In the process of preparing for another trial, former President Donald Trump shared an unexpected source of inspiration, which predictably blew the roof off the mainstream media.
The suit against Trump for allegedly paying porn star Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, hush money while he was a presidential candidate in 2016, has now been pushed back to the month of April. It is being reported that jury selection will begin Apr. 15.

In addition, Trump and his team also received some welcomed news from an appellate court on Monday.
As reported by Newsweek:
Trump faced a Monday deadline to pay the $454 million fine or post bond in his business fraud case after Judge Arthur Engoron in February ordered him to pay $355 million after siding with New York Attorney General Letitia James in a civil suit. The payment shot up past $450 million with interest.
[The appeals court] reduced his bond to $175 million dollars, substantially lower than the $454 million bond ordered by Judge Engoron, and gave him 10 more days to pay those funds.
Meanwhile, Trump shared on his social media platform Truth Social an inspiring message that was sent to him by an unnamed source.
Due to the message mentioning the persecution of Christ during Holy Week and Trump enduring trials around the same time, a media storm of accusations claims that Trump is comparing himself to Jesus.
While some argue that Trump’s legal woes are self-inflicted, many of his supporters believe there is a political witch hunt taking place against the former president to keep him out of the White House.
The majority of the post comes from Psalm 109:3-8, which is a “Plea for Judgment of False Accusers.” Trump has claimed to be fighting similar persecution from the inception of his legal problems.
Trump has already garnered one major victory against Daniels and the charges she has levied against him which Trump has categorically denied.
As reported by CNN:
The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals sided with the former president in his effort to recoup additional legal fees from adult film star Stormy Daniels, who had filed and lost a defamation suit against him.
Daniels was ordered to pay Trump’s attorneys just over $120,000 in legal fees. That’s on top of the more than $500,000 in court-ordered payments to Trump attorneys she’s already been ordered to pay.
Nevermind the fact that Trump only shared what someone else had sent to him, which was largely verses of Scripture, but this current news cycle highlights the insanity that awaits us through the 2024 election season and beyond, should Trump retake the White House.
In the meantime, pray for all parties in American government and those running for office. What America needs right now is righteous leadership that is willing to repent for the sins of this nation and act in a biblically moral fashion.
