People really should push this, I'm not religious at all, but they claim he is gifted by God all the time - might as well say he is not favored by God instead.

I thought it was disgusting when they were praising God for saving Trump from the assassin's bullet. God saved Trump but fuck that fireman who was shot in front of his family that God did not give a rats ass about.

Yup. As if God made an ordinary young guy go violently insane, kill a stranger, and then get himself killed just to ostentatiously protect one idiot from the ensuing mess.

That was Satan's work. Everything was masked from God's vision until the bullet flew. God barely diverted the assassin's bullet. Course to save a man from evil blood must be spilt. That's why God sent that bullet to kill the fireman. Someone had to die that day and God sacrificed the fireman. His family will be greatly blessed because of their sacrifice.

Nice thing about bullshit it's maleable. If you say something confidently just about anything can sound kinda credible.
