It has already begun...

Prepare for an onslaught of braggadocio & Christian triumphalism from Trump's charismatic Christian followers as they surround the President Elect w/ an aura or godliness to mask an agenda of authoritarianism.

for 80 millionth time, the only reason Pennsylvania can't do this is because Republicans blocked a bill that would've allowed the pre-processing of early votes

[Will Cain @willcain]

Florida went from laughing stock in 2000 to the national model for fast accurate ballot counting. With 7m voters.

Take notes Pennsylvania.

[Danica Patrick @DanicaPatrick]

Whoaaa what the?! Can anyone explain this?!

[Payton Armstrong @Payarm18]

wallnau is now actively figuring out the details of the conspiracy theories he'll be pushing after claiming "there will be cheating" since July

The Trump-backing, Seven Mountains-preaching, evangelical influencer Lance Wallnau is priming followers to distrust the election outcome based on “advanced algorithms and data patterns.”

A few weeks after J.D. Vance appeared at a Wallnau event in Pennsylvania.

[Payton Armstrong @Payarm18]

this event was initially billed as “an invitation-only thing” organized by conspiracy theorist Clay Clark, who had had said that numerous "prophets" would be in attendance

Happening now, two weeks until Election Day: A pastor warming up the crowd for Trump at a Christian nationalist rally declares that it’s “the will of God” for Trump to return to the White House.

[Christian Nightmares @ChristnNitemare]

Trump scheduled to address right-wing media “prophets” and pastors who claim he’s “anointed to be King” https://t.co/Zi7LcB83sD via @Payarm18 @ehananoki @mmfa

[Payton Armstrong @Payarm18]

@jackmjenkins Trump made this claim in an interview last week with christian nationalist program flashpoint, telling the host that “God saved me” from the assassination attempt “because he wants me to save this country for you and for people that think like we do.”

Great profile of Lance Wallnau written for @RNS by @misstessowen. She even talked to Lance's estranged brother (I think that's a 1st).

I argue in my book that Wallnau is more in touch w/ the id of evangelicalism than any other Christian leader today.

In Trump's latest interview with Christian nationalist program FlashPoint, he told the host that “God saved me” from the July assassination attempt “because he wants me to save this country for you and for people that think like we do” @mmfa

(multiple people pointing out that it would've been a jonah plot and I wish i had thought of that but I didn't sorry)

[Payton Armstrong @Payarm18]

do the writers of veep feel dumb for not coming up with a plot line where gary or mike get in a shoving match with officials at arlington national cemetery for not allowing campaign photos

[Acyn @Acyn]

Vance: First, the altercation at Arlington cemetery is the media creating a story where I don't really think there is one…

[Payton Armstrong @Payarm18]

may I say it makes me disassociate to see Hillary at DNC 2024 in any capacity

NEW: Trump and his MAGA allies increasingly embrace extreme prophetic media “Trump’s inner circle is embracing the prophets” https://t.co/0F03DH9lHS

[Payton Armstrong @Payarm18]

@mmfa Trump has told a leading prophetic program that “we’re with you 1,000%,” while his daughter-in-law and RNC co-chair Lara Trump has told prophets that “we love you” and “on behalf of our whole family, thank you for all of the prayers, thank you for ... fighting alongside of us.”

[Payton Armstrong @Payarm18]

Trump, his family, and close advisors have increasingly embraced extreme prophetic media, giving interviews to programs that have asserted Trump has “the anointing” from God and that have prophesied the deaths of his critics @mmfa

Have you been arraigned yet in Arizona for trying to overturn the last election. Waiting patiently for a mugshot

[Jenna Ellis 🐊 @realJennaEllis]

The terms are acceptable (and, literally, scriptural). 🤷🏼‍♀️

@MattWalshBlog You know you can ask at Chick-fil-A for your preferred level of waffle fry crispiness.
