The Trump-DeSantis feud just got worse. A hidden factor is driving it. #politics https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/11/07/donald-trump-ron-desantis-feud-christian-nationalism/
'In a bizarre turn, the Times also reports that Trump’s “DeSanctimonious” barb was an angry reaction to a new ad from DeSantis, which presents the Florida governor as a divinely anointed figure.
“On the eighth day,” DeSantis’s ad intones, “God looked down on his planned paradise and said: ‘I need a protector.’ So God made a fighter.”'
@John_Scotus “YOU can’t sacrilegiously claim to be America’s anointed savior! That’s MY deal!”
Also, having trouble finding anywhere in the Bible where God calls for us to be a “fighter”. All I can find is “Blessed are the meek” and “turn the other cheek”. 🤔
@John_Scotus Leaving aside the whole theological mess of claiming God needs humans to do His fighting or protecting for Him….
Essentially, Trump and DeSantis are fighting over who is the true Barabbas.
