Has anyone considered that maybe Donald Trump is a "real" Christian after all?

"Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect." (Matt 5:44-48).

Haven’t you noticed that no weapon formed against Donald Trump has prospered? Why would that be?

Isaiah 54
17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,
And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 717). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Every time Donald Trump says, "I love you!" to a crowd, I am reminded when Jesus said:

John 13
34 “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
35 “By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1047). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Donald Trump is a shrewd business man and a politician, I do not hear the voice of God when he speaks. Lets keep our perspective here.

I do not suffer from TDS. He isn't my first choice, but the establishment over-reaction to him is beyond the pale and makes me very sympathetic.

But the over-the-top expressions of support that I'm reading from some Trump supporters is beginning to scare the h3ck out of me.

I've seen this before and I didn't like it then either. For example:
