Mike Johnson: God Chose Me To Be America's "Moses" - Joe.My.God. - eviltoast

“I’ll tell you a secret, since media is not here. Thank you for not allowing the media in. Look, I’m a Southern Baptist, I don’t wanna get too spooky on you, But, you know, the Lord speaks to your heart.

“The Lord began to wake me up, through this three-week process, in the middle of night to speak to me. The Lord impressed upon my heart a few weeks before this happened that something was going to occur.

“And the Lord very specifically told me in my prayers to prepare, but to wait. At the time, I assumed the Lord was going to choose a new Moses and thank you, Lord, you’re going to allow me to be Aaron to Moses.

“I had this sense that we were going to come to a Red Sea moment in our Republican conference and in the county at large. God had been speaking to me about this, and the Lord told me very clearly to prepare and be ready.

“Ultimately 13 people ran for the post. And the Lord kept telling me to, ‘Wait, wait, wait.’ So I waited, I waited. And then at the end the Lord said, ‘Now step forward.’

“Me? I’m supposed to be Aaron. ‘No,’ the Lord said, ‘Step forward.’” – Mike Johnson, speaking last night to the far-right National Association of Christian Lawmakers.

This man is a true believer. True believers do not compromise anything that goes against what they believe their religion tells them. This man is far more dangerous than Donald Trump, who is simply a grifter and was in it for himself. This guy thinks the gods have ordained him. Anybody who stands against him is going against God, in his own mind.

    Hopefully dems maintain the white house in 24

    I honestly don’t know if Biden can do it…

    Especially since he’s now running around saying he’s only running because trump is, but that he thinks “at least 50” other Dems could beat trump.

    Dude is too fucking old and unpopular, there’s no reason for him to be the candidate again. Especially when he’s flat out telling people the only reason he’s running is to beat trump, but others could beat him as well.

    Just get out of the way and let someone who isn’t 20 years past retirement age get a shot.

    They just refuse to admit their time is over.
