5. Exodus

7 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go down, because your people, whom you brought up out of Egypt, have become corrupt. 8 They have been quick to turn away from what I commanded them and have made themselves an idol cast in the shape of a calf. They have bowed down to it and sacrificed to it and have said, ‘These are your gods, Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.’

7. MaddowBlog-Trump celebrates unveiling of 22-foot Don Colossus statue at Miami-area golf course

As literal idolization of Trump takes an exceedingly creepy turn, it’s hard not to notice the president’s preoccupation with giant statues of himself.

The New York Times published a curious item in early February, highlighting something called Don Colossus — an enormous bronze statue in honor of Donald Trump featuring a thick layer of gold leaf.....

The article added that the cryptocurrency investors hoped the statue would soon be installed at one of the president’s Florida golf courses. Evidently, they got their wish. The Daily Beast reported:

A bizarre unveiling of a 22-foot golden statue of President Donald Trump has taken place at one of his golf clubs — complete with a dedication from an evangelical pastor. […]

The ceremony was led by Pastor Mark Burns, who has been a member of Pastors for Trump since 2023 and is seen as the president’s informal spiritual adviser. The White House insists it has not been involved in the project, but Burns said Trump called him and addressed the crowd directly.

About a month after Trump left the White House after his 2020 defeat, the then-former president spoke at a Conservative Political Action Conference, which was notable in large part because it featured a golden statue of him that was wheeled around, to the delight of attendees.

More than five years later, however, Don Colossus is far larger; it’s found a permanent home at a Trump-owned property; and it’s received the president’s direct blessing — complete with promotion on his social media platform and a call into last week’s dedication ceremony, led in part by MAGA religious leaders.

Gas is .56 a gallon

Let's check in on what the president is working on today:

It was hard not to wonder how many attendees were familiar with the biblical story of the golden calf, those who worshipped it and how the story in the Book of Exodus ended. (For his part, Burns insisted online, “Let me be clear: this is not a golden calf.” He similarly rejected the idea in a recent interview that the golden Trump statue should be seen as an “idol.” That said, once someone reaches the point at which such a denial is necessary, they’ve pretty much lost the debate.)...

It led New York magazine’s Margaret Hartmann to note, “It says a lot about our current president that in response to the news that a giant gold statue of Donald Trump was dedicated this week, you have to ask, ‘Which one?’”

8. Nero's Colossus

Nero's bronze was a bit shorter than the Statue of Liberty with eventually a spiked crown of glory. I had one of those factoids rattling around that the people had toppled this statue, but not so. The worst damage was that this statue(moved by scores of elephants in 120 AD from the center of Nero's private villa gigantically built over the ruins of the great fire) was Commodus replacing the head for his own. It stood outside the Coliseum, named probably for the statue, for hundreds of years and now only its base remains.

The hand too is raised. Modern style the fist and raised head is defiant personal power. After a while it no longer needed protection. Despite history written by Nero's enemies he held some popularity and a valuable monument was adopted by "tradition". Not even Christians destroyed this equivalent of Circus Auschwitz. However, America is really too stupid to put up with this joking horror show? Trump is dumber than Nero, less successful, less opposed by dangerous enemies, a worse narcissist, OLDER and rotting, a worse entertainer, a bigger tool for elites and foreign interests, a partner not a destroyer of Israel, a perverted subverter not a scape-goater of Christians. Very likely a bigger coward and greedier too. Nero- who was identified by the Book of Revelation as the Antichrist, or symbol thereof.

The CINOs surrounding our god Emperor are bigger suck-ups than the Vestal Virgins, and Jesus is not amused.
