I was surprised when I started watching the video you linked to. As this board is called Christian Chat, I made the mistake of assuming the thread title was using the idea of people being sheep in the way Jesus used it. For example:
(Joh 10:24 NKJV) Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, "How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly."
(Joh 10:25) Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me.
(Joh 10:26) But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you.
(Joh 10:27) My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
(Joh 10:28) And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
So Christians really are sheep, in the way Jesus used that word.
People are sheep when it comes to a relationship with God by His Spirit which happens when they confess Jesus and His work.
Which means we need a shepherd and a guide to find the truth and maintain that truth and oversee us.
There is no good thing that dwells in the flesh so we cannot do it on our own.

Also, not all Christians are Trump-obsessed illegal immigration supporters, and not all MAGA supporters are Trump-obsessed. No group is monolithic.
Look at Covid and how the masses converged to get the vaccinations. That is what we call (Herd Mentality) and they blindly just did as told like a herd of sheep.
I don't know about America, but for sure the government here made it extremely difficult to live normally without vaccination. I'm not anti vax but I'm certainly anti coercion. It's not a health worker's fault if they can't work unless they are vaccinated. Likewise first responders, teachers, child care workers - if your livelihood depends on it, most people will conform. I don't call that blindly following.

Personally, I wonder if any Trump-obsessed MAGA supporters are Christians. Trump, to me, is a cult leader. If so, then his followers are cultists.

I’ve never heard of a Trump-obsessed illegal immigration supporter. I don’t believe they exist.

The guy definitely has a Messiah complex.
What about this golden statue?
If he thought that he could get away with it, then he would probably have everyone thrown into a fiery furnace who did not bow down to it. The guy is a megalomaniac who seemingly fancies himself to be Christlike. Personally, I view him as an antichrist. Not the Antichrist, but an antichrist. His son-in-law, Jared Kushner, gives me the creeps. I can't even look at him without seeing pure evil.

I’ve been so removed from politics. I watch some videos sometimes and I keep up with major events, I have heard of Jared Kushner but can’t put a face to his name.

I normally try to avoid politics altogether, except in how things done in that arena might relate to biblical prophecy. To that point, I did notice that Tom Hanks recently did a documentary on WWII. I am going to try to watch that when I can find the time to do so.

My fiancée and I plan to watch “Americas” narrated by Tom Hanks. I think he mentions evolution type stuff but very seldomly, so it’s not as brainwashing as some of the discovery channel type documentaries. We look forward to watching it.
Okay, I do recognize Jared Kushner. He looks like he would be a ghost host for like a haunted mansion ride at an amusement park.
Seeing that Covid ended up being unnaturally created in a lab confessed by the Chinese most people never required such measurements. But still they lined up and vaccinated.
Funny story:
My household, wife a Democrat, always was complaining during Covid and supposedly she contracted Covid 7 times and it was documented. One day I was in the field running irrigation water and watched several county vehicles driving up the dirt lane to the property. Several people, maybe 20 stepped out and proceeded to clothe themselves in protective gear and just walked into the home.
They tested my children and wife and said they all had Covid. About that time I walked into the home and they wanted to test me and I grabbed a weapon and told them to get out of the home. I knew what they were going to do.
One was talking with me about how much danger I was in. I said look, my wife has proclaimed she has had this virus numerous times because she believes you idiots but I have been here the entire time and not once been sick, had a fever, had a cough, no headaches, nothing. I said you can talk yourself into being sick when you believe in morons and I don't believe anything you are saying.
They wrote me as unable to contract Covid.
Truth is, the majority of people could have made up their minds to not fall for the trap. Instead they bought the lie and wasted a month worth of days doing nothing.
They were going to shut my farm down. But I showed them the light. Covid is as real as you make it.
Never vaccinated and not sick a single moment during the entire baloney 2 years. So excuse me If I don't feel bad for the majority dumb enough to buy it.
Most people are sheep because they follow and strongly defend the religion that they were born into. They would rather listen to and believe what another person in their religion has to say instead of doing their own research to find the truth. The sheep that belong to Christ hear and follow his voice. This occurs when a person is filled with the Holy Spirit which allows both Father and Son to enter his being and direct his mind, heart, and soul.
Oh, they do. They have TDS and think about Trump all the time..
I don't know, might be or not. But what I can say is, that those who are force obviously antichristian topics like abortion, islamic mass migration, censorship, lgbt and "climate" nonsense, most likely are serving for an anitchrist ideology.

Oh, those ones. I guess there are Trump-obsessed people on both ends of the spectrum...
