One of the recurring themes that I see on YouTube videos and blog posts is “The real reason why Trump won the election,” sometimes expressed as a question, “How did Trump win?” As a general rule, I’ll put them in the category of nonsense.
I’m sure that each and everyone of them has a horn to blow. Each one of them has some points. Each idea has something to recommend it and probably did have an effect. However, the thought that any one factor brought about his election is just tooting infatuation with the sound of your own voice.
Having said that, let me give my input. The one reason why Donald Trump won the presidential election was, ...drum roll..., Donald Trump. He had a lot of help. There were a number of key people like Elon Musk. There were miracles, like turning his head at the key moment when the bullet went by. These are all very real but the key ingredient was Donald Trump himself.
I hope that you join me in continuing to pray for him because the other key ingredient, the only one bigger than him, was Providence itself. God worked miracles we saw and many more we did not. Keep praying for Trump, the country, the political process, world peace and confusion to our enemies. We need more miracles. We may have made it across the Jordan but the Promised Land is still to be conquered.

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.
Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.
