Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

How fucking Christian of him.
I almost wish religion was real, just so Jesus could come back and start smiting Trump and the rest of these fake Christians.
While I agree with the sentiment, we should take a step back.
"Our" religion!? And what would that be? Pretty sure the founding fathers made it damn clear that there was no official religion and we were to separate church and state.
I'm so sick of these Christian fascists that see the handmaid's tale as something to aspire to and the grifting assholes that will drive that into existence for their own personal gain...
I say if we deport anyone it's the people who start forcing their religion on the rest of us.
In theory, yes. There should be a separation of church and state.
In practice though, there are a lot of Republicans who would welcome a fascist theocracy and they're working toward that end. They get away with it because there are so few moderate Christians who are willing to go to war with these assholes.
I was readying the first amendment and that first line really looks like freedom from religion to me.
The religion he's talking about isn't Christianity. Trump wouldn't recognize Jesus Christ if he smacked him in the face. He's talking about Trumpism.
Just for the record... if Jesus came back, he'd do a lot more than smack Trump in the face - I don't want to get into details, but I'd imagine the involvement of a holy flamethrower is a distinct possibility.
As someone who grew up in a religious household but is now agnostic….I sometimes have second thoughts with the fact that trump is basically frame for frame the “antichrist.”…and we were taught that the Antichrist would be “injured” for a short time but they will eventually win and that’s when the NWO, join or die and the mark of the beast shit will happen. Sometimes that gives me pause for the future.
What are your thoughts?
I always thought the antichrist would have to be pretty smart. Either Trump has been playing the long con for the past 60 years or he's the moron so many people who have interacted with him say he is.
But if you don’t look at intelligence, everything that was predicted about the Antichrist is true when it comes to trump. Sometimes my previous upbringing comes up and I start to wonder if he really is the Antichrist
You could ask the same of Hitler, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, or any number of other monsters throughout history though, surely?
It could be that you happen to exist at the same time as Trump so you're picking him out as a candidate. If humanity survives over the next few hundred years, other monsters will present themselves and people in the future will be asking the same question about them.
Hmm you’re right. Hitler was 100% that way too. Thanks for your outward insight
