If Mr. Trump is indeed a new Christian, he, of course, would depart this earth in the Rapture. Then, don't you think that laws would be changed to allow the 'runner up' to take office in January, thus, H. C. (Hillary Clinton ) would still be POTUS. But none of us would be living in US anymore, we'd be home! (dancing emoji )

'Trump told a 2015 South Carolina campaign audience he attends Marble Collegiate Church, where he married his first wife Ivana in 1977. Marble has said that, though Trump has a longstanding history with the church, he is a Presbyterian and not an active member of Marble. Trump has said that although he participates in Holy Communion, he has not asked God for forgiveness for his sins. He stated, "I think if I do something wrong, I think, I just try and make it right. I don't bring God into that picture.'
'If. ' [/Spartan Laconic Wit]
...and once we hear the words in January of next year 'Congratulations Madam President', you are well and truly fucked .

You'd have thought that Ruptured Retards of all places would have learned from May/October 2011, re. Harold Camping.
That forum is just a newsflash waiting to happen. [/Jonestown]
"Then, don't you think that laws would be changed to allow the 'runner up' to take office in January"
- thats not how succession works, and it would make absoloutly no sense to change it so it would work like that.And I rather doubt that every single member of the line of succession would be raptured, no matter how what. (Though, it seems rather doubtfull to me that Mr. Trump would qualify as a "good christean" in the first place to get raptured, unless the standards for that would be awfully low)
" But none of us would be living in US anymore, we'd be home"
- does anyone else find the typical rapture-ready-mentality of "who cares what happens to the world after I'm raptured/dead" disturbing? I mean that implies an incredible disregard for the wellbeing of ones fellow humans.
Plus the rather death-cultish implications of considering ones mythologys afterlife "home", as if the worldly existence doesn't matter.

"Listen to Trump talk, does that sound like a Christian?"
Listen to his Evangelical support base, this is their brand of asshole. Believe it or not Arrogant lying scummy piece of shit Cruz wasn't being nasty enough for them, they want full on 'fuck it all, I wanna see people hurt' candidates. Fundamentalism has made them hate and/or fear the world, it all boils down to that for them.
The Evangelical and Southern Baptist world is full of Trump rhetoric, full of racist, afraid, stupid, vicious assholerery. No 'true Christian' BS here, this is that olde time religion coming back to fuck it all up again.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
