I love your daily expletive-filled sunshine and laughs in my box. I wanted to share something with you and this is the only way I know how.
My daughter-in-law had the brilliant idea to ask CHAT GPT if Jesus would have voted for Trump as she is dealing with family members who are Christian Trump supporters. This was the answer and I feel like this should be shared far and wide.
"This is a thought-provoking and complex question that blends theology with politics. While we can’t definitively say who Jesus would have voted for—especially since He lived in a very different historical and political context—it is possible to analyze Trump’s policies and behavior in light of Jesus’ teachings.
🕊️ Key Teachings of Jesus to Consider:
• Compassion for the poor and marginalized (Matthew 25:35–40)
• Welcoming the stranger and foreigner (Matthew 25:35, Luke 10:27–37)
• Nonviolence and humility (Matthew 5:5, Matthew 5:9)
• Truthfulness and integrity (John 8:44 speaks of the devil as the father of lies; Jesus often emphasized truth)
• Care for children (Mark 9:37)
🧾 Actions by Donald Trump That May Conflict:
• Separation of immigrant children from families
• Harsh rhetoric toward immigrants and refugees
• Multiple documented falsehoods and a felony conviction for falsifying business records
• Civil liability for sexual abuse and defamation
• Policies favoring wealthier Americans, including tax cuts for the rich
🔍 Counterpoints Some Might Make:
• Strong support for religious liberty
• Opposition to abortion (a major moral issue for many Christians)
• Support from many evangelical leaders who view him as a “flawed but useful vessel”
🤔 Conclusion:
It’s unlikely that Jesus—as described in the Gospels—would align Himself with any modern political party or leader. His teachings emphasize humility, compassion, truth, and justice, and He consistently challenged the powerful and uplifted the marginalized. Based on those values, many of Trump’s policies and behaviors would seem to conflict with Jesus’ moral and ethical priorities.
That said, different Christians interpret Jesus’ message in different ways, leading to diverse political conclusions. But if your question is about alignment with the character and teachings of Jesus, the evidence suggests significant tension between that and Trump’s actions in both elections."
