“A POPULAR Co Clare priest, who made headlines after saying there a place reserved in heaven for Donald Trump, has sadly passed away.

Father Joe Haugh served as a priest in the Diocese of Killaloe for 63 happy years.”

Irish Post

White American evangelicals aren’t the only religious screwballs who think Donald Trump is a messiah anointed by the Almighty to make America great.

Irish Father Joe Haugh proclaimed that there was a place reserved in heaven for Trump when he met him at his Doonbeg hotel and golf resort. Methinks the priest was speaking more as a politician than a theologian seeing as how the resort provided much-needed jobs as well as a significant boost to tourism.

The fact that Haugh’s conviction that Trump was going to heaven made headlines is a testament to the fact that there’s a lot less religious nutjobs in Ireland than there are in the United States.

Haugh, 87, was most likely suffering from dementia or drunk when he spoke his ill-fated words, what excuse do American evangelicals have?

I’m not a theologian or a politician, but I’m quite sure there’s a special place reserved in hell for Father Haugh and Donald Trump.
