'God chose Trump': president reads Scripture at MAGA Bible marathon

There's still a wing of MAGA that believes Trump is a divine instrument, and no insider trading or school bombing can convince them otherwise.

By Max Blumenthal

Max Blumenthal gained entrance to a gathering of evangelical Christian Trump supporters called America Reads The Bible.

Hosted at hosted at Washington DC's Museum of Bible, the week-long Bible-reading marathon featured members of Congress, cabinet secretaries and pastors reciting carefully curated sections of scripture before what's left of the MAGA faithful.

Despite not identifying as a Christian and his notorious past and present as a sinner, Trump was the star of the show, reading from Chronicles 7:11.

Blumenthal asked participants about the significance of Trump's reading, and whether they believed he was a divine instrument. He also probed their views about everything from the Iran war to Israel's destruction of Christian communities in southern Lebanon.
