She escaped the religious sect she grew up in. Now she says Trump’s MAGA movement is eerily similar

Story by James Liddell • 4 October 2024

A woman has drawn similarities between Donald Trump’s MAGA movement and the apocalyptic, religious sect she escaped from.

In the autumn of 1974, as former president Richard Nixon resigned and the US was still entrenched in the Vietnam War, Cyd Chartier and her parents were introduced to the fundamentalist religious organization The Move of God.

The Move was founded by Sam Fife after he was allegedly booted from the Baptist church for adultery.

As the sect’s enigmatic and autocratic leader – up until his death in 1979 – Fife wrote a Divine Order doctrine in 1974 in which he claimed God had put The Move in place as a “many-membered manchild to govern the world.”

Now, five decades after she joined the religious sect as a child, Chartier has spoken out about the eerie resemblances between the group and Trump’s loyal fanbase setting out to “make America great again.”

“Mom and Dad bought it all: Fife’s lies, delusions and conspiracies,” Chartier writes in a Huffington Post essay.

Chartier says she saw the same thing happen when Trump announced he was running for president in 2016.

“Under the guise of a politician with a fake tan and bad haircut was an angry man, an arrogant man, a dark and dangerous man – a man so like Sam Fife that I immediately knew I was facing the same threat I had faced as a young woman all those years ago,” she writes.

“Then, in 2015, as I watched Donald Trump float down the Trump Tower escalator to announce his candidacy for the US presidency, I felt a stab of recognition.”

After leaving The Move behind, some of Chartier’s family upheld their conservative values and threw their support behind the Republican presidential candidate.

“After he won the election, I saw more and more Fife whenever Trump opened his mouth,” Chartier continues.

“The lying, misogyny, apocalyptic language, fear-mongering and the enthusiastic embrace of conspiracy theories all set off ancient alarms inside of me. I fell into a deep depression.”

Trump has often called for the MAGA crowd to battle (metaphorically), urging them to “fight” numerous times including in his January 6, 2021 rally, during the attempt on his life in July and at his speech at the Republican National Convention. He has also called the Capitol rioters “warriors.”

Chartier recalls hearing similar language in Fife’s sermons where he declared that “God had selected him and his congregation to serve as warriors in the ultimate and final battle against worldly evil.”

Fife also believed God selected him for a greater purpose.

The former president has often shared his belief that divine intervention spared his own life so that he might be able to save America after he survived two assassination attempts in as many months.

“If I win that, that would really serve to say that if there’s some incredible power up there that wanted me to be involved in saving [the US] – and maybe it’s more than saving the nation. Maybe it’s saving the world,” he said in an interview with Dr Phil in August after he was shot in the ear at a Butler, Pennsylvania rally in July.

After the second attempt on his life last month at his West Palm Beach golf club, Trump said in an X Spaces livestream: “I mean, perhaps it’s God wanting me to be president to save this country; nobody knows.”

Chartier says she is now bracing as Trump vies to be elected president for a second term.

“Now that Trump once again threatens to take the reins of the federal government, the possibility of living under the eye of another misogynistic authoritarian regime feels frighteningly real,” she said.

Poster Comment:

These are the rantings of some woman that was drawn into a cult.

The first thing Trump did in the Oval Office in 2016 was to reverse ALL of Obama's unlawful Executive Orders. As far as I know, no sitting President has reversed George W. Bush's E.O. that created the Great War on Terror. Therefore, the Constitution has been suspended since that time in 2001.

When the Constitution was written in 1789 (a reorganization under international bankruptcy laws since the British were counterfeiting Colonial Script which made it worthless) several of the new prospective States refused to sign without a Bill of Rights.

The First Amendment spells out your rights, and the Second Amendment spells out how to defend those rights with an armed populace.

The facts are that it seems Seth Rich knew about Hillary's cheating at the polls and was trying to expose that cheating.

During the Primaries, Hillary had alternate Polling places set up. If you called their HQ you were given one of their alternate sites to vote. If you called the DNC HQ you were given a totally different site to vote.

If Hillary were elected as POTUS, she would have finished the job Obummer failed to complete, the bringing down of America. The only thing that saved us was Donald Trump winning the election.

When the events of 9-11-2001 occurred, and the planes hit the Twin Towers, Hillary's Law Firm in Little Rock had done the patent filing on the Flight Interuptor microchip that was installed in all commercial aircraft in the 1990s. If a plane were hijacked it could be taken over by remote control and safely landed.

“I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.” - William S Burroughs
