I was thinking (I'm not religious btw, but studied some) that if God sent Trump it was a test and the people got a bit fat F grade. Like if he sent Jesus saying be nice, why the hell would he expect Trump to lead his followers? All a thought exercise in pointlessness I know. Sure believe what you want, but if you use those beliefs to act like an asshole or excuse other assholes then it's not a good one regardless. Even asshole isn't a strong enough word these days, bunch of hypocritical fucks.
The caring "Christian" god people think of as god would never send a vile creature like trump as a test. Unless that god is a total imbecile. Yes I was being facetious about Jeff Dahmer and Satan, but only sort of. Politicians are all hypocritical fucks but not all of them are trying to foment treason upon our county.
Trump isn't so much a full test as he is a professor's joke answer on a multiple choice question that you should immediately dismiss. Choosing that answer seriously should, indeed, earn you an F.
