MY RESPONSE:
But will they repent and vote against him? I fear there is a parallel to the parable of Lazarus and Dives here.

The Iowa farmers answered, ‘Then I beg you, Uncle Sam, send Christopher Gibbs and Brian Thalman to our fellow farmers, for we have many brothers who are farmers, and manufacturers who depend up farming. Let them warn them not to vote Republican in 2020, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’
“Uncle Sam replied, ‘They have the Ohio Soybean Association and the Minnesota Corn Growers Association; let them listen to them.’
“‘No, Uncle Sam,’ they said, ‘but if Christopher and Brian go to them, they will repent.’
“ Uncle Sam said to the Iowa Farmers, ‘If they did not listen to the 65,844,954 American people who voted against 45, they will not be convinced even if farmers who are going bankrupt speak to them.’”
