Yesterday on "The Jim Bakker Show," Lori Bakker, Jim's wife and co-host, warned that Christians must support President Trump because secularists and liberals want to declare Christians to be mentally ill and lock them up in "mental illness centers."
"We love our president, we love our vice president, we love our first lady, we love our second lady," she said, defending the administration after Joy Behar of "The View" mocked Vice President Pence's faith on a recent program. "They stand up unashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ. What's scary for us? Jim has been preaching it for the last two days pretty strong; they're saying it's mental illness."
"If the world is thinking that we're all mentally ill, do you know what's going to happen next?" Bakker asked. "They are going to put us all away in mental illness centers."
"You know what they used to do with women that went through menopause back years ago?" she continued. "They put them in insane asylums because their hormonal balance was completely off. I'm not kidding, that is what they did. And I'm not kidding, that is what is going to happen to us as Christians. They are going to lock us up and throw us out if we don't stand up."
"It's in the Bible," agreed Jim.
