According to a recent Rasmussen poll, after last month’s second assassination attempt on President Donald Trump, a thousand registered voters were asked this simple but weighty question:

“While it is always difficult to wish ill of another human being, would America be better off if Donald Trump had been killed last weekend?”

The results of that poll should astound everyone.

More than one-fourth of Democrats — 28% — said “yes.” The poll also revealed that another 24% of Democrats “were not sure” if America would be better off in the wake of Trump’s murder. Overall, 14% of registered voters “were not sure.” 

This revelation is unfathomable. To over 50% of Democrats, has the horrendous act of murdering a public figure now become okay (or “iffy”) because that person’s political views do not align with one’s own? 

How Many Who Are Okay With Trump Being Killed Identify as Christians?

After pondering these results, I could not help wondering how many people who responded identify as Christian, and specifically whether they are part of the group known as “Evangelicals for Harris.” Are Christians on board with these types of heinous acts? Does party affiliation now supersede all other allegiances and belief systems? Have the Ten Commandments now been supplanted by what can only be described as the farthest stretches of evil?

Has the biblical command, “You must not have any other gods before me,” been superseded by newfound wisdom of modern-day tyrants?

What other decrees by the Democrat Party do “Evangelicals for Harris” and myriad other Christians now consider kosher?

Christians Okay With Dumping “Honor Your Mother and Father”?

What about tromping on parental rights and the command to “Honor your mother and father”?

Neither children nor their teachers have permission now to inform parents of what is being taught in school — for example, when children are being counseled to take sex-altering hormones, or are scheduled for life-changing surgeries.  And if you are a parent attempting to learn what is being taught in your child’s classroom, have you discovered that school board meetings are off limits to you?

When children are being mutilated — not just physically, but also with inappropriate sex books and instructions, as well as drag-queen story hours — do Christians give far-left Democrats a pass? Do we need to be reminded of the warning from Jesus:

“[B]ut whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it is better for him that a heavy millstone be hung around his neck, and that he be drowned in the depths of the sea.” (Matthew 18:6 NASB)

What about the Eighth Commandment, “You must not steal”? Is it a stretch to say it also applies to elections?

And: “You must not bear false witness.” Does that still apply across the board, or are only those pronouncements that have been fact-checked by Deep State operatives in the guise of social media moderators permissible?

Has the Holy Trinity been replaced by the World Economic Forum as “God the Father”? And will whomever the WEF installs as the American president, the supposed leader of the Free World, take the place of “God the Son”? Can we now assume that the all-seeing, all-surveilling FBI is the Holy Ghost? (And when they are too busy entrapping your pro-life grandma for praying outside an abortion facility, does the CIA take over its Ghostly duties?)

Oblivious to Evil, Bamboozled by the Father of Lies

With all that has transpired in the past three and a half years, why are so many ordinary citizens and even Bible-believing Christians still buffaloed into following all edicts from the Democrat Party on high? Can they be that oblivious to the evil in plain sight? Or has the constant drumbeat of repeating lies ad nauseam through the Deep State mainstream media bullhorn addled the brains of so many previously wide-awake citizens?

It has been said that a lie runs around the world ten times before the Truth even gets its sneakers on. And we know that one of the tactics of tyrants is to spew a lie often enough that it becomes accepted as the truth.

This brings us back to the beginning.

In Rasmussen’s “Trump assassination” survey, perhaps we should not be surprised that 28% of hard-core Democrats believe the nation would be better off if Trump were eliminated permanently. They have swallowed hook, line, and sinker the often-told lie that the former president is indeed Hitler 2.0. And if we have learned anything from history, isn’t it best to eliminate the next Hitler before he takes over a country? Is that not only the common-sense plan of action, but also a Christian imperative? Assassination of an evil villain can certainly be God-ordained; even the great theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer tried that.

So, perhaps it’s not at all ironic that the fascist tyrants who control the Democrat Party have labeled their number one rival Hitler. After all, they are seen by many as the overall authority on everything that exists, and when they speak, they speak “Truth” into existence.

But the Bible counters every single machination of the wicked:

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.” (Isaiah 5:20 NIV)

What Lies Ahead?

There is always hope that the average American citizen and Christians foolish enough to consider voting for a Harris/Walz administration will awaken sometime in the next four weeks.

Abraham Lincoln observed, “You can fool part of the people some of the time, you can fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all the people all of the time.”

Maybe in this election season all those who know the “true Truth” found in the Bible will wake up, rise up out of their pews, and vote the current church of the Democrat Party out of their Washington Sanctuary.
