Trump makes unfounded voter fraud claim -- while campaigning for seat opened by GOP cheating

On Monday night, President Donald Trump was in North Carolina to stump for Dan Bishop, a Republican who is competing with Democrat Dan McCready in a special election on Tuesday to fill the Congress seat vacated by former 9th District Rep. Mark Harris (R-NC) after evidence emerged that the Harris campaign was involved in a ballot-tampering scheme.

But in a sign of just how brazen Trump’s lies can be, the president used the occasion not to draw a distinction between Harris’s scandal and Bishop’s campaign but to make baseless accusations that undocumented immigrants are involved in massive voter fraud in California.

“You go to California, which has so many sanctuary cities. They don’t know what’s happening out there,” Trump said. “You have people that want to get rid of those sanctuary cities; they just aren’t able to do it with the people that get elected. A lot of illegal voting going on out there, by the way.”

It's amazing that he gets away with this complete nonsense. I think it shows just how far the cult is into the Kool-Aid.

Others of doing is because he is guilty. He is even dividing the Church. Not every Christian is a right wing evangelical because those others believe in the teachings of Christ. There is no room for division there.

I am reminded of a song our young Pastor played on his guitar. I wondered why it jogged my memory so went home and googled.

To me, it's a clear and present danger not unlike the serpent of Eden beguiling the susceptible with the ultimate Honeycrisp of willful rebellion against whatever name is humanly ascribed to the universe's Creator or other merciful God(s) - "No distinction" may be great in Heaven, but our planet is clearly not that "place" or dimension. Gawd, when the ax drops on his miserable evil mind...I sure hope (in all the connotations of that word) the shock will assist the USA in not needing to judge, detain, or restrain his delusional serpentine mind or body with the consequences of any discipline that civil "rule of law" in the world or in the heavens could enforce. That, BTW, would serve justice best and be priceless! This miscreation of humanity's time is short as is mine, so...Thy will be done! Turn, turn, turn...
