Right-wing preacher Lance Wallnau streamed a video on Periscope yesterday in which he declared that the stock market had fallen yesterday because God was punishing business leaders who had insulted President Trump.
Wallnau was outraged by the fact that several business leaders had resigned from presidential advisory councils in protest of Trump's comments in the wake of the violence that had occurred at a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia last weekend, which ultimately forced Trump to disband the councils entirely.
"They insulted the president and his base," Wallnau declared. "It doesn't surprise me [that] the stock market had its first setback today. That's not a coincidence. That's not a coincidence, that's a prophetic response to the uprising and insult that came from these CEOs."
"When those CEOs mocked Trump and made this a political issue, the judgment would come where their pocketbooks are," he continued. "How fast does God sometimes settle accounts."
