The end times are coming and the MAGAts missed the Jesus Train

Are these the end times?

Scripture says the end times would be marked by the arrival of a false prophet who would seduce millions of the faithful to abandon the way of Christ and follow him.

That certainly seems to be happening. In fact, if you took President Lucifer, sat him down, parted that demonic comb-over and checked, you’d probably find the Mark of the Beast, a 666, inscribed in his scalp – although in his case it would be a 333 seeing as how he’s such a halfwit.

What I want to know is, how are the MAGAts going to explain it when the Rapture occurs and they’re all still here? It would almost be worth remaining on Earth to see the expression on their faces when they look around and realize the Jesus Train has left the station and THEY are not aboard.

MAGAts … you got some ’splainin’ to do.

As an addendum, Stone is single, kills tomatoes and morning glories with ruthless efficiency, once tied the stem of a cocktail cherry in a knot with his tongue, and carries a permanent scar on his chest after having been shot with a paintball gun. He’s in his 60s as of this writing but doesn’t look a day over 94.
