'There are signs': Tucker Carlson explains why Trump 'could be' the Antichrist
Right-wing host Tucker Carlson explained that "there are signs" that suggest President Donald Trump "could be" the Antichrist.
After Trump posted an image of Jesus, Carlson insisted that the president was "mocking Jesus."
"He's making fun of Christianity," the right-wing host said on his Thursday show. "The central figure of the religion is being held up for mockery."
"One day, he says, yeah, I did it. Next day he says, no, I didn't do it. Both are on video," Carlson pointed out. "That's not really a lie, it's more than a lie, it's bigger than a lie. It's an attack not just on a specific set of facts, it's an attack on the idea that there are facts. It's an attack on truth, openly. No one's hiding this."
Carlson read passages from the Bible, hoping to make sense of Trump's attack on religion.
"The first is from Paul's second letter to the Thessalonians, the church is Thessalonica," he remarked. "And he says, you're going to hear that Jesus is coming back. Don't believe what you hear. A bunch of things have to happen before he returns to Earth, redeems the world, history ends. And you'll know that he's coming by these events. And among them will be the rise of a figure he describes as the man of lawlessness, sometimes describes as the Antichrist, but the man of lawlessness is the phrase from his second letter to the Thessalonians."
"And he says this," he continued. "There will be a great rebellion against God, led by that man of lawlessness. This man, quote, will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshipped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple, proclaiming himself to be God. He will pose as God. He will mock other gods and put himself in their place."
Carlson also presented a verse from the book of Daniel, which predicted: "a king who will do as he pleases."
"He will exalt and magnify himself above every God," he read, "and will say unheard-of things against the God of Gods. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed, for what has been determined must take place."
"Here's a leader who's mocking the gods of his ancestors," Carlson added. "Could this be the Antichrist? Well, who knows? At least that's my conclusion. Who knows?"
"But we're also told there are signs and is this one of them? ... But that's clearly what this is. This is mockery of God by a temporal leader, by a man. This is the leader of our country saying, I will take no instruction from God because, as he showed in the first meme, I am God."
