Madonna Says She Offered To Devote Life to God While Praying Trump Would Lose On Election Night
Daily Mail ^ | 10:54 EST, 11 January 2017 | Chris Spargo

Madonna said in a new interview that she turned to a higher power the night of the election hoping that it would help Hillary Clinton defeat Donald Trump.

'On election night I was sitting at a table with my agent, who is also one of my very best friends, and we were truly praying. We were praying,' revealed the singer in the February issue of Harper's Bazaar.

'It was just like watching a horror show. And then she was reading from the Quran, and I was reading from the Zohar,' said Madonna, referring to the collection of stories about Jewish mysticism that is central to the Kabbalah.

'We were doing everything: lighting candles, meditating, praying, offering our lives to God forever, if only.'

In the end, Clinton did not defeat Trump, and months later Madonna is still struggling to accept that reality.

'It's like being dumped by a lover and also being stuck in a nightmare,' said Madonna.

Madonna said that her difficulty accepting Trump's win began the night of the election, and that she finds it more difficult to deal with her new reality in the morning.

'I went to sleep, and since that night, I wake up every morning and it's like when you break up with somebody who has really broken your heart,' explained Madonna.

'You wake up and for a second you're just you, and then you go, "Oh, the person I love more than anything has just broken my heart, and I'm devastated and I'm broken and I have nothing. I'm lost."'

The singer also said she finds herself saying each day: 'Wait a second. Donald Trump is the president. It's not a bad dream. It really happened.'

When’s the last time she’s been responsible for any popular music? Trading off of the Madonna of 20, 30 years ago even there, just like with her physical person. Not that it was all that even then, but still.

Wouldn’t this be an example of tempting God?

Let’s see ... Dear God, if you let this lotto ticket be a grand prize winner, I’ll go to Church and tell everyone you’re an Ok guy!

Uh-Huh .....

'It's like being stuck in a nightmare'

You just cannot make this sh*t up. Hey Madonna: Most of America has been stuck in a nightmare for the past 8 years! Why do you think Trump won??

To quote Barack Hussein Obama in 2009: "We won, you lost. Get over it!" Do us all a favor, "Madge", and move back to the UK.

Madonna after promising blowjobs to Hillary voters says she offered to devote her life to God while praying Trump would lose on election night.

I thought she was a singer. Did she change careers? Is she a comedienne now?

I am reminded of the story of Job.

Job was a righteous man, but God allowed a plethora of disasters to descend upon him (orchestrated by Satan).

After having family members killed in a storm, his animals stolen by raiders, his body covered with sores and his supportive wife suggesting he “curse God and die”, he dresses in sack cloth and covers himself in ashes. He doesn’t question God’s motivations, he just asks that God’s will be done.

Then come his friends with various suggestions as to why this calamity has befallen him - he sinned, his father sinner, etc, etc. - but still Job doesn’t question God.

Finally, after all that, Job prays to heaven, “Why me?”

God answers him with “Where were you when I created the universe.”

I always think of this when I am tempted to bargain with God - if You do this, I’ll do that. He just chuckles and says “who do you think you are that you can bargain with Me?”

Prayer is different and there are places in the Bible that say “you don’t receive because you haven’t asked” but praying for intersession isn’t the same as a quid pro quo bargain.

To ALL-

MORE FAKE NEWS!!—

She has NEVER EVER prayed to God- how can I tell?

She calls herself “Madonna” to mock Christ and God-

And by her perverted announcements- cursing the good
and embracing Evil and darkness-

A Whore to the Evil one, she has NOT repented
and is happy to curse Christians everywhere

(I guess we should pray for her conversion-
Darn!- having good Christian thoughts... is tough for this one)

God gave her exactly what she needed, not what she wanted.

Well, we do know that she earned her captain's bars as a mattress pilot.

The phrase “Sweating like a whore in church” comes to mind.

I bet she was relieved she didn’t have to keep that promise.
