Lightning strikes Chicago's Trump Tower during state primary

Is this a good sign from God...or a bad sign?

As the polls closed in Illinois on Tuesday during the Democratic and GOP primaries, a massive storm came rolling into Chicago where ten tornadoes damaged buildings. Lightning in the sky flashed, striking the Trump Tower next to the Chicago River.

Michael Vithoulkas captured video of the timely moment and posted it to his Instagram page.

"Lightning storm ironically hitting the #Trump building on #supertuesday," read the caption.

Vithoulkas tells the Boston Globe that the lightning struck the building around 10:45 p.m....45 minutes after Trump was declared the winner of Illinois in the states primary election.

"There was a lot of lightning in the sky, but that was the only building that got hit that I saw," he said.

Commenters had their own theories on what it all means.

"That means God is not playing do not vote for Donald Trump," wrote skittlez30.

User @gerardi212 commented, "#Makinglightninggreatagain."

Many speculate whether the video is just too good to be true, but Vithoulkas says it's real.

"There were definitely people who commented on it thinking it was fake, but it's 100 percent real."
