Mark Taylor is a former firefighter who claims that while he was watching Fox News back in 2011, God personally told him that Donald Trump would become president of the United States. Taylor initially thought that meant that Trump would challenge President Obama when he ran for re-election in 2012, but when that didn't happen, Taylor realized that was because it was God's plan to keep Obama in office for a second term so that Americans could "build a righteous anger" necessary to elect Trump and thereby save the world.
When Trump was elected president in 2016, Taylor penned a book titled "The Trump Prophecies: The Astonishing True Story Of The Man Who Saw Tomorrow… And What He Says Is Coming Next" and quickly made a name for himself as a modem-day prophet and radical conspiracy theorist.
In the last year, Taylor has claimed that God told him that Trump will replace five members of the Supreme Court, three of whom will be removed from the bench after being indicted for corruption, and that two of the five currently living former presidents will die as punishment for criticizing Trump, while the other three will be imprisoned and possibly executed for treason.
Taylor, who claims that Trump will release the cures for cancer and Alzheimer's disease during his second term in office and asserted that God made journalist Megyn Kelly ill as a "warning shot" to all those who would dare to criticize Trump, believes that thousands of elite satanic pedophiles have been secretly arrested and that we will soon start seeing them prosecuted via military tribunals that will "make Nuremberg look like a cakewalk." Taylor actually predicted that we'd see mass arrests in February, but the fact that that obviously didn't happen doesn't seem to have harmed his standing as a "prophet" in any way.
Last year, Taylor asserted that Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, which devastated parts of Texas and Florida respectively, were created and controlled by the Illuminati to punish the areas of the country that voted for Trump and to serve as a "training run" for a massive witchcraft attack against the president. On top of that, Taylor warned that the Freemasons and the Illuminati are using a special frequency to change people's DNA in order to make them hate Trump so that they are unable to see how God is using him to save America.
With an amazing track record like this, it was probably only a matter of time before Liberty University decided to turn Taylor's life story into a feature film, which is a thing that is actually happening:
It was officially announced Jan. 26 that the Liberty University Cinematic Arts department would be working on a feature film getting national theatrical release.
“Commander” comes after the program’s first feature film “Extraordinary,” and a series of short films. “Commander” is an adaptation of the book “The Trump Prophecies.”
The film, which is slated to be released in October, is the true story of an ex-firefighter named Mark Taylor who in 2011, while recovering from PTSD, had a vision that Donald Trump would be President.
Executive Director of the Cinematic Arts program and producer/director of the film Stephan Schultze said that the experience provided to students through this project is invaluable.
“There is no other film school in the country that makes feature films with their students,” Schultze said. “Not only do we make movies, but this’ll be the second movie we’ve had a national theatrical release, which is very hard to do.”
The message the film’s producer and financier Rick Eldridge wants to get across is how there is power in prayer and the impact it can have on a group of people mixed with patriotism.
“I really want it to be a patriotic, a God and country message that we can understand,” Eldridge said. “The best thing I can take away is when people leave the theater they are really feeling proud about their country and the things God has blessed us with.”
Predictably, this project is not sitting well with some Liberty students and alumni who have started a petition to get the university to cancel this "heretical film project" on the grounds that "this movie could reflect very poorly on all Liberty students and Liberty University as a whole," especially those enrolled in the Cinematic Arts program who "do not want this movie on their resume and ... are even considering using aliases on IMDB or dropping out."
Liberty University's president, Jerry Falwell Jr., has been an enthusiastic and loyal supporter of Trump's, which has also not gone over well with some students and alumni.
