No longer fringe, the end times crowd is now firmly seated in our nation’s control booth.
Merry Christmas one and all.

“They’re looking at Donald Trump” as the messiah, Horn said of “the rabbis,” saying that Trump’s name “actually means ‘messiah.’”
Among the clues that Trump may be the messiah, he said, is that the president-elect is a kingly and warrior-like leader committed to protecting Israel and, according to Horn, rebuilding the Temple of Jerusalem.
Horn said that if Trump is not the messiah, then he is likely “the forerunner” to the messiah who “will start the message in the wilderness and the messiah is going to come in on his heels.”
If Trump turns out to only be a John the Baptist-like figure, Horn explained, then his inauguration will signal the beginning of the “countdown to the appearance of the messiah.”
But the “rabbis” who “do think he is the messiah,” Horn said, are looking for proof that Trump’s “bloodline goes back to the Davidic dynasty.”
Horn added that the Antichrist is also about to materialize, but is definitely not Trump.

During his “Black Friday” special last week, Jim Bakker continued to gush over Donald Trump and extol his election as president, but this time with a new twist: Trump, he said, may usher in the Last Days.
While hawking his survivalist products, the right-wing televangelist said that Trump may rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem and hasten Jewish immigration to Israel, citing two articles from an End Times outlet called “Breaking Israel News.”
One article quotes neo-Zionist Hillel Weiss urging Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin to work together in rebuilding the Temple, and the other discusses two rabbis who have called on American Jews to see the election “as a clear message to come home to Israel.”
“Putin and Trump, I don’t know what’s going on, but they’re talking about helping Israel rebuild their Temple,” Bakker declared.
“When they start talking about building the Temple and the Jews all coming back to Israel, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords comes after that,” he added.

While the relatively few mainstream media and alternative media covers of the CNP have typically described the group as merely “conservative”, that hardly sums things up.
Over the years, these would-be masters of the world have included a number of leaders from the Christian Reconstructionism movement who advocate the imposition of strict biblical law including execution for adultery, blasphemy, homosexuality, and witchcraft (and a much longer list of offenses).
In effect, the CNP is command central for the culture wars that have since the mid 1970s wracked America ; it is the organizational center for a movement engaged in a slow-motion “soft revolution” to “reclaim” America and return it to its alleged “Judeo-Christian” roots.
The time is long overdue for mainstream media to stop pooh-poohing this movement ; especially because that crass dereliction of journalistic duty has helped pave the way for the rise of Donald Trump.
amen.
