Buckley Briefly Thought He Was Messiah – Report

Campaign photographer convinced him to try to walk on water

Annapolis (SPP) – Gavin Buckley was convinced by his campaign photographer, albeit briefly,  last summer during his mayoral campaign, that he was the Messiah. The astonishing report came from a former high ranking Buckley campaign advisor who requested anonymity.

“Gavin was out having coffee one afternoon with his campaign photographer, this guy named Conrad, at 49 West. Conrad is sort of a local street philosopher type guy who lives in a trailer park just outside of town. A bit out there, but a damn good photographer. That’s why we used him. So both Conrad and Gavin had been toking it up separately before the meeting and that didn’t help. They started out talking about normal stuff, but after several minutes, Conrad just stopped talking and stared at Gavin intensely.” the advisor said.

“The two just sat there quietly looking at each other for about five minutes, but it felt like forever to Gavin. Then Conrad just smiled, a weird odd smile, and said to Gavin, ‘You’re a Lightworker, a rare being who has the ability to lead us not merely better policies, but who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet. You are here to help us evolve. You are a philosopher and peacemaker of a very high order.’”

According to the source, Gavin just sat there dumbfounded as he looked at his photographer and wondered what was going on.

“Conrad continued to look at Gavin intensely and Gavin looked back at him, sort of confused. Conrad then said ‘look into my eyes, Gavin’ and he did. ‘You’re more than that. I can see your soul. You are the chosen one. You are the one to lead us out of darkness of Trump. You’re the Messiah.’”

The adviser reported that Gavin initially laughed it off, but his photographer kept getting more intense. “You can walk on water,” Conrad insisted. “Try it tonight, you won’t be disappointed. I promise,” Conrad reportedly said with all seriousness as he continued to stare at Gavin.

Gavin reportedly brushed this off and left the meeting, but his mind kept going back to it over and over again as he drank at Tsunami, his restaurant. When he got really drunk, he actually started to believe it.

Buckley walked home that night.  When he got to Lafayette Park, near his house, he walked out to the pier. “He’s right about me,” Gavin said to himself. Then Buckley put his foot down on Spa Creek, fully expecting to be able to walk. Of course, he plummeted into the water.

“Bloody Wanker!” Buckley said about his photographer as he pulled himself out of the creek. “He then looked around to make sure no one saw him, walked home, and never told anyone of the incident.”

The Super Patriot Post attempted to reach Buckley for a comment today, but as of press time, he had not returned our call.
