVERY time I see fundies on television, that's what they're doing. It looks like they're trying to flag down somebody, or maybe they're trying to take flight?
Anybody?

One other burning question. . . . Who in the F-U-C-* listens to what that scam artist, Jim Bakker, has to say?

[SwankyXomb]

22. Misdirection

While you're focusing on their hands, their foul words slip right past the filters and into your brain

[BigDemVoter]

29. Yikes.

I don't want ANYTHING from them slipping into any part of me!

[liberalmuse]

11. I guess with Trump the masses might buy some more of his slop.

32. "Wayne's World" with a fundie twist. nt

[Journeyman]

12. I suspect Trump questions the competency of soldiers who died . . .

His appreciation for all things military seems gleamed from the movies. Of the dead, the words of George C. Scott as Patton probably infuse his belief:

"I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor, dumb bastard die for his country."

For myself, I find little more disgusting than those who attribute beliefs or motives, or worse put words in the mouths of the dead, especially those who died in battle.

For those unfamiliar with Jim Bakker, his fall from prominence began with the revelation he paid hush money from church funds to a woman he raped. Jerry Falwell, no stranger to disgusting assessments, called Bakker a liar, an embezzler, a sexual deviant, and "the greatest scab and cancer on the face of Christianity in 2,000 years of church history."

19. It's weird when I agree with Jerry Falwell (n/t)

[lastlib]

26. I would agree with him except that....

he himself holds the title.... Just MHO.

[Blue Idaho]

13. Televangelist and Sideshow Barker...

A perfect match.

[sarcasmo]

14. Batshit meet Batshit.

[tonyt53]

15. Well Jimmy boy, the Special Forces troops that died in Vietnam are watching over Hillary.

They are waiting for Trump to come and try take their Purple Hearts. They will protect Hillary from every form of lying jackass attack.

[CJohnson_LS]

16. That guy is nuttier than a Dundee fruitcake

And it's nice to see the Religious Right pricks like this guy taking advantage of our precious dead soldiers. How repulsive. They used to be living, breathing human beings, you know.

[Skidmore]

17. Didn't learn a thing from prison...nt

[Separation]

18. Using Trump's logic

Those special forces guys who died in battle probably weren't very special. I mean he already said that he doesn't believe that anyone caught and placed as a POW wasn't a hero.

This guy is sick!

[Hortensis]

20. The more extremist wackos who follow Rump the better.

And when they manage their coveted positions in the spotlight, even temporarily--excellent.

[Rex]

21. He better watch that laying on hands stuff, it can get brutal in the second round.

[Mamajami]

23. Protect him from what? Facts and truth?

[Avalux]

24. LOLOLOL!!!! Can't make this stuff up folks.

Fortunately - the only people who will believe it are those unfortunate enough to believe D'rump will save them.

[oasis]

25. Are you kidding me? This has got to be a SNL skit.

[ellie]

27. Er

okay crazy.

[ladym55]

28. Uhh, Jimmy, I don't think that was God in a dream

I think it was the aftereffects of a really bad burrito.

[nolabear]

30. They went to Grifter U together.

[3catwoman3]

31. Jeezus H. Krist on a cross.

Nuts. Just plain effing NUTS!!!

[BlueInPhilly]

33. God came to him in a dream?

Is he sure it isn't the "other guy"?

[hatrack]

34. And the non-Special Forces dead? Do they get the job of guarding Pence?

How about the National Guard dead? Do they guard Ivanka and Omorosa?

Fucking delusional shitbirds . . .
