American televangelist Pat Robertson said God told him who will prevail in the November 3 presidential election: President Donald Trump.

“First of all, I want to say without question, Trump is going to win the election,” Robertson told viewers during a segment on The 700 Club.

The 90-year-old founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network, who has been a supporter and defender of the president, also made dire predictions about the end of the world.

“What I think very frankly is the only thing that will fulfil the word of Jesus … is some kind of asteroid strike on the globe,” he said. “It’s sudden destruction. It’s not going to be some nuclear war. We’re not going to be allowed to blow this Earth up.”

Robertson has made such prophesies before and was wrong. In 1976, he predicted the world would end in 1982. And in his 1990 book, The New Millennium, he said the world would be destroyed on April 29, 2007.
