“You must sacrifice”: Maga’s virgins for the echo of the commercial war, Trump “prosperity” prosperity “
“Go ahead with your fate,” Paula White, head of the White House of Faith Office Donald Trump. The new videos of charismatic lap Her followers, who swollen their ranks as a result of her close relationship with Trump, guided that “you should somehow sacrifice during this Prophet’s season, because by sacrificing so that your soul opens so wide that you can get a divine direction.” It promises a “increase” for those who plant a “seed”, citing proverbs 1:33, which is “safety” and “ease” for believers. What is the white “sacrifice” that its followers will make for their safety and ease? Why, send her a check for $ 133, which means that they will be returned several times by God.
The White House of faith, Paula White, says that there is a narrow “prophetic season” for God to bless you, but only if you give it $ 133, then spend now.

White is one of the most prominent sellers in the country in the “Gospel of prosperity”. Religious Studies expert Kate Bulaler also explained in Fox in 2018, It is a Christian movement studying “God will give you the desires of your heart: money in the bank, a healthy body, a prosperous family, and a boundless happiness.” All you have to do is prove your faith by writing checks for leaders, even – perhaps – in particular – if you cannot bear it. By doing this, they count, God will reward them enough, and often in cold and difficult money.
Trump built his career on fraud, which led to multiple civil provisions against him and his company to extract customers and the public. It is not surprising, that his favorite preachers are the types of “prosperity gospel”, which is a particularly rude GRIFTER. Even some right -wing Christian conservatives, who have returned in sincerity, are angry His relationship with white, describing her views “heresy“Balking in dealing with their religion is like a rich diagyan.

But what is noticeable about the gospel of prosperity and his empty promises of future wealth in exchange for the current deprivation is how exactly it seems like Trump’s excuses and his allies for the economic wreckage that overcomes the United States through unnecessary and unjustified definitions. During the campaign, Trump’s promise, “When I win, I will reduce prices immediately, starting from the first day.” Instead, it does the opposite: imposing a tariff on most of the main commercial partners, which works like a sales tax, which will surely cause inflation, which was diminished in the last year of President Joe Biden’s term, to rise again.
The argument that financial suffering now will lead to wealth at a later time is magic thinking, of the same type that claims the gospel of prosperity. It claims that donating to the special jetting preacher box will inspire God to fill your treasures.
Trump seems almost completely driven by revenge on the Americans for not voting in his favor in the majority, in foreign countries for not kissing his ring enough, and in former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau because he is much better than Trump at all. But the stadium sales that he and his allies at the base make appear to be the same lie full of preaching of prosperity: If you sacrifice with this money now, you will be rewarded with indescribable future wealth.
“The difficult way to do this is exactly what I do,” He told reporters on Tuesday. “The results will be 20 times larger.” Sometimes, he uses expressions such as “a little disorderOr “a transitional period” to describe the pain that it affects the Americans, but it insists that the country will be “rich” because of this. Thursday, published on the social truth“The tariff money flows to the United States,” as if the screaming makes the lie healthier.
The message spread throughout the Trump advertising device to lead the Maga base to see their sudden loss in purchasing power as a necessary victim for future resources. Trade Minister Howard Lootnick admitted The customs tariff may stimulate the recession, but it insisted that it will “deserve all this” because it is supposed to “produce growth”. “No pain, no gain – this is what we used to say our football players,” Senator Tommy Tobreville, Ra La said Exercise, which promotes muscle growth, with sales taxes, which suppress the consumer spending and shrink economy. The Fox News host, Greg Guttfield, also summoned The language of sacrifice, and directing viewers, “do not buy goods” if they do not want to pay the tax. This may not be possible with the necessary goods, such as food and fuel. But even with luxurious elements, the “Do not spend money” message is death for economic growth.
“Stress about egg prices,” The founder of Turning Point Usa Charlie Kirk ledIn an article shared by Trump. Kirk promised his readers that if they were patience only and put their faith in God, eh, Trump A plan, in the end “will put more money in the pockets of ordinary Americans.” “We just ask you to sacrifice for a few long -term prosperity for the United States.” Dan Bongino, Bodcast Maga A host was nominated to be the deputy director of the FBI. “There may be some pain in the beginning, but in the end this to help us all,” Steve Dossos announced from Fox News. Examples are countless, But they all sing the same melody: If you allow Trump to raise your prices now, you will be rewarded with resources in the future.
This is all nonsense, as economists explain with patience. The only thing that happens when the prices are artificially raised is that people spend less, slowing the economy – stagnation, unlike Trump’s “boom”. There is this detailed and mysterious logical basis, which is part of a plan for “manufacturing” back, but this is a lie. When it does not display more customs tariffs on the goods that the Americans depend on, Trump demands the expiry of investments on a large scale In the manufacturing made by the Biden administration. In addition, the threat of definitions makes investors retreat, and he is afraid to open factories in the United States because they have no idea about the cost of working in this volatile environment.
In fact, the argument that financial suffering now will lead to wealth at a later time is magical thinking, of the same type that claims the gospel of prosperity claims that donating to the special jetting preacher box will inspire God to fill your treasures. There is a great overlap between the followers of the Gospel of prosperity and the base of fans in Trump. It is possible that this fact is possible to sell the lies of customs tariffs, assuming – for a good reason – that his main voters are accustomed to calls to ignore reality and a blind belief in their leaders instead. For his most loyal voters, it is not a mistake to believe that they have endless patience due to their separation, which is why many of them are still writing checks to TVs when they cannot pay their bills.
But Trump and his allies may be good in looking at New Pew research shows Christianity She still faces a decrease, as young generations walk from religion. This is not surprising, when the Christian face is increasingly viewers like Paula White. Trump did not win because his support base has grown, but because a large number of voters who have reservations about his personality fell to his wrong promises to reduce prices. Now they are told that they should bear artificial costs and take their belief that they will one day be rewarded for their “sacrifices.” Many people will glow quickly, and realize that they suffer from being deceived. No wonder Republicans have already begun to sweat the midterm elections.
