Conservative organizers of the “Million Women” worship rally billed the event — and the November election — as “a last stand moment” to save the nation from satanic forces.
Tens of thousands of evangelical Christians gathered on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., on Saturday to pray for America’s atonement and for Donald Trump’s return to the White House.
Organizers of the event, billed “A Million Women,” described the gathering — and next month’s presidential election — as “a last stand moment” to save the nation from forces of darkness. For hours, the gathered masses sang worship songs, waved flags symbolizing their belief that America was founded as an explicitly Christian nation and prayed aloud for Jesus to intercede on behalf of Trump in November.
“If we don’t stand now,” said Grace Lin, who traveled from Los Angeles for the rally and came wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat, “then the enemy will take over our country. If that happens, that’s the end.”

Religions are delusions, and basing your political views on religion, means your political views are based on delusions.
But as a Christian to support Trump is crazy. There is no doubt that Jesus would oppose Trump strongly, for his inhumane denial to help the poor and the sick. For instance being against raising minimum wage, and against healthcare for all.
What, Jesus wasn’t a rich, boasting, powerhungry pussy grabber??!
He did seem to hang out with an awful lot of rich people, though.
