Trump Brought His Bible
-{This is from Hit Coffee from a while ago. Thought I would share it here because I still find it amusing.}-
So Elizabeth — when she was young, very charming, very, very charming. Could't have a baby. Sad. Really sad. https://t.co/9RRlJUZzyb

I mean, she just wanted a little baby. Waited years and years. Didn't happen. No kids. Very sad. I mean, years go by. Years.

And so by nooow, she's old. Nice lady, but not so much to look at anymore, you know? No kids. No grandkids. House is very quiet. Sad stuff.

But listen to this: Now, this angel, Gabe, just pops up out of left field one day and surprises the hell out of Elizabeth's husband.
— Katherine Miller (@katherinemiller) February 23, 2016
Hell of a surprise. And this angel — really impressive guy, tremendously impressive — tells him: Listen, your wife's going to have a baby.

And Elizabeth's husband says, Wow. That's really something. Wow. A baby. Huh. But we're so old, he tells this angel.

But listen, here's the key part. The angel's no dummy. Nope. He says: That's right, a baby. Here's the deal. Always gotta have a deal.
— Katherine Miller (@katherinemiller) February 23, 2016
The angel tells him: The deal is you're going to name the baby John. And he's gonna do a bunch of stuff for God. Boom Done deal.
— Katherine Miller (@katherinemiller) February 23, 2016
So the angel gets his deal. Elizabeth gets a baby. Everybody's happy. Everybody's rejoicing. Amazing thing. Amazing. The word of the Lord.

I am deeply amused by Katherine Miller’s retelling of this story.
As for Trump, I don’t know how people can stand to be talked to like that. Apparently there’s some who like it.Report
That was way too coherent for Trump now. It’s perhaps how he’d have told it in 2016 when it was originally posted, but his faculties are in decline.Report
I’d never heard that story about John. Clearly copied from the one about Isaac, and as far as I can tell with no attribution.Report
I interpret it as an attempt to tell the story of Isaac’s birth, only he got literally every name wrong. And, of course, he’d get thunderous applause for it.
Remember when he went to Liberty University and mis-quoted the book of “Two Corinthians?”Report
Are you not supposed to read it that way?Report
