'God Had Had Enough': Chris McDonald Says God Killed Rep. Elijah Cummings for Opposing Trump

Right-wing commentator and radical(link is external) conspiracy(link is external) theorist(link is external) Chris McDonald streamed a special edition(link is external) of his "The MC Files" program this morning in response to the news(link is external) that Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings had died. McDonald and his guest, Maryland pastor Stacey Shiflett(link is external), spent the entire program attacking Cummings as corrupt, unbiblical, and ungodly, and asserting that God had taken his life because of his opposition to President Donald Trump.

"We know the Bible," McDonald said(link is external). "You've got a leader that has been in office for over 30 years, that opened the door on unfettered abortion in this country. His civil rights icon status was a joke because he did nothing to bring rights to his people; all he did was divide, all he did was play the race card."

McDonald said that Cummings was a corrupt and lawless leader who waged "a cooked, deceptive, demonic attempt" to take down Trump.

"Everything that he's done has been nothing but trying to take this president out," he said. "I believe that God had had enough, and God moved."
