The Trump Prophecy is a Christian drama film. It tells the story of Mark Taylor, a retired firefighter who believes that, in April 2011, God told him that Donald Trump would one day become president of the United States. The movie also portrays how Taylor's words helped inspire a prayer movement during the 2016 election.
The Trump Prophecy is a production of Rick Eldridge's ReelWorks Studios, in cooperation with the film department of Liberty University, the evangelical Christian school founded by Jerry Falwell. It was directed by Stephan Schultze, the head of Liberty University's film program, and made with the help of many of the school's film students.
The Trump Prophecy is scheduled to be screened by Fathom Events in theaters throughout the U.S. on October 2 and October 4, 2018.
Production
The film was made with a budget of about $2 million.
Some Liberty University students created an online petition objecting to the school's involvement with the film. The petition said, "We should be very wary of modern-day prophets. Mark Taylor has claimed God told him that electing Trump will save the world which is unbiblical at best and heretical at worst."
