Republicans Show Laughable ‘God Made Trump’ Video at MAGA Fyre Fest

Photo Illustration by Victoria Sunday/The Daily Beast/Getty Images Republicans played a dramatic video on the massive jumbotron at their midterm convention that celebrated how “God created Trump.” It came on night two of the Republican convention at the American Airlines Center in Dallas on Thursday.

While the event is meant to rally GOP voters to head to the polls to elect Republicans on Nov.

3, nearly the entire production has been a Trump show.

As the lights dimmed, diehard MAGA supporters in their best Trump gear looked on as the more than two-and-a-half-minute video played overhead, claiming Trump is church-going and able to deliver his own grandchild.

“On June 14th, 1946, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, ‘I need a caretaker,’ so God gave us Trump,” the narrator said as an image of Trump as a young boy appeared on the screen.

“God said, ‘I need somebody willing to get up before dawn, fix this country, work all day, fight the Marxists, eat supper, then go to the Oval Office and stay past midnight at a meeting of the heads of state,’ so God made Trump,” the narrator continued as a series of clips played on the screen.

At the mention of heads of state, the video showed the viral clip of Trump physically pushing past the prime minister of Montenegro at a NATO meeting in 2017 to stand at the front of a group photo.

The video played a day after Trump posted it on his Truth Social page on Wednesday afternoon.

“I need somebody with arms strong enough to wrestle the deep state and yet gentle enough to deliver his own grandchild, somebody to ruffle the feathers, tame cantankerous World Economic Forum, come home hungry, have to wait until the first lady is done with lunch with friends, then tell the ladies to be sure and come back real soon, and mean it,” the narrator continued.

“So God gave us Trump.” First lady Melania Trump was noticeably absent from the convention in Dallas, and she is rarely at the White House, so the brief glimpse of her in the video, including a clip from 2018, was among the few images convention-goers saw over two days.

She also appeared in some of the pictures displayed in the halls in the center.

The video is a nod to Paul Harvey’s speech “So God Made a Farmer,” delivered in 1978 by the radio broadcaster.

It resurfaced in 2013 when Ram Trucks used it in a Super Bowl commercial.

Trump also shared a “God made Trump” video during the 2024 campaign.
