I can't think of any recent public figure who loves his life more than Donald Trump. His entire life has been about stealing enough money to *live deliciously,* as the Bible terms it (Revelation 18:7).
He would destroy anybody or anything to keep his soft clothes and King's houses. In this regard, he inverts Caiaphas' prophecy:
It is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
Trump is willing that a whole nation should perish for one man: himself. That is the measure of how much he loves his delicious life.
Now that his delicious life is in jeopardy, does he calculate the wages of sin his soft life has cost?
Does he repent like Nebuchadnezzar?
No.
The best thing for Trump would be if he were to be beaten with many stripes or lashed with a cane until he came to senses and begged God for mercy for the sake of Christ. This won't happen. He will run out the clock of his delicious life with legal ploys funded by his gullible followers.
And then he will die in his sin.
