John #Hagee is the founder and leader of
🔸Christians United for Israel, 🔸
which boasts 10 million members
-- more than the total population of American Jews.
#CUI was founded in 2006 after the publication of Hagee’s book “Jerusalem Countdown,”
which asserts that a U.S.-Israel war against Iran is both biblically prophesied and necessary to bring about the battle of #Armageddon and the Second Coming.
Two years later, John McCain rejected Hagee’s endorsement in the 2008 presidential campaign, after a sermon of Hagee’s surfaced describing Hitler as fulfilling God's will by hastening the return of Jews to Israel. 
But Hagee is just one figure in the still-poorly-understood #Christian #dominionist movement that’s supporting Trump and MAGA Republicans in general.
Their goal is to remake America into a right-wing Christian #theocracy.

Canadian scholar André Gagné’s recent book “American Evangelicals for Trump: Dominion, Spiritual Warfare, and the End Times” does much to explain the #evangelical wing of that movement, known as the
🔸New Apostolic Reformation🔸, drawing on its own own words. 
Three high-profile NAR leaders
— Lance #Wallnau, Paula #White-#Cain and Dutch #Sheets
— were intimately involved in bringing Trump to power,
supporting him and then
fighting to keep him in power after the 2020 election.
They're just the tip of the iceberg.
Since 2020, Gen. Michael #Flynn, Trump’s short-lived national security adviser, has been a co-leader of the
“ReAwaken America Tour,”
which is connected to multiple NAR figures, as Jennifer Cohn reported in 2022.
Just this month, Salon contributor Frederick Clarkson of Political Research Associates reported on Wallnau’s latest political venture, dubbed the
“Courage Tour,” which targets 19 counties that “are going to determine the future of America.”
