No shortage of anti-christs
The apostle John here: We never run out of anti-christs.
Had it not quite right about his being the “last hour.” Cut him some slack on that, if you’re smart. That is, don’t be too smart for your own (or anyone else’s) good. A distraction that, good stuff surrounding it.

They came and went for the early church. Hmmm.

The reason he’s anti-anti-Trump « Hot Air Headline
That such a flawed contender could be a front-runner tells us more about what’s wrong with the country than about what’s wrong with his followers.
Read the whole article here, where you find:
People have every reason to expect that their government will take its most basic responsibilities seriously, and every reason to be angry when, instead, it proves more feckless than conscientious.
For instance,
the indignant Trump voters fail to grasp the rationale that led the federal government to conclude that increasing risks to Americans was an acceptable trade-off for a policy that “prohibited immigration officials from reviewing the social media messages of all foreign citizens applying for U.S. visas.”
The Cabinet officer in charge of Homeland Security, as the president understands that concept, favored the policy because he feared more aggressive scrutiny of visa applications might trigger “a civil liberties backlash and ‘bad public relations’ for the Obama administration,” according to ABC News.
In other words, how dumb can Trump supporters be, that they see our government sloppy and feckless and, failing to be “stoic” in the face of the San Berardino massacre, will turn a blind eye to such malfeasance?
