What Does Bob Mitchell Of The Last Days Watchman Channel Say In His Book Blood Moons, Donald Trump, Jerusalem And The 2029 Asteroid Apophis, In Relation To Donald Trump, And Is There Any Truth Whatever In What He Says In His Book?
What the Book Says Regarding Donald Trump
In Blood Moons, Donald Trump, Jerusalem and the 2029 Asteroid Apophis, author Bob Mitchell weaves modern political events into an overarching Christian end-times and numerological narrative.
Specifically concerning Donald Trump, the book makes the following claims:
The 2020 Election Outcome: Written and published ahead of the November 2020 U.S. presidential election (initially released in mid-2020), the book claimed to foresee that Donald Trump would lose his re-election bid.
Divinely Orchestrated Patterns: Mitchell asserts that Trump's loss was not merely political, but was encoded in advance through "hidden patterns" in historical dates and biblical numbers (specifically focusing on multiples and divisions of the number seven).
Geopolitical and Prophetic Triggers: The book connects Trump's presidency—particularly his administration's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital—to a larger prophetic timeline. It links these political milestones to the concept of the Third Temple in Jerusalem, biblical "blood moon" lunar signs, and an ultimate countdown pointing toward future apocalyptic events, culminating with the close approach of the asteroid Apophis on April 13, 2029.
Is There Any Truth to What He Says?
From an objective, scientific, and empirical standpoint, there is no factual or verifiable truth to the core claims made in the book. They rely on pseudo-historical interpretation, numerology, and religious speculation rather than verifiable evidence.
An evaluation of the book's key pillars reveals why mainstream historians, scientists, and theologians view these claims skeptically:
1. The Claim of "Predicting" the 2020 Election
The Reality: Predicting that an incumbent U.S. president might lose an election is a 50/50 proposition based entirely on standard political forecasting, polling shifts, and historical trends (as many incumbent presidents have lost re-election).
The Fallacy: Attributing a common political outcome to hidden mathematical codes or divine numerical patterns is an example of apophenia—the human tendency to perceive meaningful patterns where none exist. By sifting through thousands of historical dates, anyone can cherry-pick numbers that appear divisible by 7 or align with historical anniversaries to manufacture a "pattern."
2. Blood Moons and End-Times Prophecy
The Reality: Lunar eclipses ("blood moons") are entirely predictable, recurring astronomical events governed by the predictable orbital mechanics of the Earth, Moon, and Sun. They have occurred regularly throughout Earth's history and will continue to do so indefinitely.
The Fallacy: Attaching supernatural or apocalyptic meaning to lunar eclipses is a form of astrology/omen-seeking, which views natural scientific phenomena as secret warning messages directed at specific human politicians or nations.
3. The 2029 Asteroid Apophis Threat
The Reality: Asteroid 99942 Apophis is a real near-Earth asteroid that will make a famously close approach to Earth on April 13, 2029. However, extensive radar observations and orbital tracking by NASA and other international space agencies have thoroughly ruled out any chance of Apophis impacting Earth in 2029 or during its subsequent close pass in 2036.
The Fallacy: Using a well-studied, non-threatening astronomical flyby to anchor a doomsday narrative distorts real science to fit a pre-packaged religious or apocalyptic framework.
Summary
While Bob Mitchell’s book appeals to readers interested in Christian sensationalism, end-times speculation, and conspiracy-adjacent prophecy, its assertions about Donald Trump and future apocalypses are speculative fiction and numerological coincidence, not factual reality.
