The Bible clearly teaches it exists but I am unsure a loving God would assign anyone to hell that didn't somehow chose to be there by affirmatively rejecting an alternative. (Pride can be a powerful motivation.)

Nevertheless, if bad deeds earns the sinner hell, the current crop of Trumpers qualify. Of course, if bad deeds earns a sinner hell, we're all doomed.
