Truth be told, I actually wasn’t going to do a Friday Fun because I’ve been gloomy about the election.  (Although it now looks like we might very well have a LANDSIDE Electoral College victory!)

But then, courtesy of Right Wing Watch, I came across Trump’s “spiritual advisor” – Paula White – leading a prayer to turn the results around to make him win.  I wanted to make sure to share with you guys & gals how far off the tracks the Trump Train has gone.

Those not familiar with Paula White, a talibangelical christianist and Grifter-Supreme, of course she has a very scandalous background – including multiple marriages, bankruptcies and having her “church” investigated by the Senate Finance Committee from 2007 through 2011.  Is it any wonder Trump would pick her as an “advisor”?

 

Oh, and if you want to scroll through some views of her $1.1+ MILLION home in Florida (naturally), be my guest:

Back to the “prayer” – I did find a Transcript of what she was saying:

White is heard saying:

“Strike, strike, strike until you have victory, for every enemy that is aligned against you, let there be that we would strike the ground for you will give us victory, God.

“I hear a sound of an abundance of rain, I hear a sound of victory, I hear a sound of shouting and singing, I hear a sound of victory.

White repeats the “I hear a sound of an abundance of rain, I hear a sound of victory,” a couple of times and then says: “The Lord says it is done, the Lord says it is done, the Lord says it is done.

“For I hear victory, victory, victory, victory in the quarters of heaven, in the quarters of heaven I hear victory…

“For angels are being released right now, angels are being dispatched right now, [speaks in tongues] for angels have even been dispatched from Africa right now, Africa right now, Africa right now, they’re coming here, they’re coming here in the name of Jesus, from South America, they’re coming here…”

As you can imagine, there are literally dozens and dozens of music remixes to her “supplication” – which all are lost on me.  So I’ll stick to the ones that have a visual impact.

While most cats were incredulous …

There was one who definitely was feeling the beat …

While lots of people are trying to figure out who the guy carrying a bathrobe and reading a newspaper walking behind White was doing, this is the longest clip (at the end) that I was able to find of him:

Saving the best for last, someone decided to improve on White’s hammering away during her “pleadings”:

“Pray” all you want Paula – to quote a certain someone: “It is what it is.”

  1. Actually there were a whole heck of a lot more “strike”s than that – I thought she was never going to stop. I’m glad no one tried to transscribe the “speaking in tongues” part, which I have to grant did sound like she was summoning demons. The transcription does hint at the amount of repetition, but I’m not sure any transcript would do it justice.

    Incidentally, this is the woman who told her “flock” they were doomed if they didn’t send her $100,000.00 right awat. I’m sure she’s where Martha McSally got the idea of telling her supporters to fast a meal and send her the money.

    Also, though I don’t want to go into deep detail, there is an actual theology about speaking in tongues, and it is not a totally illegitimate practice. But it’s really not supposed to be done publicly, exactly because it is so easy to counterfeit. So she is doing it all wrong.

    Thank you, Nameless, for the very appropriate and very effective mockery.

    • Of course, it’s not White’s 1st, 2nd or even 99th grifting attempt.
      I didn’t include it, but I did get a kick out of her Bee Twaddle Twirling:

  2. Great material, Nameless, especially the meme taken from ‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest’.

    The hilarious white cat nodding to the rhythm of Paula White’s prayer(?) made it to the Ozzie ABC late news yesterday evening here. First I thought it was some sort of satanic ritual by a desperate fan to push Trump over the finish line – because what do I know as an Atheist – but it turned out to be the prayer of Trump’s spiritual adviser.

    So a satanic ritual after all?

  3. White — what a piece of work she is!  Nuttier than a fruit cake!

    And One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest — perfect for Trump!

  4. White is off the charts…as in cra, craaaa….
    Loved the cat w/the beat..and the Jack Nicholson quote.
    Great post, and laughs to the end. 

    Thank you, Nameless for posting. 

  5. Nameless, it’s not hard to understand.  Democrats and authentic Christians pray FOR others out of LOVE.  Republican pseudo-Christians (the opposite of authentic Christians) prey ON others out of HATE! 10

  6. I can’t stop laughing at tRump’s spiritual advisor, but today (Saturday) it doesn’t matter since tis a Beautiful Day and I am Walking on Sunshine…..waiting for the future President Biden and VP Harris to speak tonight

  7. Thanks Nameless–she is hard to stomach and perhaps a sanitarium in Russia with rain is the future she brought him to be safe from supoenas and debt collectors.

  8. Well, I (for one) am excited to see what those African/South American angels are wearing these days!  Golden girdles?  Silver slippers?  

    Truly, this woman is the classical definition of Archie Bunker’s old term….DINGBAT!

    Congratulations to all of us….hasn’t this been a joyous day?

  9. Spiritual advisor??? She sure doesn’t seem like one who’d be a benefit to listen to for any type of advice. 
    I did watch Steve Colbert friday night show this morning and he was showing parts of what he aired on his Showtime show too.  It happened to have this wacho white on it. 
    I like the two different videos with the Cats; especially the one keeping up with the beat. 
    Plus the one with white beating tRump on the head, into the ground.
    Then the ones of tRump sitting in prison…hopefully that will be where he ends up.
    Enjoyed. Thanks Nameless

  10. I came across this piece of updated news, and I felt sure you would want to know about it.
