While aboard Air Force One en route to Israel on Sunday, President Trump admitted to reporters that he's "not sure I’m going to be able to make heaven."

President Donald Trump raised eyebrows when he admitted to reporters aboard Air Force One en route to Israel on Sunday that he's "not sure I’m going to be able to make heaven," prompting considerable mockery online.

Trump's remarks came just a couple of months after he sparked considerable ridicule by telling the press that bringing about an end to the war in Ukraine may help him with getting "to heaven." At the time, he said that if he successfully ends the war, "this will be one of the reasons" why he ends up there.


And last week, he also referenced heaven when he said "I want to be good because you want to prove to God you’re good so you go to that next step."

But he sang a slightly different tune in his response to Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy about how a brokered peace deal between Israel and Hamas—the reason for the flight—could help him with that goal:

“I mean, I’m being a little cute. I don’t think there’s anything gonna get me in heaven, I really don’t… I think I’m maybe not heaven-bound."
"I may be in heaven right now as we fly in Air Force One, I’m not sure I’m going to be able to make heaven. But I’ve made life better for a lot of people.”

You can hear what he said in the video below.

Considering people are being torn from their families as part of his immigration crackdown, he is preparing to send troops into American cities, he's prosecuting political opponents, and he's used the ongoing government shutdown to slash key government agencies—including gutting the office responsible for overseeing special education at the Department of Education—many would disagree with Trump's claim that he's "made life better for a lot of people.”

Many have called him out.


Is this the most honest thing Trump has ever said? It might be.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has sparked outrage after the Pentagon announced it's investigating Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly—a former U.S. Navy captain and astronaut—for "serious allegations of misconduct" after he joined five other members of Congress in a video reminding military members that they took an oath to obey the Constitution and can disobey illegal orders.

In a video message, Kelly, joined by a group of fellow veterans in Congress that included his colleagues Sen. Elissa Slotkin (Michigan) and Rep. Jason Crow (Pennsylvania), noted that the Trump administration is "pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens."

GOP Rep. Claims MTG's Resignation Could Be The First Of Many In Eye-Opening Rant

Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene—once the conspiracy theory-spewing, QAnon-embracing apple of MAGA's eye—announced on Friday her intent to resign and retire from Congress effective January 5.

In the wake of her almost 10-minute video announcement, an anonymous senior House Republican said many others in the party have also grown sick of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump and his incompetent, petty, glory-hogging administration. They cite Christian nationalist Speaker Mike Johnson as his primary enabler.
