“I think Barack knew that he had God-given talents that were extraordinary. He knows exactly how smart he is. . . . He knows how perceptive he is. He knows what a good reader of people he is. And he knows that he has the ability — the extraordinary, uncanny ability — to take a thousand different perspectives, digest them and make sense out of them, and I think that he has never really been challenged intellectually. . . . So what I sensed in him was not just a restless spirit but somebody with such extraordinary talents that had to be really taxed in order for him to be happy. . . . He’s been bored to death his whole life.He’s just too talented to do what ordinary people do.”

There are only about 5 folks on earth who could qualify for THE [John said there are many!] Anti-Christ if he is to be truly a world affecting ‘phenom’ and of this earth! Putin, head of the UN, A Pope, our POTUS, head of China. Maybe head of large middle eastern nation, although they would not really CONTROL the world, just AFFECT it.
Stuff going on now [1967 was THE important marker] suggest he [IT] is here right now.
Two words: Cult leader. Charles Manson’s coterie thought the same of him–so they committed mass murders for him, happily. Which brings us back to Hitler…
…the most infamous cult leader of a nation, ere now.
Is just being there?
In other words one might classify such an egotist as “Assh0le”, might one not?
