President Trump is feeling called to a higher purpose.
In a series of tweets on Wednesday morning, Trump blasted out a quote from a well-documented conspiracy theorist who claimed Israeli Jews see Trump as the “King of Israel” and equated the President to a messianic figure, or “the second coming of God.”
Trump thanked the conspiracist, Wayne Allen Root, for his “very nice words,” tagging “Fox and Friends”; Newsmax, where Root works; and Trump’s now-preferred news source One America News Network.
“Thank you to Wayne Allyn Root for the very nice words. “President Trump is the greatest President for Jews and for Israel in the history of the world, not just America, he is the best President for Israel in the history of the world…and the Jewish people in Israel love him….

…..all Jews, Blacks, Gays, everyone. And importantly, he’s good for everyone in America who wants a job.” Wow! @newsmax @foxandfriends @OANN

Root is hardly shy about his embrace of some of the most racist, bombastic conspiracy theories. He’s one of the original birthers — following the racist conspiracy that former President Barack Obama was not born in the United States — and touted conspiracies about Seth Rich’s death, including that key Democrats like Hillary and Bill Clinton and John Podesta were involved in the former DNC staffer’s death.
He has also claimed that the Las Vegas shooting massacre was actually orchestrated by ISIS and that special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe was rooted in “penis envy” because “Mueller’s is smaller than Trump’s.”

Jez everybody know that’s not true…PROOF
And when asked?
Oh course we’ve reached the part of our program where the inept, incompetent, NPD actor acting as President now has a Messiah complex.
Oh. My. Dog.
The crazy burns bright in this one.
ETA. Outside of that he seems nice.
Wondering just how bizarre Trump would have to get before Congress invokes the 25th Amendment.
I know we’re nowhere near it, but his behavior this week does raise the question. Clearly he’s not emotionally fit for any job.
"equated the President to a messianic figure, or “the second coming of God.”
Seems legit. Looking around at the world a good case can be made they’re both effing assholes.
