Trump is an antichrist, by the dictionary definition "I've never asked forgiveness. Vote for me evangelicals." Not likely THE Antichrist, but AN antichrist for 100% certain. The followers of Trump provide further confirmation of this by behaving precisely like the followers of THE Antichrist are described in 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12.
1) The love the pleasures of Trump's unrighteous more than they love truth.
2) Because they love the pleasures of Trump's unrighteousness, they refuse to receive the love of truth.
3) Because they refuse to receive the love of truth, they come under supernatural delusion.
4) That supernatural delusion is utterly impenetrable.
Bear in mind that from the beginning I have said that Trump is AN antichrist and not THE Antichrist. You know this, and yet you continue to insinuate otherwise. These kinds of deceitful practices are further demonstration of your evil intent and the pleasure that you take in wickedness.
8 ...the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will destroy by the breath of his mouth and wipe out by the manifestation of his arrival.
"The lawless one." This describes Trump to a tee. He is a law unto himself and 90% of his platform involves the willful devastation of the US Constitution.
9 The arrival of the lawless one will be by Satan’s working with all kinds of miracles and signs and false wonders,
"Miracles and signs and false wonders." Trump is the untouchable. His power over the media and inability to be damaged is nothing short of supernatural in appearance. This power that he has, has it's origin in lies, and Satan is the father of lies. This power that Trump has comes from Satan.
10 and with every kind of evil deception directed against those who are perishing, because they found no place in their hearts for the truth so as to be saved.
Trump deceives those who are lost, because they would not cling to the love of truth when the truth became too painful to bear.
11 Consequently God sends on them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false.
Therefore God causes the followers of Trump to be given to delusion so that they would believe him no matter how much of a liar he is proven to be.
12 And so all of them who have not believed the truth but have delighted in evil will be condemned.
This is intentional. It is used by God to separate those who love the Truth and will cling to it no matter how painful it may be, from those who do not truly love the truth but simply take pleasure in unrighteousness.
This is indeed how God is purging the Liberty movement of fakes. The fakes were never really committed to things like truth and integrity and principle, instead they were just excited at the thought of "destroying the established order" with no real care as to what might replace it. Thus the pleasure in wickedness. Those who take more pleasure in wickedness than love for truth will be cast out.

It's pretty clear, and the events before us fit like a hand in glove. When you come to understand that Trump is AN antichrist rather than THE Antichrist, then you can start to connect the dots why Trump's followers behave exactly and precisely like the followers of THE Antichrist are described in scripture.
Suddenly "those who pretended to be with us liberty folks" turning evil, rejecting the truth, and taking pleasure in the wickedness that is Donald Trump makes sense. This is how God purges the leaven out from the movement that He orchestrated and wicked people have attempted to coopt.
