This mega Maga congressman said Charlie Kirk would have been the “13th disciple” and these comebacks are surely totally gospel
There’s been no end of right-wing tributes to Charlie Kirk in the days since the conservative activist and much else besides was shockingly shot dead last week.
But we’re not sure any of them were quite so eye-opening as this one, from Texan Republican and mega Maga congressman, Troy Nehls.
Here’s what Nehls, who once proudly declared that Donald Trump was the greatest president of his lifetime, had to say about Kirk.

If Jesus healed the sick, Charlie Kirk would’ve gone on tour warning about the dangers of “socialist healthcare.”

Jesus literally fed the poor, healed the sick for free, and told the rich to give up their wealth. That’s socialism, not Turning Point USA. https://t.co/8xSuTgdXlV

I just threw up a little in my mouth. Kirk would have been a Roman with a whip.

There were 12 deciples to represent the 12 tribes of Israel so where is he getting the 13th from I wonder.
They know nothing about the Bible or Jesus it’s all just for show.

None– and I mean none of these folk, read, or know anything about the bible.. It's truly clear to me now. And more importantly, they all use religion, Jesus, and God likes it's some Uno Card they take out to play against people when it's most convenient to them.. Shit is wild!

You gotta be kidding me. How long before they request his canonization as a saint?

I'm not even religious, and that comment disgusted me!
