PCG's Fawning over Republican President on Alledged Eve of America's Doom

So often PCG's 1% preach doom and gloom about so many things but somehow one ceremonial car ride of the President prompts PCG's 1% produce a fawning paean to President Trump. The PCG leadership heavily favors the Republican Party when discussing political matters.

After two weeks of victories, United States President Donald Trump took a victory lap, literally. ...

With the crowd bellowing familiar chants of “U.S.A., U.S.A.” and “Four more years!” the president again took to the beast and led the pace lap. The president even picked up a radio and spoke directly to the drivers and pit crews. ...

The president is basking in a supreme moment of success. (Callum Wood, NASCAR and the Supreme Moment of Success, February 21, 2020.)

Considering that PCG also teaches that the United States will soon by conquered by a German led European Empire very soon one would have thought that PCG's 1% would not be so enraptured by the sight of their preferred president making an appearance in Florida.

It should be apparent to everyone by now that the Armstrong prophetic model has failed miserably. Nevertheless, it is painfully obvious to me that the country which I have loved and served for so long is in serious jeopardy. Trump is the culmination and personification of so many problems with the great democratic republic known as the United States of America.
Over many years, Congress has given over more and more of its powers to the president. Under Trump, we have the spectacle of the Senate covering up and condoning his sins and abdicating its last significant power - the purse. Like the Roman emperors of old, Trump has succeeded in making himself synonymous with the state and above the laws that govern the rest of us. He has succeeded in subverting an independent judiciary and has rigged the system to perpetuate himself in office. Congress has made itself an irrelevant rubber stamp for executive actions.
What have the Democrats done? They have failed at every attempt to rein in this lawless man and are now poised to nominate a self-described socialist to face him in the next election! It appears to me that Trump will now be reelected and the constitutional republic will be finished. Like the Roman republic which preceded it, it will continue to be known as the United States of America. Nevertheless, it will have ceased to be the nation which I pledged my allegiance to as a child and whose army I honorably served in as an adult! A German/European conquest is completely unnecessary - we've destroyed ourselves.

Fall of Berlin Wall NOT Proof HWA was Right

It is often asserted that the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 proved that HWA was right and he really did see the future.

This of course is nonsense. Herbert W. Armstrong said that Christ would return within twenty years in his book Mystery of the Ages. (PCG has since deleted those words so someone in there knows HWA spoke nonsense.) How convenient for them to forget this.

Also Herbert W. Armstrong never said the Soviet Union would collapse. He thought it would survive intact until a few years after Christ's return. It shows how biased some many in the COGs are that they never seem to notice this. This inconvenient truth is just tossed into the memory hole.

It is true that HWA said that some Eastern European states would break away from Moscow's orbit and join the European Empire he said would arise at any moment. But he never talked of the Soviet Union collapsing. He did not teach that. Also he portrayed the rise of the European Empire to be far quicker then what has actually happened. In Mystery of the Ages Christ was supposed to return by 2005 at the most.

So assertions that the fall of the Berlin Wall somehow prove that HWA was right is just complete nonsense spread by people who, for whatever reason, are still in denial that HWA was a false prophet who merely talked out of his own "human reasoning".

Truth about Roderick C. Meredith

What sort of man is he? A man who could say things like this.

"Mr. Armstrong has reminded us again that we are to disfellowship any members who attend GTA's [Garner Ted Armstrong's] campaigns, church services or other meetings. Some of our weaker members apparently do not realize that this man is in direct rebellion against God and His government! We must not allow them, or ourselves, to rationalize about this matter, to try to "help the underdog," or in any other way lend support to one whose gross immorality, whose long standing "play acting" and hypocrisy, and whose direct insubordination to the Government of God has long been and is now a source of confusion and DIVISION among God's people. So, as per Mr. Armstrong's instruction, I charge and exhort every one of you faithful ministers of the living Christ to explain this in no uncertain terms to your members, to warn them about this cause of division and then to disfellowship any who consort with GTA or any of his fellows." (Roderick C. Meredith, Pastor's Report, May 21, 1979, pp. 1-2.)

See here for this statement's context.

David Robinson on Roderick C. Meredith

WCG minister David Robinson had this to say about Roderick C. Meredith in a letter he wrote to him on September 19, 1979.

"During the ten years I have been an employee of the Worldwide Church, you have been poorly spoken of by most of the ministers and employees I have known. I vividly remember the absolute unbounded glee that was openly expressed by a good number of respected men in the church when you were first "shanghaied." [In 1972.] I could begin by naming names, which I am sure would shock you. I was one of the few who stood, where possible, for you. Your tenure as superintendent of ministers, as I believe the office was then called, was looked on as nightmarish. While you held office during the years of growth, most of those whom I know gave you very little credit for that growth. Almost everyone whom I know, whether they be former friends of yours, or continuing foes, recalls insensitive and terrible things you have done. Without exception, at least among my acquaintances, they all credit you with an unbridled lust for power and list you as one who is willing to pay the price of gaining that power, no matter what. I have, through many of the last few years, believed you had principles you would not violate. Many a man of experience in the church assured me of my error. Events have proven me wrong and them right. Mr. Armstrong has himself been widely quoted as saying of you that you were so righteous that you were so "righteous you were unrighteous." " (David Robinson, Herbert Armstrong's Tangled Web, Chapter 16, p. 207.)

Of course it is impossible for me to personally verify these assertions but people deserve to know what this knowledgeable man had to say about him.
