Despite the fact that President Trump is a pathological liar whose disregard for the truth has infected almost the entire Republican Party and conservative movement, right-wing pastor E.W. Jackson declared on his radio program yesterday that it is the Democrats who cannot stop lying because their party is controlled by the Devil.

“The Democrat Party is really now made up of a bunch of liars,” Jackson said. “There is a culture of lying that has just taken over the party.”

“One of the things that Karl Marx posited was there is nothing wrong with lying so long as it advances the cause of communism and I think these Democrats have adopted the same principle,” he added.

Jackson then read from Proverb 6, which states that God hates “a proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, a false witness who speaks lies, and one who sows discord among brethren.”

“Folks, if that is not a description of what the Democrat Party has become, I don’t know what is,” Jackson said. “Jesus said this, ‘Satan is a liar and the father of lie and when he speaks of a lie, he speaks of his own.’ Jesus said to those who denounced him, ‘You are of your father, the Devil, and the deeds of your father, you will do.’ Now folks, I know the leftists and the mainstream media just go all crazy over this, but the reality is that when you see a culture lying like that, of just being willing to stand up and just bold-face tell a lie, and tell multiple lies, and keep telling lies, you are looking at a situation in which the Devil is in control. From a Christian perspective, there is no other way to interpret that, because Jesus said, ‘He’s the father of lies.’ So obviously, that is who their father is because they’re lying just like their father lies.”
