TV preacher Jesse Duplantis/Daystar network asks for donations in exact amount of Economic Impact payment of $1,200
Anons,
I have just witnessed one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen. Oh.. And there is sauce.
I went to watch a show that I like on the Daystar Christian Network, only to find that their annual telethon is running and the show has been pre-empted.
What was on in its place is Jesse Duplantis ranting at the camera in a live studio with the telethon numbers below him on the screen. No idea what he was saying as I had it on mute. Don't need to hear it anyway.
Now, TV preachers begging for money wearing better suits and more bling than most can afford is nothing new. But the chyron crawl absolutely made we want to punch my TV.
About every few minutes the following message would pop up above the donation telephone number.
"If you want to experience the "anointing of financial increase" that is on Jesse Duplantis, use your faith and pledge a one time gift of $1,200 or $100 a month for 12 months and believe God for a 30,60 or 100 fold blessing!" Call now or go online…"
My jaw hit the floor when I saw the dollar amount: $1200. There are a ton of numbers to pull out of the thin air. But these scumbags picked a number that just so happens to be the exact same amount as the individual amount of the economic impact payment!
I saw through this immediately. They are asking people to send in their stimulus checks. What!? I won't go into the whole thing of sending money to a network in the name of a man hoping for an increase of your situation rather than sowing on your own in the name of God.
Anons, I've seen some truly awful stuff from the likes of these people. But this is a new all-time low!
