If god has chosen him then he obviously doesn't need democracy.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I just ran a quick errand and saw a car with a Trump bumper sticker on it...not unusual in Texas. Instead of springing for a new sticker they had taken a black marker and covered Pence.

'Over the seas and over our land. And then they want us to have clean. I said wait, we're gonna be clean, but it's all flying. Just remember that, does that make sense? In other words, it's all coming through the currents through the air, they can name it.' - Donald Trump, outlining US energy policy.

Trump is now saying the the American Civil War could have been avoided with ‘a negotiated settlement’.
Negotiate what??
