May their righteous lips forever be stuck to his big, curdling, fat ass.

Again, the impact on ALL of small "c" christianity is the ONLY thing I can summon a smirk for when thinking of this abominable administration.

2. What a wonderful event, especially considering the son prostituted himself to Trump.

You couldn't have posted a more outstanding article to discover during this obnoxious week.

As the article says, her announcement beats her uncle's appearance on the last night of the convention by one day!

Or, 'Why I haven't watch TV politics/news since last Friday'

I'm not stepping near the psychotic insane train rolling thru this week. I spend about 15 min a day checking a couple old reliable twitter accts & DU for updates & that's it.

I'm holding out for the Maddow/Cohen big reveal, & until then I'm watching the weather chan for hurricane updates.

I just refuse to alow the current chaos of TV News into my home this week.

This article is like the Conway daughter emancipating herself cuz she just can't take one more day of the big fat lie.
Either she & Billy Graham's grandaughter have to break from the pack to simply preserve what coping skills remain, or we're all being bamboozeled by the drive to be instantly recognized social media influencers & they really don't believe the shit they profess.

Who freaking knows at this point.

I'm apt to believe the 2 young ladys are truthful in their purpose. I cannot imagine living among the extremes of either of their situations.


Ya know what else, Judi Lynn, if Putin's goal was to create division & chaos among the American people, he hit the jackpot.

Cripe.

Thanks for the space to rant... 👍🥂

4. I hope someone writes a book about how and why evangelicals betrayed their own principles

to support such a Godless, dishonest, cruel demagogue.

Are they that desperate for any kind of power and to feel they are important?

I grew up in that environment, so I understand somewhat, they are fanatical about abortion. But I always thought there was a limit to their subservience to such unChristian behaviour in their leaders.

And the partisanship. It would be different if they criticized both parties. One for being too liberal with pro-choice legislation, LGBTQ rights, etc., but why not the other one for the blatant corruption and lawlessness. The cruelty of separating mothers from children and caging them. Just the daily lies.
