Trump and COVID

 Recently it was announced that the president has the coronavirus. This is truly a case of pride coming before a fall, or the equivalent notion, of hubris bringing on a downfall, as is talked about at length in Greek mythology.

It will be interesting to see how Trump's most committed followers react to the news. Right now there is just silence, and some crickets. 

I have a feeling it will be like what is talked about in the book When Prophecy Fails. That is, his most fervent followers will become even more fervent, because they will, somehow, see the president's coronavirus as just part of Trump's part in bringing about God's kingdom.
