Candidate calls Trump ‘anti-Christ’ and says he ‘must be killed’

The latest in deranged attacks on President Donald Trump comes from a discharged Marine who called him “the anti-Christ” and said he must be assassinated.

William Upham released a long video rant that sparked outrage as the Republican write-in candidate for the House of Representatives in Florida declared that Trump “must be killed” because “he is your enemy.”

“I decided to run for office to fix our broken political system, to restore bipartisanship, return power to the working class, and to end our system of Washington insiders, extremism, and excuses from our current members of Congress,” said the congressional candidate who was wearing his military uniform despite being medically discharged from the US Marine Corps in May 2025.

You wear the uniform of our beloved Marine Corps.

Then you call our Commander in Chief the anti-Christ.

Then you say he must be killed.

Boy, have you lost your mind? https://t.co/fIcJZki03f

“I’ve reached a turning point in my campaign. Why? I’ve come to the realization that our country is broken. We are led by a president who is the enemy of God, and President Trump will never bring us together as God intended,” the former Marine First Lieutenant continued.

“Is our country salvageable? Maybe it is. Our Founding Fathers intended us to be the freest country on this planet, and that’s what we became. But in doing so, we became the most selfish. We turned away from God. We turned away from love and kindness, and we turned away from putting others first,” Upham said.

“I joined the United States Marine Corps to defend our country against all enemies, including the enemies here at home,” he said as he used religious language and references to the Bible to justify his views.

“Violence should never be used for evil purposes, such as vengeance or plunder,” he claimed even as he called for the assassination of the president.

“This is a message to all of God’s children in our country: We must defend ourselves against all enemies. We are at war with evil. This is a war between God and the anti-Christ,” he went on. “There is no doubt in my mind that the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, is the anti-Christ. He is a false messiah, and he is your enemy, and he must be killed.”

“The Lamb will be sacrificed to pay for all of our sins, and our country will be saved from the Babylon that we have become,” he concluded. “President Trump is the anti-Christ, and he will be killed and sent to hell. God will prevail against evil.”

The U.S. Marine Corps quickly expressed condemnation for the “disturbing” comments.

“The Marine Corps is aware of the disturbing statements made by William Upham, who was medically discharged on May 30, 2025. The comments made by Upham are a direct violation of the oath he swore to uphold and are not in keeping with the service’s values,” read a post on X.

Acting Secretary of the Navy Hung Cao was blunt: “Unacceptable. William Upham is no longer a Marine and does not represent our values or ethos.”
