WaPo: ‘Demonic activity was palpable’ at Trump’s rally, pastor says"

A Florida pastor who took his 11-year-old daughter to a campaign-style rally for President Trump said he hoped the event would serve as a civics lesson — but that it turned instead into a spectacle where “demonic activity was palpable.”
Joel Tooley, lead pastor at Melbourne First Church of the Nazarene in eastern Florida, said that when he heard that the president and first lady would be passing through town, he decided to go see them in person.
“I am enough of a sentimentalist that when I found out THEEEE President was coming to town, I got online quickly and reserved two tickets,” he wrote on Facebook.
But the rally last weekend was not what the pastor had in mind.
“As people were coming in, there was a lot of excitement and a strong sense of patriotism,” Tooley wrote.
However, during a rendition of “God Bless the USA,” some attendees began to sing along and raise their hands in an almost religious way.
“People were being ushered into a deeply religious experience,” Tooley wrote, “and it made me completely uncomfortable.
“I love my country; I honor those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom and I respect our history and what we stand for, but what I experienced in that moment sent shivers down my spine. I felt like people were here to worship an ideology along with the man who was leading it. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t the song per se — it was this inexplicable movement that was happening in the room. It was a religious zeal.”
Tooley could not immediately be reached, and the White House did not immediately respond to a request for a comment.

the over the top rhetoric from the Left is nothing more than click bait to their own masses. They do not care about winning back the voters that went for Trump.

Immediately went home and ordered Pizza, I'm guessing...

Pastor must have gotten into a group of Dem protestors outside the rally.

There'll be a healin' session in the big tent following Reverend Tooley's famous snake wranglin' show.

These leftists really do make me smile. Got a good laugh out of this one.
So it's now Russians, Racists, Homophobes, Russians, Satanists are the reason why Hillary lost.

Good for Trump! He has been promoted from Hitler to Satan.

They project everything.
It's an admission that spirit cooking and menerva worship are synonymous with devil worship.

He sounds like Alex Jones.

Just let the pastor know that when good and truth and light are present the devil has his minions working overtime to try and combat it. If he is a man of God he knows the battle.
OH and then it's Florida. Retreats are abundant in Florida for dark side people.

It's true. Trump rallies are full of devil worship symbolism. Trump is a member of the Circle, a secret group of ultra powerful and ultra rich guys who are determined to bring about the apocalypse. They want to clear out most of the people on Earth so that they will have total control and abundance for themselves. That's his connection to Putin, who is also a member.

When I read this post I looked up to see who posted it. At first I thought it was TNBhoy, and I thought, damn, his cheese has finally slid completely off of his cracker.

Perhaps we should send the good minister to a Planned Parenthood clinic and see if he can detect any demonic activity there.

Is the Reverend talking about the protesters in attendance or the supporters of Trump?

Maybe it was the reading of the Lord's Prayer and putting American first instead of trying to stir up wars for Israel that triggered him.

Demonic activity?
Maybe at that schizophrenic women's march, or at the Cal-Berkeley riot. The people who attend Trump rallies are the backbone of America.
