The Conundrum of Trump and the Confirmation of an ‘Invisible Hand’.

“While you were watching, a rock was cut out, BUT NOT BY HUMAN HANDS. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. ” - (Daniel 2:34)

The political rise and ascendancy of the US presidential hopeful and republican candidate, Donald J. Trump, has been a puzzle to many Americans and the entire world. There appears to be no logical explanation to unravel the mystery behind his growing popularity and acceptance by the American populace.

I am not a prophet, and neither am I an eschatologist, but anybody who does not understand that the outcome of this US election will play a crucial role in shaping the future direction of the world politics and its subsequent implementations of the ‘one world government’ agenda, will need a form of guidance.

In some past fora, I had argued that if Hillary wins then know that it will be a government of continuity in America with all its attendant “evils” across the globe – increase in terrorism, crisis in the 3rd world countries, influx of Muslim refugees in Europe and subsequent spread of Islam across the globe – which appears to be the tool that will be used by the governing ‘forces’ in America to weaken nations and fastrack the achievement of the New World Order.

However, if Trump wins then know that the Almighty God who “rules over the affairs of the kingdom of men…who sets up king and deposes them” still want to delay the agenda of the evil forces ruling America and the world at large. Mind you, the agenda would just being delayed, but not destroyed, as it must surely come to pass as prophesied by the Daniel of old.

Trump who have been showcasing what many would call an “uncouth” personality with a “crude” behaviour right from the days of the republican primaries had never given a damn on what people think of his attitude.

Now in a bid to stop him, the incumbent Obama administration had employed every necessary means to undermine him. At a point the world’s major media houses such as the CNN, BBC, Washington Post, New York Times etc. all conspired to be reporting the negative aspects of Trump; and inadvertently passing a clean bill of health on his opponent, Hillary Clinton.

Also all the former living Presidents of the United States, including the Bush family from his party, have reportedly rejected him.

Even the intellectual community was not left out, as over 70 Nobel Laureates, recently, denounced the Donald Trump’s candidacy.

Our own Wole Soyinka too, who is the only Nigeria Nobel laureate, has threatened to destroy his green card and leave US if Trump wins the election.

But in all this, the popularity of Trump has continue to soar, even as he is currently leading in almost all the recently organized online polls including those organized by the “liberal” media houses – a situation which indicates the role of an “invisible hand” in the entire scenario.

An atheist and world renowned scientist, prof. Stephen Hawkings, who has one of the highest IQs in the world, was once asked to explain the rationale behind Donald Trump’s rising profile, and he simply replied, “I can’t.” He only likened Donald Trump to a “demagogue” who appeals to the “common denominator.”
