In view of Donald Trump's propensity to issue "fake news" all the time as true and to deride the true news as fake, I have found the following scriptural warning against him. This is from the Book of Enoch which was widely circulated among the early Christian churches, although it didn't quite make it into the final draft of the bible.
"Woe to you who set at nought the words of the righteous; for you shall have no hope of life. Woe to you who write down lying and godless words; for they write down their lies that men may hear them and act godlessly towards their neighbour. Therefore they shall have no peace, but die a sudden death."
[Enoch XCVII: 14-16]
Watch out Mr Trump!
A quote of Napoleon Bonaparte is also somewhat relevant:
"In politics, stupidity is not a handicap."
