Donald Trump claimed that if he took his shirt he would have more "wounds" than any other president in the history of the U.S.

    Like when he held a bible upside down in a photo op in front of a church after having things clear protestors out?

    Such wounds

    Much defence

    Wow

      They’ll believe whatever suits them to prop up their delusional world view. And they’ll refuse to acknowledge any facts that contradict it.

      “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” Hebrews 11:1

      It’s basically a cognitive dissonance conference.

      Can you actually find anyone who believes it literally? Honest question. I just watched the video, and it seems to me that he is saying it figuratively and not literally.

        Coach is saying that these people actually believe that he has been “defending religion”, not that they believe that he has literal wounds all over his body from it.

        You seem to be the one taking things a bit too literally.

          Truthfully, I believe there are “fine [yet moronic] people on both sides” of this thing. Religions seem to serve both hypocrites and idiots alike.

          His quote will sell lots of T-shirts, either way.

          I agree, including Trump.

          But this thread is full of people saying that they think he meant it literally and people believe it literally. And I think, although I could be wrong, that is what the top level commenter is getting at.

        In particular, Jesus showing off his wounds was the big evidence it was him and he had come back from the dead. He isn’t just being weird in front of religious people. He is selling himself as the new messiah.

    We need to bait him into rallying in a liberal city. We could all show up and pretend to take him seriously and just wait for him to say something insane like this.

    Then we could just yes-man him into doing embarrassing stuff. Hell yeah Mr. President, show us your beautiful wounded body. Take that shirt off. Do us a little dance. Jump up and down or something. C’mon, do a little fat man dance.

          He had a funny one basically saying that if he did show us his shirtless chest, we’d get to see how closely he resembled Baron Harkonnen.

          Curiously enough, I didn’t delete it. I was just scanning back through my posts when I saw “deleted by creator” on one of them, and since I know I haven’t deleted anything, I came to see what that was all about.

          There’s an option to undelete, so I did that, though unfortunately that means that yours is now the post without context. Sorry. 😅
