‘Demonic activity was palpable’ at Trump’s rally, pastor says [Barf Alert]
Washington Compost ^ | 2/22/17 | Lindsey Bever

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.

The demonic realm is aligned against Trump. Not for him.

Not really 'Fake News' - This is simply ‘Non News’ muttering and rambling by the so called journalist.

Just an liberal’s faux journalist’s wet random druggy dreams posing as fake news.

"So in conclusion: This is not even fake news! It's ‘Non News’!

“People were being ushered into a deeply religious experience,”

As a religious person this is a concern of his?

When is the last time the Compost ever reported on purported “Demonic Activity”?

I suspect this is actually the first time.

This was from the other day, and it was found out that this Pastor was a Never Trumper and I have NO IDEA why he would bother to attend...other than to take up space that a Trump Supporter would have loved to have...

I thought that was pretty hypocritical of the priest. People were being ushered into a deeply religious experience when they were in a group asking God to bless the USA?

I’m sure the pastor has not once ever led his congregation to pray for the country, or a congregation member in particular, or anything.

Hypocrite.
