Trump Shares Claim He’s “Chosen And Blessed By God”

“Do you believe in miracles? Remember those words by sports broadcaster Al Michaels when the underdog US Hockey team won the Olympic Gold in the 1980 Winter Olympics? History has branded that game ‘The Miracle on Ice.’ I believe a miracle, sent directly by God, is happening right in front of us, right now. You just have to open your eyes. Do you believe in miracles? It’s time to start believing. What’s happening is supernatural. Everyone is starting to see it. Everyone is starting to believe. The signs are there. Trump is ‘the Chosen One.’ Trump is sent by God and blessed by God.” – Wayne Root, in a Gateway Pundit column shared yesterday by Trump.

Also yesterday, Trump shared a column comparing his legal troubles to the crucifixion of Christ.

Wayne Root last appeared here in 2022 when he delivered a Trump rally speech claiming that Obama is secretly the real president and that he is controlled by “Jews and Chinese communists.”

Root was banned by Twitter in 2021 for spreading lies about COVID and the vaccines. He appeared on JMG in March 2020 when the New York Attorney General sent him a cease-and-desist letter for promoting a fake COVID cure.

Root has served as the warmup act at multiple Trump rallies. At one of those rallies his encouraged the audience to fantasize about Hillary Clinton dying in a car crash “Thelma & Louise-style.”

Root has declared that Trump is “far too handsome” to ever need to grope women. In August 2016 he called for banning people on public assistance and women on birth control from voting.

He’s also promoted all the usual far-right bullshit about Seth Rich, the Charlottesville Nazi rally, and mass shootings.

Root first appeared on JMG in 2012 as one of the leading proponents of racist birther claims about Barack Obama, seguing later into claims that Obama is secretly gay and never attended Columbia University.
