So far as I know, there is no reason to think that Trump believes in the prosperity gospel. He wants the people who do to follow him, but I would be surprised if he believes in anything at all (including religion, philosophy, physics, and other human beings).
Why does anyone vote for this man to represent them? He never has and he never will. He just does whatever he’s told by whichever Republican leader scares him the most.
An awful lot of politicians want Trump gone, but none of them want to actually do anything about it. Congress has the power to impeach and remove him, but they all want the cabinet to invoke the 25th so they don’t have to take any responsibility. Any, of course, they know there’s no chance of this cabinet doing that anyway.
