THE Almighty has confirmed that He personally intervened to save Trump’s life so he could become president and revoke birthright citizenship.
In a rare statement to the media, God has clarified that on July 13th last year He diverted a bullet speeding towards Trump’s head so that he could live, win the election and end automatic citizenship for the children of undocumented immigrants in the US.
The Lord said: “It might not make sense to you now, but do you think Moses leading the tribes of Israel off into the desert did? I move in mysterious ways.
“If you think on a larger, divine scale as I do, sparing Trump was paramount. The benefits of overturning the 14th Amendment may take a few millennia to shake out, but trust me. It’ll be central to my long-awaited third book of the Bible.
“I am not a vainglorious God so I tried not to make it seem too obvious. Nicking him on the ear was a classy touch, if I pronounce it as thus myself. But yes, I delivered him from evil, he is my anointed instrument and prophet, and I am mighty pleased.
“Honestly, we need the birthright thing or the Second Coming won’t get started off right. As usual the Almighty’s playing the long game.”
He added: “Oh, while I’m on, can I clarify about the meek inheriting the Earth? That bit was not to be take literally.”
