LINK Paula White: the pastor who helps Trump hear 'what God has to say' | US news | The Guardian
The "prosperity gospel" is how christian con-artists get people to send money for the promise of future riches.
"Like many people Trump surrounds himself with, White is a controversial figure. She is alternately described as the woman who “led Trump to Christ” and a “charlatan”. Her Florida ministry and televangelism made her a millionaire, and attracted scrutiny from congressional investigators. Some political observers see the alliance between Trump and the evangelical community as a marriage of convenience: he needs their votes, they need someone to carry out their agenda."

Why does it not surprise me that Trump likes to be made to kneel before a tall blond woman with an authoritative voice and told to worship?

Why is it that the evangelicals of today have forgotten the 7 deadly sins. Greed is definitely one of them. Maybe they are in doubt about immortality and want to grab as much as they can while still here.
