Pat Robertson Shares Bonkers Message From God And Twitter Users Raise Holy Hell

The televangelist peers into the future and it gets really dark in a hurry.

TV preacher Pat Robertson says God told him that President Donald Trump will win reelection.

Oh, and the world’s going to end, probably via an asteroid strike. 

“Without question, Trump is going to win the election,” Robertson declared on “The 700 Club” on Tuesday, citing his conversation with the deity. “He’s going to win, that I think’s a given.” 

Despite God telling Robertson the election was in the bag, he urged his followers to vote anyway. However, Robertson didn’t exactly give them a great incentive for choosing Trump considering what supposedly happens during his second term. 

Robertson said the inauguration would be followed by global strife, widespread “civic disobedience that will be mind-boggling” in the U.S. and at least two assassination attempts. 

“The country will be torn apart,” Robertson said, then he went off on some biblical prophecy stuff, claiming there would be a period of war involving Israel, followed by at least five years of “extraordinary peace.” 

After that, better book the next flight off the planet because that’s when it all goes kaboom. 

“There’s going to be a great tribulation,” Robertson said, predicting an asteroid strike right down to the size of the space rock:

God has an iffy history with presidential predictions, at least in terms of the ones He reportedly shared with Robertson. In 2004, the televangelist said God told him then-President George W. Bush would be reelected , yet claimed God said Mitt Romney would beat then-President Barack Obama in 2012 and serve two terms

Robertson also famously predicted “a judgment on the world” in the fall of 1982, followed years later by a highly specific ending date of April 29, 2007 . By all accounts both predictions were incorrect. 

Robertson’s latest attempt at sharing a message from his deity got the treatment on Twitter:
