"I just wanted the US citizens to love Indians and not hate them. Everyone should live together and they should know about the good things we do as well," he says.

Krishna even has a spot for Trump's photo in his house, decked with flowers and incense sticks.

Krishna has managed to draw the attention of quite a few Trump fans, who leave encouraging comments on his posts, photos and videos.

"They really like it when they see Trump's photo decked up. They are telling me that they have new appreciation for Indian culture. Even now, I wish only for the well being of Indians," he says.

However, some also ridicule the prayers and question if he is serious about the prayers and question the need to liken Trump to God.

"The people from US don't mock me much. They understand how serious I am. It is mostly Indians who leave such comments. Even in my village, many people think I'm weird. I have nothing to gain or lose from this. I just want cordial relationships between the two countries," Krishna says.

To prove it, he even posted a video around two months ago, that showed him cutting his own finger and applying blood on Trump's portrait, in accordance with Hindu rituals.

The US President has been facing severe backlash after a number of young children have been separated from their families at the US-Mexico border as part of his immigration policies, with Time Magazine even dedicating their latest cover to the issue.  

When TNM asked Krishna about his views on the same, he responds, “I don’t know anything about Trump’s policies. I have only studied up to Class 10 and I don’t know much about these things. I’m only doing all of this for the good of Indians and for peace between our two countries.”

Despite never having been outside his own state, Krishna hopes that Trump is re-elected in the 2020 US Presidential Elections, adding that he will continue to pray for him.
