US Presidents are chosen by the people and not divinely appointed

Harsh truth deserves attention

I cannot believe there are still people who claim that God chose Donald Trump to be president. If that were true, then who chose Joe Biden, Obama and all previous presidents? How can sane adults exhibit such tunnel vision they overlook obvious facts?

The truth is, America has a voting system with two major parties. Sometimes, more U.S. citizens vote Republican, and in other elections, more people vote Democrat. Among the voters are atheists, agnostics, and individuals with diverse belief systems who are not Christian. So tell me again how Donald Trump was divinely appointed.

Americans cast votes-the Almighty did not

Some people interviewed after the election mentioned that they did not want to vote for Trump but couldn't see themselves voting for Kamala Harris. No disrespect intended to anyone, but Biden, in an attempt to appear progressive, shot himself in the foot when he chose Harris as his female running mate.

When he stepped down and his Vice President ran on the Democratic ticket, many Americans were not ready for a female president. Although no one admitted it there are still American voters who have problems with candidates of color.

Harris was both Asian and African American. Additionally, Kamala's views on abortion caused some voters to shift their support to Trump who ran anti-abortion ticket.

Free will determines presidents

Now, many Trump supporters are expressing regret over their vote. Of they believed God put The Donald in office, then why are they second guessing their actions? It's because Trump has cut programs that help the poor and needy, and has led to job losses for many Americans, including his supporters.

Returning to the main point, U.S. voters cast individual ballots and make personal choices. Christians who claim God chose Trump should understand the voting process. Every day, individuals around the world exercise their free will and decide whether they believe Jesus Christ died for their sins.

Human hands or Divine intervention

The Bible is filled with stories where God intervened to place kings on the throne or remove them. This is not the American way. People vote based on their intellect, will, emotions, and conscience. The Creator allows free will and does not force anyone to voteone way or another.

U.S. presidents are meant to govern all people. In the interest of every American citizen, they may face tough choices and make decisions that are not necessarily aligned with biblical teachings. The current administration has made choices that adversely affect those who need assistance the most.

Trump supporters are affected by his decisions

The Bible teaches us to care for strangers in the land and to look out for the poor, widows, and orphans. Decisions made by the current administration are harming immigrants and those in need in our nation.

Studies continue to show that the Americans most affected by the cuts in j0obs and services have been supporters of MAGA. So again, I ask: how is any of this coming from heaven above?

In 2028, Americans will vote again, assuming the world is still standing. Donald Trump's approval ratings are decreasing, especially among his supporters.

It's likely that if the Americans become fed up with the current administration and the lack of transparency with the Jeffrey Epstein files they will not support Republicans in the next election.

The will of the American people prevails

If Democrats can find a suitable candidate, that person might be elected as the next President of the United States, because the will of the majority ruled and ultimately prevails.

Human beings often resist harsh truths and tend to cling to their views, even when they are wrong. Can a president be influenced by their faith and submit to the God they believe in? Yes.

Does God communicate with American voters to indicate a specific candidate should be in office? Possibly but not across the board. Still there are Americans who continue to insist God chose Donald Trump as US president.
