‘Witches’ Casting Spells on President Trump Upset He Has ‘Some Kind of Protection Around Him’

Hexes cast against President Donald Trump don’t appear to be effective possibly due to a circle of protection around him, “witches” complained on a Reddit forum.
According to a post highlighted by X user @Reddit_lies, a screenshot from Reddit’s “r/WitchesVsPatriarchy” forum shows one “witch” recommended possible ways to circumvent Trump’s spiritual protective armor.
“Would today be a good day for a freezer spell?” the user asked.
“Some other witches have mentioned that doing spells directly against Trump are not as effective as we might hope as he seems to have some kind of protection around him,” states the screenshot, which says it was published 90 days ago.
The post continued:
“A freezer spell against Project 2025 would likely be useful, but I wouldn’t give the cheeto any more attention right now (He hates to be ignored, right? lol).”
According to X’s AI bot Grok, a “freezer spell” is “a type of spell intended to stop, freeze, or slow down certain energies, situations, or behaviors.”
“Typically, you would write the name of the person or the situation you want to freeze on a piece of paper,” Grok describes, adding, “Some practitioners might use a photograph or a personal item associated with the target,” which are then put in a Ziplock bag and placed in a literal freezer.
The Reddit user went on to say additionally casting protection spells over the Democrats wouldn’t be a bad idea.
“A lot of people are taking the opportunity to do protection and uplifting kinds of spells to help Kamala & the Democrats, rather than attacking the other side. An awesome spell that can be repeated many times is the Blue Wave Spell,” the user says linking to a Substack describing how to conduct the spell.
For his part, President Trump has credited the “hand of God” with saving his life during an assassination attempt in Butler, Pa., on July 13.

The witches’ curses are reminiscent of a similar happening ahead of the 2020 election, when thousands of witches collectively conducted a mass ritual Halloween spell “to bind Donald Trump and all those who abet him.”

In summary, witches aligned with the forces of evil are attempting to negate the protection bestowed by God on President Trump.
The battle lines have never been clearer.
Can witches defeat Donald Trump? They’re trying
These witches are trying to use their power to defeat President Trump
Meanwhile, charismatic Christians gather and pray for President Trump, likened by a movement leader to the biblical King Cyrus.
Each month, under the glow of a waning crescent moon, thousands of American voters — who also happen to be self-identified witches — gather online and in person with one goal: preventing Donald Trump from winning the presidential election.
Armed with orange candles, tarot cards, and a not-so-flattering photo of the rightful president, they cast a spell to block his return to the White House.
The final words of their synchronized ritual — “You’re fired!” — echo as President Trump’s image burns to the ground.
Meanwhile, a very different group has been gathering in packed convention centers and under tents in states across the country.
They are devout Christians on a religious-political campaign dubbed the “Courage Tour,” and they are part of a growing movement that embraces supernatural gifts like prophecy and divine healing.
With raised, swaying hands, and collective prayer chants, they rally for two divine interventions: make Trump president again; and protect him from what they see as the forces of evil arrayed against him.
Both groups see each other as opposites — one using the occult, the other invoking miracles — but both believe in the supernatural’s power to influence an election where Kamala Harris and President Donald Trump are thought neck-and-neck in opinion polls.
“These groups may be wildly different in what they’re fighting for, but how they’re fighting for it looks very similar,” says Sabina Magliocco, a University of British Columbia professor who studies the modern witch movement.
As faith in political structures falters, both sides are turning to higher powers — witches with their magic, Christians with their prayers — to try and regain some semblance of control in an increasingly chaotic election season.
“They’re turning to the supernatural because they feel like they have no other choice,” Magliocco says.
“They are looking to tip the scales in their favor, using whatever means possible.”
To the witches, the orange candles may be for a “binding” spell that aims to prevent President Trump from doing further harm; but the yellow candles are for something very different.
This month, about 100 women across the U.S. are invited to gather on Zoom and light their yellow candles for a ritual.
Eyes closed, they visualize a future three years from now where Kamala Harris is president. Each woman focuses intently on this vision while their candles symbolize clearing obstacles from Harris’s path to victory.
This ritual is called “future-casting,” and at the center of it all is Wendy Houseman, a D.C.-based witch who left her corporate career to practice witchery full-time.
Leading a coven of professionals — lawyers, doctors, and executives, according to her — Houseman guides them through rituals aimed at shaping the political landscape.
“It’s giving us agency where we don’t have any,” Houseman said in an interview. And, according to her, the more future casters there are, “the stronger the magic is.”
That’s why she plans to invite her 25,000 mailing list subscribers to join these political rituals leading up to the election.
This is just one of many rituals being performed by witches across America, all aimed at securing a Democratic win in 2024.
Another monthly ritual involves “binding” spells to block President Trump’s re-election and prevent him from doing harm.
Michael M. Hughes, one of the originators of the Trump binding spell in 2017, suggested these rituals have gained momentum in participation as the election nears.
“There was a renewed energy from witches once Kamala got the nomination,” he said.
On the right, President Trump has his own spiritual warriors calling on divine intervention to bring him back to the White House.
Charismatic Christians, part of a growing movement of believers in supernatural gifts like prophecy, see Trump as God’s chosen leader.
At the heart of their efforts is the Courage Tour, a national campaign in key swing states led by Lance Wallnau, an evangelical influencer.
On Facebook in 2015, Wallnau likened President Trump to the biblical King Cyrus, who liberated the Jewish people then in Babylonian captivity, serving their needs despite not being a Jew himself. “President Donald Trump is more prophetic than people think. There is a Cyrus anointing on this man.”
At rallies, thousands gather online and in person to pray, worship, and hear speakers like Mayra Rodriguez, a former Planned Parenthood worker turned pro-life activist, who spoke at the Courage Tour stop in Arizona.
“Our goal is for people to gather and pray for the nation,” Rodriguez said. “The more people praying, the stronger our odds.”
During the Philadelphia stop, the audience was treated to a guest appearance by U.S. Senator and vice-presidential candidate J.D. Vance. His attendance garnered backlash online, especially after Wallnau described Harris’ debate performance as “witchcraft.”
For these Christians, the political left — and anyone opposing President Trump — represents evil. Some even see their prayers as counteracting the spells witches are casting against Trump.
“They see Trump as God’s warrior, and anyone who opposes him as a threat to their vision of America,” said Matthew D. Taylor, a scholar at the Institute for Islamic, Christian, and Jewish Studies who follows the issue.
And so, on any given night, as fervent prayers ascend to heaven in support of President Trump, believers on the opposite side of the political spectrum petition the cosmos just as devotedly for his ruin.
All sides believe ordinary political action isn’t enough to win this election. That’s where magic comes in, according to Magliocco.
“Historically, magic emerges when people feel like they can’t achieve things through normal means, especially when stakes and anxieties are high.”
The use of magic in politics isn’t new.
During the Second World War, British occultist Dion Fortune led visualizations to protect Britain from Nazi invasion. In 1967, 35,000 anti-war protesters famously tried to levitate the Pentagon to drive out evil influences in the military.
While U.S. elections don’t have a long-recorded tradition of magical involvement, the 2016 race sparked a surge of supernatural activity on both sides.
Some far-right groups, like the Cult of Kek, believed sharing memes of a cartoon frog could create chaos and help Trump win. Meanwhile, left-leaning witches began binding spells to limit President Trump’s power.
But these witches and Christians aren’t just saying a couple of prayers and rituals and calling it a day. That’s just the first step.
Irene Glasse, a witch from Maryland, says that while magic is important, “magic alone won’t win elections.” That’s why witches also engage in political action, like writing letters, knocking on doors, and organizing rallies, she said.
This blend of magic and activism is known as “acting in accordance” in witchcraft — following up spells with real-world efforts.
Similarly, the Courage Tour isn’t just about prayer, “it’s a get-out-the-vote effort,” Taylor said. One of its main goals is to recruit participants as local election workers and poll watchers.
Leon Benjamin, leader of MAGA Black and speaker at the Michigan Courage Tour, said, “we can gather and pray, but the real work is done on the ground.”
