Whenever a politician prefaces an intention to implement a new policy by saying “God willing” or “with God’s help” it is safe to assume that the Almighty is the last thing on their mind.

A politician invokes the Supreme Being to give the impression that their policies are in accordance with His will. The truth is that God is simply not in the equation, period. It is imperfect human beings who govern, and it is the most conniving and cynical who claim to act in the name of the Creator.

Whenever a corrupt politician, like Donald Trump, mentions Jesus it does not give his words more power, his need to refer to Jesus exposes the weakness of his arguments.

Politics is a dirty business, and a politician should never refer to a deity when making a speech or uttering any statement. That is as unseemly as a sex worker telling her client, “With God’s help I will give you the best blow job of your life.”

In a secular democracy it is anathema for a politician to invoke the name of God. I can imagine God telling hypocritical politicians: Keep my name out of your freaking mouth.

A politician shouldn’t seek help in governing by praying or reading the Bible, but by listening to his constituents.

Word to the wise: Try saying “conceivably” “hopefully” or “possibly” instead of pissing everyone off by saying “God willing.”
