Rick Joyner: Trump Might Be ‘The Most Brilliant Person I’ve Ever Met’

Right-wing pastor Rick Joyner recently went to see “Darkest Hour,” the new film about Winston Churchill, and came away amazed at the parallels he sees between Churchill and President Trump, whom he said might just be “the most brilliant person I’ve ever met.”

In a video posted on his Facebook page yesterday, Joyner said that he is not concerned by Trump’s undignified speech and lack of decorum because “what he is accomplishing is what should be [considered] presidential … and he’s accomplishing some of the most amazing things ever.”

“He is really caustic,” Joyner said. “He will hit back at everybody—I’m talking about Donald Trump—he is very much like Churchill. Churchill was brilliant and I’ll tell you this about Donald Trump: He’s not a man of study and research and reading and writing—in many ways they don’t compare—but I’ve met a lot of brilliant people in my life, some of the most brilliant in just about every field … When I met Donald Trump, I was only in his office—I don’t know, we might have been there talking for an hour—but in just a few minutes, I understood this guy is unbelievably brilliant. He may be the most brilliant person I’ve ever met.”
