I think I'm more Old Testament with this one. I like my God smiting people. Trump's definitely due a smiting.

OP, if you're genuinely serious and are indeed a religious person, then you offer up your prayers and feel better for it. He won't get any of mine.

😂. Fuck no.

Madhairday · 02/10/2020 18:16

So much this.

Madhairday · 02/10/2020 18:17

Oops. That was supposed to quote another poster and instead it sounds like I agree with the OP Shock

FWIW, then, here's my answer

I believe in the power of prayer

So No.

Stand back & stand by.

@TheJessicaClarke

Waking up to the news that that vile sociopathic sexual predator has covfefe (Grin) has cheered me right up. I have never prayed in my life, but this is the first time I've had an inkling that there might, in fact, be a god.

So I am praying. I'm praying that he experiences everything he's inflicted on thousands of blameless people. I'm praying for whatever it takes to ensure the world doesn't have to suffer another four years of that prick. And I'm happy. Cheers! Wine

Btw I'm sure Melania will be fine. Hope she manages to come out of it with a decent nest egg, she's earned it, for all her flaws.

wakemeupwhen · 02/10/2020 18:29

Yes you are being most definitely absolutely unreasonable. I'm definitely more of an eye of eye person, but karma would only apply here if he had a really really bad dose and a dose of Ebola, swine flu and chuck in HN51 for good measure Grin

Roussette · 02/10/2020 18:30

No, I am praying he won't die (and I'm not religious). It will create the most incredible turmoil if he does, and his cult followers will make him into a deity and spur possible waverers into voting for the Repubs.

So please not. Let him recover and quickly, and be beaten at the polls with the biggest blue wave ever

Dita73 · 02/10/2020 18:30

You go ahead and pray if you want. I’m on the next flight to Washington with a syringe and a big bottle of Domestos

AgeLikeWine · 02/10/2020 18:38

If I posted my real hopes and prayers about what happens to Trump, I would be banned from MN for life, so I will just say ‘get well soon, Melania’ and leave it at that.

bettsbattenburg · 02/10/2020 18:40

Be careful what you wish for.

Waxonwaxoff0 · 02/10/2020 18:43

Lol

Zoflorabore · 02/10/2020 18:43

haha piss off Grin I didn’t pray for Boris so I’m certainly not praying for Dump. Unless you count the bad thoughts in my head.....

What, for Pence to be struck down as well?
Myothercarisalsoshit · 02/10/2020 18:49

Naah OP.
Fuuuuuuuucccckkkk That!

vlnr77yac · 02/10/2020 18:59

@intheenddoesitreallymatter

So agreed!!

PLUS ... 'Suffer little children" for the 3000 babies and toddlers sleeping on concrete floors today under foil blankets and some with Covid caught under govt care and getting minimal care.... AFTER being seized from their parents they may never see again. All to set an example.

OH ... AND "Vengeance is mine" said the Lord ... which appears he might be extracting right about now !!!

To quote comedian Dave Chappelle - did he not think he would incur the wrath of God from all of this cruelty ??!!

Defenbaker · 02/10/2020 19:00

Maybe if he gets quite ill with the virus he will take the virus more seriously. He never really adhered much to mask wearing, which hasn't helped in the USA, where people have politicised the wearing of masks.

He's not my cup of tea, but I don't wish him any harm. I quite like Melania (which I've already been slated for another thread, so I know this is not a popular view), and feel a bit sorry for her, being in quarantine with him, as he seems to be quite a difficult man to be around at the best of times, and would probably be quite a grumpy patient. Anyway, I daresay the West Wing is big enough for them to each have their own suite of rooms.

Sophiafour · 02/10/2020 19:01

I'm praying for Gilead, sorry I mean America. How's that?

Under his eye and all.

Audreyseyebrows · 02/10/2020 19:01

Are you drunk?

SunshineCake · 02/10/2020 19:01

@TheJessicaClarke

Please
Haven't got time to read all that

Not sorry
