Absolutely disgusting.

Look in my eyes, what do you see?
The cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I've been everything you wanna be
Oh, I'm the cult of personality
Like Mussolini and Kennedy
I'm the cult of personality
The cult of personality
The cult of personality

Though, the second verse is more apt:
___
.
I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face on your TV
Oh, I'm the cult of personality
I exploit you, still you love me
I tell you one and one makes three
Oh, I'm the cult of personality
Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi
Oh, I'm the cult of personality
The cult of personality
The cult of personality

It's hard to tell if this shit is made by jews or boomers. I guess in practice there's not much of a difference.
Apostasy
5 years ago I floated the idea in my head that he's the anti-christ.
More and more things have happened since then that back up the prophecy from Revelations.

I thought about that myself but isn't the anti Christ supposed to be a figure that unites all people on both sides? He definitely doesn't fit that at least not yet. I'm not sure if that part is required though. My gut feeling tells me that perhaps the AC is near but it will come after Trump as a unifying figure. I think Trump will lay a lot of groundwork for it though like a digital mark of the beast to unperson people that don't bend. I'm not overly worried about it though because I realized a long time ago that becoming a Christian meant I was going to suffer to the end and I won't put anyone ahead of Jesus no matter what the stakes are. I was born with a kind of stubborn autism that when I believe I am right about something I don't back down even if broken and I have proven that. I have been almost beaten to death once on my life and had a shattered face because of it and I lost my career and friends because I refused to get vaccine and wear a mask. Jesus has saved me even through all that suffering is just part of life.
This is definitely _not_ on the level of 'TDS'. Do you know of any celebrity figure whose social media is full of 'TWS'? But Ron Perlman is just one of those whose Twitter/X profile was chock-full of TDS last I checked. These, by contrast, are just fringe people. This 'miked8890' profile gets practically zero engagement with his Tweets.
As for this fringe TWS, I agree that this is obviously misguided and stupid. Trump isn't a prophet or messenger of God, avatar (I recall that there is an Indian group that literally worships Trump, which possibly means that some fringe Hindus see him as an avatar), *buroozi* ('reflection' of a former prophet, e.g. in Sufi'ism), or any other such thing.
To my knowledge, Trump has never claimed to be the second coming of Jesus, which is the first argument that precludes him from being either Jesus or the anti-Christ (the latter narrative being peddled, for instance, by DonnieDarkened (?) or whatever that Twitter user's username is). I recall Trump saying that he was *like* Jesus in some way one or more years ago; nevertheless, that is not close enough; furthermore, he has made no similar claims since. One would think that the second coming of Jesus would have already made the concrete claim that he is indeed Jesus by the old age of 78.
Furthermore, he has performed no miracles. Of course, the failed Crooks assassination attempt admittedly does come off as miraculous, and thus can easily be interpreted as proof when combined with motivated reasoning. However, even if it was a miracle, it seems that it was performed *on* Trump by God rather than *by* a hypothetical God-Trump or Jesus-Trump, since Trump clearly appeared to be taken by surprise. This is further evidence that he is not God, nor Jesus, nor the anti-Christ. In short, he who does not claim to actually be Jesus and who does not seem to perform miracles is neither the second coming of Jesus nor the anti-Christ. (The anti-Christ's false miracles, though performed by demons, may be as convincing to us as true miracles.)
Now the aforementioned *burooz* concept is the most interesting of all as regards Trump, because my previous reasoning against all this does *not* work against the claim that Trump could be a prophet or messenger of this kind. A *buroozi* prophet or messenger in Sufi'ism is someone who has cultivated the qualities of a prior prophet or messenger to the extent that he has become a 'reflection', a continuation, of that prophet. His prophethood or messengership is a continuation of an older one, rather than one in its own right. When Trump said that he is *like* Jesus, this could be interpreted as the claim that he is a *buroozi* ('reflection') of Jesus, a sort of qualitative copy and continuation of Jesus in the world.
So we need to further strengthen our argument. To be a *burooz* prophet, Trump would still have to have received prophecies. But Trump has never even claimed to have received prophecies. Therefore, he is not a prophet or messenger of any kind. In conclusion, he does not make the concrete claim that he is any of these things, only that he was like Jesus in some way, and even if he did make the claim, he performs no miracles and receives no prophecies. In my mind, this is enough to lay any claim of this nature (Trump as God, Trump as Jesus, Trump as a prophet or messenger of God of any kind, etc.) to rest, and it should be enough for anyone else.
Returning to the profile of miked0990, he does seem to support something that I'd support: Trump as literal *King* of America. Unlike these weakly defensible theological claims, Trump as King would:
1) Drive many of the world's worst *untermenschen*, particularly those in America, up the wall, into mass despair and violence, accelerating their inevitable degeneration into such things as mental illness, childlessness, and drug (ab)use, a degeneration that had better happen sooner rather than later, for what is worse for them is better for those who are good;
2) End the farce of political parties, elections, the republic, and many of those other things that only help to keep the situation from reaching a boiling point and that obfuscate reality (we have the ideal political system but we just need to work out the fine details, everything would have been fine if only my party was in control, all sociopolitical problems can be solved by debate and voting, etc.);
3) Be one of *the* most megalothymotic moves of all time, a momentary return of the likes of a Julius Caesar, or of a Wang Mang and the failed but brave attempt of Zhong Hui in ancient Chinese history, that is, the move of one man overthrowing an entire political system. The move that only the Great Man, whose existence is denied by Marxism, could pull off. The move of a true *ubermensch* in the Nietzschean sense. This move is required to truly make Trump a Great Man, a man well-remembered in a thousand years, especially if he succeeds, rather than one who will be almost completely forgotten in less than two hundred. This move would be Trump finally attempting what Fukuyama and others have for decades feared that he was capable of.
Trump needs to make a power grab to truly cement his place in history, to be the man that would truly win the respect of Hegel (as did Napoleon), Nietzsche, and those many other more intelligent men who believe in the existence of the Great Man, the man who can singlehandedly change the course of history, the man without whom things would have turned out very different, the man who serves as a further disproof of Marxism and all other determinisms, the man whose existence even Trotsky reluctantly admitted in the end.
And so though I tend to dislike him, at least he will be worthy of all intelligent men's respect for millennia to come. Thus I say wholeheartedly: Trump for King! Prove to us all that you are the Great Man that the intellectuals among the petty men, the Fukuyamas of the world, have long feared that you are! To be a businessman is not enough, to be a president is not enough! To be *Absolute Monarch* is enough! I have argued that you cannot be God, but I have too argued that you can be, figuratively speaking, a God among men!
