Critics are taking Donald Trump back to Sunday school after he made a bizarre claim about Jesus during his latest interview with Phil McGraw, aka TV’s ‘Dr. Phil.”
The former president attacked California for its expansive vote-by-mail program, which he falsely claimed would lead to voter fraud, and insisted without evidence that he would have won the state if not for that alleged fraud.
“I guarantee you, if Jesus came down and was the vote counter, I would win California,” he said. “In other words, if we had an honest vote counter, a really honest vote counter, I’m doing great with the Hispanics, great, I mean, I had a level that no other Republican has ever reached, but if we had an honest vote counter had, I would win California.”
No Republican presidential candidate has won deep-blue California since President George HW Bush in 1988. Trump lost California by about 30 percentage points in both 2016 and 2020.
The Kamala Harris campaign released a statement saying Trump “reached a level of delusion beyond even Dr. Phil was difficult to diagnose.”
