Is this spell going to work?

They mention spirts of air and fire.  You said those were inportant right?

Binding does not generate the potential negative blowback to the caster’s karma.

There is so much wrong with that sentence, I don't even know where to start

As for your question: no, of course not. That isn't magick, it's roleplaying.

No.  They were trying to do this during the Republican primaries, and again during the general election.  Add to that the smear campaign by the media and Republican establishment.

Modern American Wicca has spent a lot of time trying to convince everyone they're not satanists.  Now, they're ruining whatever credit they may have earned over the decades with this silly shit.

Same chances as any other spell. If he trips and breaks his neck on that day, no doubt the spell worked. If he does not, obviously the potent black magic of Arch-Necromancer Mike Pence protected him.

I did an article about this. Well, not this but similar stuff from the election.

The left has the shittiest occult people. They're pathetic.  The right has some real pieces of work too, mind you.

Ironically, probably the most powerful occult force in the election was (originally) entirely accidental: Kek.

Skepticism aside, this is exactly correct.  Most of the "pro" magicians I knew made it clear to me that if they did a magical working, they didn't talk about it.  They sure as hell didn't announce it publicly.

They're "binding" Trump.  This could be twisted and interpreted to mean nearly anything.  As an American president, it's inevitable that he's going to find his agenda stopped, blocked, slowed, etc. as a result of governmental balance of powers (his "Muslim ban" being blocked by the courts, for example).

These idiot witches will perform their binding and wait.  Sooner or later, Trump will have something else show up to limit his power, as a natural outcome of how our government is supposed to work.  When this happens, they can claim "See!  Our binding worked!"  This serves to reinforce the self-created delusion of their own, non-existent magical power.  The real point of the binding ritual isn't to stop Trump, it's to support their own delusions and fortify the fantasies they've created for themselves.

I think the occult tends to attract people with polarised views either way. You wouldn't likely get an occultists with a centrist position on most issues anyway.

That's mostly true. Apart from a few people so drawn into their own personal obsessions that nothing else matters to them.

It keeps the sharks away Bert.

There aren't any sharks around here Ernie.

Well, it must be working Bert.

Except magic is more like "I'm sure that smearing my head with aardvark piss is why I don't have dandruff, the Head & Shoulders just helps."

Now that sounds like an article, unless I missed it.
