Trump Will Make 2024 America’s Last Election - It’s No Joke

At the end of last week, Donald Trump announced this to a crowd at the Christian Nationalist Turning Point Action Believers Summit:

"Christians, get out and vote, just this time. You won't have to do it anymore for more years. You know what? It'll be fixed. It'll be fine. You won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians. I'm a Christian. I love you. Get out. You've got to get out and vote. In four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good, you're not going to have to vote."

Donald Trump is depicting voting as a terrible burden, as something that people don't want to do and that they shouldn't have to do. If the government is run right, and he's promising that he's gonna run the government in such a way that Americans will not want to vote again, and they will not vote in another election because things are going to be fixed.

When we were young, we were taught that voting was a civic duty, that voting a way for us to be empowered. It was a chance for us to be heard. It's not a burden. It's not a terrible thing. It's not a pain in the neck to have a voice in our own government. It's a privilege. It's something we should be proud of. But Donald Trump doesn't see it that way. He sees voting and having a country in which Americans turn out to vote as a burden, as an obstacle, as something that we would all be better off if it was just done away.

Donald Trump wants to fix it so that Christians never have to participate in another vote, never have to turn out on Election Day ever again, because their way of doing things, the Christian Nationalist way of doing things, is going to become permanent. That's an indication that Donald Trump intends to effectively end democracy in the United States.

As a child, Donald Trump regularly attended church at the First Presbyterian Church in Queens, New York, and he was confirmed as a member of that church going through the confirmation process of the Presbyterian Church at the age of 13. And then when he got a little bit older, he started attending the Marble Collegiate Church on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, New York, where Norman Vincent Peale was the preacher, and he met his first wife and second wife. He had his first two marriages at that church. He attended that church for 50 years.

So, is Donald Trump a Christian? His own actions and statements make it clear that Trump is a Christian. What’s more, he intends to end American democracy in order to give permanent power and privilege to Christian Nationalism. He’s saying it out loud, and he’s not joking.

Donald Trump has said that he wants to terminate parts of the Constitution of the United States of America, to terminate them. He has said that he wants to become a dictator and eliminate his opponents like vermin. He has said that he is willing to ignore the results of elections that don't go his way, and he has said that he is going to, if he is elected president, impose martial law and send the U.S. military out onto the streets of America with tanks and guns to impose his will. When you take all these statements together, it really doesn't look like a joke.

Donald Trump was raised a Christian, has been a member of the same church for 50 years. And in the Christian Bible, there is no democracy. There are no presidents, no senators, no congressional representatives in the Christian Bible and in the religious prophecy that Christianity has in the Book of Revelation, about what's going to happen when Jesus comes to earth and establishes the ideal Christian society, there will be no democracy, there will be no elections. There will be no voting, nly kings, only monarchy.

Donald Trump and his supporters at organizations like Turning Point Action's Believers Summit believe in Christian Nationalism. Christian Nationalism is their core moral and political ethical foundation. They don't believe in the values of the Constitution of the United States of America. They don't believe in the worth of democracy.

If you believe that democracy is worth defending, then it's up to you as one of the people to stand up and do your part to get involved, not to stay on the sidelines anymore. To use the power that you have been granted as a member of a democracy to direct the course of your own government, your own country's future, while you still can.
