“Preserve, O God, our holy Orthodox Tsar....”
Especially since we are not in 19th century Russia, I like the version of the Troparion of the Holy Cross we use in the OCA:
Troparion of the Holy Cross, Tone I:
O Lord, save your people,
and bless your inheritance!
Grant victory to the Orthodox Christians
over their adversaries,
and by virtue of your cross,
preserve your habitation.
This is normally taken to refer to victory over the demons! However, in Trump’s last campaign ad, he says (pointing out from the screen) that the only force strong enough to stop the NWO is “YOU”!!!!

At least, after 1/20/17, I will be able to pray for the President in Divine Liturgy. I don’t know if my Serbian Priest (who stopped this prayer after the NATO bombing) will be able to do so.
Christ is Born! Glorify Him!!!!
