If so, then he may have confirmed (strengthened) his covenant with many on 9/23/2009 at his UN speech which ultimately won him the Nobel Peace Prize.

The tribulation lasts 2520 days, divided into 1185 days for the first half and 1335 days for the second half.

9/23/2009 + 1185 days = 12/21/2012. The Mayan doomsday.

He will travel to Israel after the election and commit the Abomination of Desolation shortly after everyone says "peace and safety" because the world didn't end on Dec 21st. Then, sudden destruction comes. Jesus said to pray the flight be not in winter or on the Sabbath. Dec 21, 2012 is not only the first day of winter, but the Sabbath begins at sundown.

30 days later he will be given authority to continue 1260 days on 1/20/2013, Inauguration Day; ending 1290 days from the Abomination on 7/3/2016 when the wrath of God comes down in the form of the seven bowl judgments. During the final 45 days, the final judgments come and the Dragon, Beast, and False Prophet deceive the world into gathering together at Armageddon, ending on 8/17/2016 at the conclusion of the 1335 days.
