8. The one good thing about the Trump Presidency: It turned Mrs. Aristus from a conservative evangelical into a liberal

atheist.

She had been a lifelong member of the conservative Foursquare Church. I always thought she was too good-hearted, too kind, too loving, and too intelligent to be a conservative Christian, and I was right. (How many conservative Christians do you know who are ardent LGBTQ allies?)
