MAGA clergy bless 22-foot gold Trump statue at Doral
Pastor Mark Burns led evangelical and Jewish clergy in dedicating and blessing a 22 foot, gold leafed statue of Donald Trump in Doral, Florida. Clergy formed a circle around the gilded effigy and carried out a public blessing and dedication. The display ties explicit religious ritual to partisan support for Trump, signaling some faith leaders are using sacred symbolism to endorse a political figure.
Trump called in as MAGA religious leaders dedicated the giant golden statue of himself at his Doral golf club
Dave King396Normal person: “This is literally in the Bible as something not to do.” MAGA: “Cry more commielib.”

Lady Ligeia56What about the 2nd Commandment? You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them….
Linda Marie 🕊️53Oh goodie. Something to knock down.
Richard Russell #🟦 🌊🇺🇸🇺🇦 #IStandWithUkraine37That's quite a golden calf they have there.
Digital Relic 🌀33This cartoonist saw this coming a decade ago.
Luigi -the Pizza Prime Minister28I would demolish his golden statue
Darth Relyk26It's crazy how on-the-money they were with this
Hank G19Oh the irony that these right wing "Christians" have a golden calf to worship now...
thyroid-2303.bsky.social16Another gift to dems. Make it a poster. Looks like it got TP’d???
Dr Robin12Trump is MAGA’s golden calf.
Sascha_Vykos211God I can't wait to tear all this shit down.
Cori9I knew they'd get around to the golden idol sooner or later. Pretty much what I've come to expect from the twice-impeached criminally seditious traitor and 34-time CONVICTED FELON sociopathic antichrist fraudster.
Bumblesnuff Crimpysnitch 🇨🇦🏳️⚧️🌻♾️9Just straight up Golden Calf-ing himself for the Christofascists. Looking forward to the toppling and beating in of spraypainted plaster.
Bette V. Collins 🇺🇸📎🧷V for Victory8Seriously did none of these people ever see The Ten Commandments 😉 youtu.be/Id6oS3L-D9A?...
laura bishop8What an abomination for these “leaders” who apparently are unaware of idolatry and failing to rebuke Trump.
Smith’s Hand8It's not a cult. Also, libations, tithes, and prayers for divine mercy may be left on the pedestal. Ask one of the priests in ceremonial long red neckties before making sacrifices at the altar.
am baglereau7None of these people have read the Old Testament. There’s a specific bit about a golden statue that they might be interested in
Heather Chacon6So many professed Christians just gibbikty gooblty at the feet of outright golden idols these days
John6Worshipping false idols. How American Evangelical
Joy5Remember that scene in "The Ten Commandments" where Moses smashes the stone tablets on the golden calf, and it causes an earthquake, and it opens up the Earth and the worshippers and followers fall to hell... yeah... like that.
ice.cream.assassin5Admittedly it will be fun to see the myriad of ways this thing is defaced.
Nisa5Table of false idol party of one. Table of false idol party of one.

islandnana64.bsky.social4MAGA’s worshipping a golden idol. 🙄 Isn’t that in their Big Book and Commandments stating do not do that?! 😂
danesinc 🇨🇦🇺🇦3And the kicker: Not just dedicated, but blessed by evangelical preachers! Protestants worshipping a statue. Idolatry, one of the reasons for their break with Catholicism in the 1500’s.
Nancy Hicks3It looks like someone TP’d it. Isn’t it very like the golden calf in the Bible? It seems like a violation of the First Commandment.
Foxtrot Delta Tango - 86473Something something golden calf ...
robwardtx.bsky.social3Can't wait to see it torn down & destroyed.
🧿3I know people are comparing this idol to the biblical golden bull but all I see is a golden pig.
UnclePeneaux3They just spray painted the one from Central Park and put it in Doral.
Kees Oerlemans3I think there is a story in the bible about worshipping golden statues.
Fugetaboutit3Well, it's not a golden bull, but it is a golden bullshitter. 🤣
sunne.bsky.social3I love that it is hideous
Vichy Dems ⚛️ 🇺🇦3They’re not religious leaders, they’re CULT leaders.
Warframe Herzog2It’s all so on the nose
Lile2Why is his hand so tiny?
Drake Pliskin2Psycho's...the lot of them, pure Psycho's!!!
@White haired man2Looks like someone has already TP’ed it 👍
Pamela Crossley2For those who think there's a gray zone of good and bad for Trump take a look. His followers are idolators, plain and simple. They have no ethical principles, no humane values, no respect for fact--they have perverted all government to please their god, and they will continue until they are stopped.
RBird2This would be a good place to post the 10 Commandments.
fjatke.bsky.social2Why is there toilet paper around his neck?
LesnielBC 🇨🇦🇩🇰2MAGA worships a false god, obviously. He has grabbed each and every one of them (the guys, too) by the pussy and they let him. He also grabbed them by the wallet and the voters ballot.
JilleenST2Clearly, posting the 10 Commandments has not increased their comprehension of the concepts.
Deirdre [REDACTED]2Why didn't he fly in? 🤔
JVL2Hope a flock of pigeons find it.
Mark Squires2Really, there's just something fundamentally wrong with Trump. And yet much of MAGA persists in viewing him as this vibrant, really smart and virile leader. Sheesh.
ThommyLA2This is Christopher Guest levels of parody IRL… 🤦🏻♂️
LindaSW51502The toilet paper draped around this piece of shit is certainly a nice touch, isn't it?
OKSoWereDoingThis2How is he not embarrassed by that? It’s embarrassing how stupid it looks
JD19732All born agains within MAGA are frauds and crooks.
Tracy2Is there going to be a fiery furnace?
Juju Bee2Looks like it already got tp-ed.
catlady49ers.bsky.social2Worshiping a false idol! 🙄
“I keep thinking about what Pope Leo XIV said. ‘But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.’ That is what occurred at Doral.” open.substack.com/pub/lettersf...
Donna Halper9Former chaplain here. As I recall, the worship of the golden calf did not end well for those who participated...
Toonces McGillicutty5The people thumping the Bible the hardest seemed to overlook that calf story.
kristinekenyon.bsky.social4Trump believes he’s above God. @andertoon.bsky.social
msdobalina.bsky.social4No one trolls Christianity harder than Trump Christians
732lighthouse.bsky.social4God sent us Pope Leo. He’s desperately-needed because Trump & partners-in-crime continue to do the work of the devil‼️
Jessica Brown3Trump is a total loser and a major creep! Why would anyone make a statue of him is just insane
pandagrl1.bsky.social3So much for the second commandment
Jimmy L 📚2It's making me think of Lot saying to Trump, "God told me to tell you to look back."
TheDoggyDoctor142Nothing says MAGA like worshipping a golden pig
Bohemian Peasant2The cautionary tale of the golden calf from Exodus 32 is instructive here. The golden idol ends up ground to powder and the worshippers forced to eat it .
greg munsill2Continued evidence it's a cult: Graven Images -- check!!
Pastor for Trump dedicates Golden Idol at the Doral National Country Club in Florida, as audience gasps. “This statue is a celebration of life. It is a symbol of resilience, freedom, patriotism, strength, and the will power to keep fighting for the future of America.”
Scott Horton27He did not invite them to make sacrifices on the altar erected in front of the Golden Idol, however.
pileque.bsky.social2“Let me be clear: this is not a golden calf,” he said. “This statue is a celebration of life. It is a symbol of resilience, freedom, patriotism, strength, and the will power to keep fighting for the future of America.” We have some dumb fuckers in the USA.
