They also rationalize their idolatry by comparing Trump to Cyrus, the Persian emperor who ultimately repatriated the Jews and helped them rebuild their temple. Though he was pagan (this being a long time before Islam) he achieved God's purpose.

But Cyrus was known in the ancient world for his wisdom and kindness, always concerned with the rights of the minority. Trump's behavior towards today's minorities could not be more opposite.
