Trump Man Up and Admit You Wear Diapers

Former President Donald Trump returned to the stage on Saturday night, delivering a speech at the North Carolina Republican Party State Convention, the start of his summer MAGA concert tour.

Trump’s widely anticipated speech was a bomb of biblical proportions, his low-energy delivery barely elicited cheers from the North Carolina party officials. The much-hyped event wasn’t carried by any of the major cable news outlets, not even the Trump-friendly Fox News.

Twitter was in a meltdown after Trump’s address, but of course folks weren’t discussing the substance of his disjointed, incoherent discourse, they were tweeting about the former president apparently having his pants on backward while he addressed the crowd. To my untrained eye it seemed like the moron had his pants on backwards, I could see no zipper and no creases, but according to Snopes.Com he managed to put on his britches on the right way.

I will defer to Snopes the ultimate arbiter of truth on the matter of whether or not Trump had his pants on backwards, but nobody will convince me the senile septuagenarian wasn’t wearing diapers. Any mother who’s dressed a toddler, and every nurse who’s dressed an Alzheimer’s impaired adult noticed the bulge in Trump’s crotch. I’ll bet my life savings against a dollar that Trump’s diapers were full of crap.

Trump is such a monster that he can’t be humanized but if he admitted that he’s incontinent and wears diapers perhaps it might lessen the hatred we feel for him. Many of Trump branded products like Trump vodka, Trump steaks and Trump bottled water have failed miserably, but if he sold Trump diapers, they would outsell Depend diapers before you could say, “Trump is full of crap.” After all, many of his supporters are aging baby boomers who would love to express solidarity with their messiah by donning Trump diapers. Trump be a man, and admit that you wear diapers!

Donald Trump Shuts Down His Blog After Less Than a Month

Donald Trump may brag incessantly about how much he is winning, but the fact is that he’s on a decades-long losing streak.

Trump campaigned for president promising that his success as a businessman would translate into a success as a politician, but he turned out to be an even worse president than he was a real estate developer and businessman.

The list of Trump’s failed business ventures is long and it encompasses decades of incompetence and ineptitude: Trump Airlines, Trump Magazine, Trump Mortgage Company, Trump Steaks, Trump University, Trump Casinos, Trump Vodka, and perhaps his biggest failure: his humiliating 2020 presidential landslide election defeat to Joe Biden.

And now you can add another devastating humiliation to Trump’s litany of failures: the premature demise of his blog called “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump.” The former King of Twitter launched his stillborn blog after he had been permanently banned from Twitter and Facebook.

How the mighty have fallen! When he was president Trump used his tweets to dominate the news cycle, ridicule celebrities, keep Republican congressional leaders in line, intimidate political opponents, and incite an insurrection.

But Trump’s blog wasn’t getting any traction, nobody was up in arms over his latest blog post, and so in frustration and despair he pulled the plug after less than a month.

Donald Trump Remains a Threat to our Democracy

Donald Trump lost in an electoral college and popular vote landslide, refused to concede defeat and promoted the Big Lie that the election was rigged. He then incited an insurrection that ended America’s long history of peaceful transitions of power.

You’d think that a president who mocked the rule of law while he was in office and did everything to undermine his successor who won in a free and fair election would be anathema to citizens of the greatest democracy in the world.

Indeed, Trump is despised by reviled by most Americans who recognize the indelible harm he did to our democracy during his tenure, and he is destined to go down in history as the worst president in our history.

But roughly 40 percent of the electorate sees Trump as a martyr, a savior and as the legitimate president of the United States. Why do so many Americans who are taught from kindergarten the supremacy of democracy idolize an authoritarian leader who undermined the pillar of democracy, the ballot?

Because Trump’s base, white evangelicals, value Christian nationalism over a constitutional democracy, and they worship their orange messiah who feeds them the red meat of racism, misogyny and homophobia over a rational politician who appeals to our better angels.

Trump is not one to go gentle into that good night, unlike every president who lost reelection he hasn’t kept a low profile, on the contrary he’s doing everything possible to undermine the presidency of Joe Biden.

Even though Trump has been banned from the most popular social media platforms he still has a loud voice in politics and popular culture, and we’d be well-advised to prepare for the prospect of him running again in 2024.

Democracy is a fragile thing, and we must constantly defend it with our voices and with our votes. Joe Biden is doing his best to restore our democracy, but Trump remains a threat to our democracy.

Prophet Johnny Enlow Says ‘Vision’ of Donald Trump With ‘Golden Scepter’ Proves He’s President

On April 29, 2021 85 evangelical leaders issued a statement urging prophets who had publicly prophesied that Donald Trump would be president by a specific date that has now passed to apologize.

Evangelical ministers, especially self-styled prophets, think they have a direct line to the Almighty and they are loath to apologize when they utter a false prophecy. These charlatans are put up on a pedestal by their followers, and they are more likely to admit an addiction to pornography than confess that their false prophecy had all the substance of a fart.

Self-described Christian prophet Johnny Enlow predicted that Donald Trump would be reelected, and more than six months after Joe Biden won in an electoral college and popular vote landslide, he’s yet to apologize.

In response from the statement from his brethren calling upon him to apologize, Enlow posted on Facebook a vision he had of Trump seated on a throne holding a golden scepter with a golden crown on his head.

Enlow claimed the vision was Trump’s “PRESENT status from heaven’s perspective.” I’m not a prophet, and I don’t claim to have the gift of being able to see things from heaven’s perspective, but from my earthly perspective Enlow is full of shit, Trump isn’t president and anyone who supports Trump or Enlow is an asshole.

Trump is Physically, Mentally & Spiritually Unfit to Run for President in 2024

“Rev. Franklin Graham, head of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and one of former President Trump’s earliest and most influential evangelical Christian backers, told Axios on HBO it would ‘be a very tough thing’ for Trump to seek a second term in 2024. ‘I think for him, everything will depend on his health at that time,’ said Graham, 68.”

Yahoo News

No shit, Franklin Graham! You don’t have to be a theologian or a physician to deduce that a 74-year-old morbidly obese man with a history of heart disease and a penchant for fast food is too out of shape physically to run for president in 2024.

Not only is Donald Trump physically disqualified from running for president, but he is also mentally unqualified from holding the most stressful job in the world. If Trump were your father, grandfather or great-grandfather you would call an ambulance to take him to a neurologist for an evaluation of his cognitive health. You don’t have to be a doctor to see that Trump’s elevator doesn’t reach the top floor, it’s stuck in his fat ass. He’s the poster boy for Alzheimer’s disease, he doesn’t remember names and places, I only hope one of his aides reminds him to change his diaper on a regular basis.

As a minister Graham should primarily be concerned with Trump’s spiritual health, and as a prophet of God he should speak truth to power and proclaim that he is spiritually unfit to be president of the United States.

Alas, the misogynist, homophobic and racist Graham is as unfit to be a minister as Trump is unfit to be president. I wish Graham and Trump would drop dead or at least shut the hell up.

Donald Trump is a Pimp and His White Evangelical Followers are Hoes

Donald Trump loved the pomp and circumstance of the presidency in the same manner that a pimp loves the perks of his profession, the diamond-encrusted pimp stick, the gold-plated pimp cup and the tricked-out Cadillac Escalade.

Trump loved disembarking from Air Force One and strutting to a lectern emblazoned with the presidential seal and addressing his supporters who would hang on his every inane word, he was a master of the pimp game.

But Trump hated the actual work of running the country, he spent his mornings in bed watching the cable news programs, strolled to the Oval Office at noon to give his aides an opportunity to tell him what a great job he was doing, played golf in the afternoon, and topped of the day by tweeting until the early morning hours.

When Trump was president, he was the happiest when he was holding a MAGA rally, a cult leader craves and needs the adulation of his disciples. Trump has fooled himself into believing that he won the election and that he’s still the legitimate president, and next month he will start holding MAGA rallies again.

I expect enthusiastic crowds at his rallies, and his white evangelical followers to worship him as their messiah, with the expectation that the rallies will hasten the Second Coming of Donald Trump.

But I also expect the mainstream media to ignore his rallies, pundits to criticize his narcissism and late-night comics to mock him mercilessly.

A pimp’s mantra is “Pimps Up, Ho’s Down”, and Trump’s slogan is “I rule, and my followers bow down.”

If only white evangelicals would realize that they ain’t nothing but Trump’s hoes.

If Jesus Returned Today He Would Embrace Biden and His Atheist Supporters and Rebuke Trump and His White Evangelical Followers

Donald Trump’s 2015 presidential campaign was awash in shock and scandal and his tenure in office was mired in corruption, incompetence, amorality and chaos. Nevertheless, white evangelicals voted for him in overwhelming numbers in 2015, and after four years of Trump fuckery 85% of them voted to reelect him.

Joe Biden conducted a presidential campaign devoid of drama, corruption and the politics of personal destruction, and his first 100 days in office have been scandal free, and yet only 23% of white evangelicals approve of his work in office.

It should be noted that 89% of Black Protestants and 80% of Hispanic Catholics support the current president, compared to just half of white Catholics and white non-evangelical Protestants. (All of the data that I have mentioned is from the Pew Research Center.)

Biden has overwhelming support from those who are atheist, agnostic or unaffiliated with organized religions.

What facts can we deduce from this statistics?

First of all, white evangelicals have strayed from the faith, and they have replaced the love and compassion of the Jesus of the Gospels for the hatred and enmity of their orange messiah, Donald Trump.

An ungodly lust for earthly power has corrupted white evangelicals; black and Hispanic evangelicals, for the most part, remain faithful to their main mission of loving thy neighbor and preaching the Gospel.

Secondly, that a belief in a deity isn’t required or necessary to possess a moral compass. It’s the “children of God” who worship the filthy beast, Donald Trump and the atheists and agnostics who support the compassionate and kind, Joe Biden. White evangelicals and their orange savior are destined for the dustbin of history. If Jesus Christ returned today, he would break bread with Joe Biden and his supporters, including the atheists and agnostics, and condemn and rebuke Trump and his white evangelical followers.

Republicans Must Disavow Donald Trump, Their Cheeto Jesus

“The View’s Meghan McCain on Wednesday went off on the Republican Party for pushing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) out of a leadership position over her anti-Trump stance, calling the GOP a ‘sausagefest of MAGA’ that has rallied around a ‘Cheeto Jesus.’

Daily Beast

Meghan McCain didn’t break any new ground by dissing and dismissing Donald Trump as “Cheeto Jesus.” Detractors have been calling him that since he became the Republican frontrunner in 2015. What else can you call a gross freak with an unnatural orange complexion who is treated like the Second Coming of Jesus Christ by his followers?

Why is “Cheeto Jesus” the perfect nickname for Donald Trump? Let’s count the ways:

I love me some Cheetos, but it’s impossible to eat the addictive cheese curls without the orange dye making your fingers as orange as a pumpkin. Likewise, it’s impossible to be in Trump’s orbit without his shitty essence smearing your body and soul.

Cheetos are delicious, but if you eat too many you will gain weight and end up with a stomachache.  Likewise, too much of Trump in your life and in your politics and you will become physically and spiritually ill.

Cheetos are a light and fluffy snack with no substance, you would be well-advised to eat a healthy and well-balanced meals and only occasionally eat the yummy snack. Likewise, Trump is a lightweight who has no substance or moral core, and no serious person will ever look to him for political or moral guidance.

White evangelicals have replaced the kind, gentle and pure Jesus Christ of the Gospels with the cruel, coarse and corrupt Donald Trump. They will burn at the stake any infidel or apostate who doesn’t buy Trump’s Big Lie.

The GOP needs a political exorcism, the party has no viable future until they disavow their Cheeto Jesus.

Franklin Graham: Trump is One of the Finest Christians

Franklin Graham: Donald Trump is one of the finest Christians I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing.

If this quote emanated from the Vatican or from the lips of any respected mainline Protestant minister, it would be shocking and disheartening.

But Graham is a white evangelical leader whose best friends and confidants are other white evangelical ministers, and we have become accustomed to evangelicals uttering outrageous and un-Christian statements.

Evangelicalism is synonymous with racism, misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia and authoritarianism, and it should come as no surprise that Graham proclaims that the racist, corrupt, petty and immoral Trump is a fine Christian.

Graham and his ilk wouldn’t recognize a fine Christian if they traveled back in time and witnessed Jesus healing the sick, feeding the hungry, and speaking words of peace and comfort.

Trump is a steaming pile of dung, but to his credit he’s never claimed to be an evangelical Christian. At best he’s a nominal Christian who attends church only on Easter and Christmas, and who has a penchant for holding the Bible upside down.

But in spite of the fact that Trump doesn’t claim to be an evangelical, white evangelicals worship Trump as a messiah figure because he appointed pro-life judges and he shares their antipathy toward gays and lesbians, immigrants and racial and religious minorities.

God: Franklin Graham is one of the worst Christians I’ve ever had the misfortune of creating and a primary reason why Christian theologians have a devil of a time proving I’m omniscient and omnipotent.

In Hannity Interview Trump Urges Americans to Get Vaccinated

Former President Donald Trump, who botched the fight against the coronavirus pandemic, urged Americans to get vaccinated against the virus in a Monday night interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity.

Trump told Hannity that he encouraged Republicans to be vaccinated and wasn’t sure why his followers were hesitant to take the shot.

Why is there vaccine hesitancy in Trump world?

Maybe it’s because when Trump was president, he downplayed the pandemic, dismissing is as nothing more than “the flu.”

Maybe it’s because he received his vaccine in secret, if he really wanted to inspire his base to be vaccinated, he would have filmed himself taking the shot.

Maybe it’s because he hasn’t filmed a public service commercial urging his devotees to be vaccinated.

Maybe it’s because he disparaged the physicians and scientists in his coronavirus task force, and instead led his science-denying evangelical supporters to believe that the pandemic would disappear miraculously.

Maybe it’s because he didn’t plead with evangelical leaders to urge their disciples to do the right thing, the Christian thing, and get vaccinated.

It’s not too late for Trump to do the right thing, if he begged his admirers to get vaccinated as a demonstration of faith in him, they would get in line to be injected with the vaccine.

Johnny Enlow Says People Will Understand Trump’s Bravery When They Get to Heaven

“Pastor Johnny Enlow, a conservative Christian who has been described by some as a ‘prophetic leader,’ said that people will understand and ‘respect’ former President Donald Trump more once they get to Heaven.

Enlow and his wife Elizabeth Enlow are the founders of Restore 7 ministry based in Tennessee. Johnny Enlow appeared on a recent episode of The Elijah List program, discussing Trump and how people view the former president. Right Wing Watch first reported the pastor’s remarks.

‘The weaker, more imperfect that a vessel is—the more glory God gets from using him to accomplish what he wanted to accomplish. Having said that, we are going to respect and honor President Trump a whole lot more in Heaven once we understood the courage and bravery of what he’s had to do and put up with,’ Enlow said.”

Newsweek

The Good Book says, “For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” God works in mysterious ways and when we get to heaven what our now mysteries will become self-evident truths.

When I die, whether I ascend to heaven, descend to hell, am reincarnated as a snail or simply cease to exist, I won’t lose my sanity and morality and gain newfound respect for the twice-impeached former president.

For a religious leader to assign the virtues of courage and bravery to the most corrupt and manifestly evil president in history is blasphemy and spiritual malpractice.

If by some cosmic misfortune I ended up in Enlow’s version of heaven, and Jehovah waxed eloquently about the courage and bravery of Donald Trump, I would tell Him to shut the hell up and let me try my chances with Satan.

Enlow is not an aberration, he is representative of how evangelicals think and believe, most white evangelical leaders have repeatedly praised the former president, and about 85 percent of white evangelicals voted to reelect Trump.

Donald Trump is a racist and cowardly clown, and when I die regardless in what plane of existence I find myself in, contrary to Enlow’s vain babblings, my opinion of the former president will not change.

Senate Republicans Reward Trump for His Profane Mar-a-Lago Speech by Giving Him an Award

“This weekend, NRSC Chairman Rick Scott presented President Donald J. Trump with the NRSC’s inaugural Champion for Freedom Award.

This award is presented to conservative leaders who have worked tirelessly to create good jobs, protect the values that make our country great, and stop the Democrats’ socialist agenda.”

National Republican Senatorial Committee Press Release

On Saturday night at Mar-a-Lago in a speech to Republican donors a flood of diarrhea emanated from Donald Trump’s sphincter-shaped mouth. He doubled down on the Big Lie that the election was stolen from him and he attacked Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell as a “dumb son of a bitch.”

Today the NRSC rewarded Trump for his undemocratic, anti-Republican and profane tirade by presenting him with the inaugural “Champion for Freedom Award.”

Trump seemed to realize that this award is a sham because he didn’t bother to put on a sports coat, he was photographed receiving the award in his signature MAGA hat and short sleeve shirt.

Obviously, Trump doesn’t deserve this award: he worked tirelessly to grift his own supporters, he attacked the values that make this country great, and the Democrats don’t have a socialist agenda.

The GOP senators rewarded Trump after his execrable speech, proving that their party is rotten to the core. The Republican Party is terminally infected with Trumpism, and if our democracy is to survive the electorate must strengthen President Joe Biden’s hand by increasing the Democrats’ majority in the House and Senate in the mid-term elections.

A Donald Trump Painting Is Coming to the National Portrait Gallery

“A portrait of former President Trump will be unveiled in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C. when it reopens, Washingtonian reports.

Trump’s portrait will be the latest addition to the museum’s ‘America’s Presidents’ gallery, a permanent exhibit within the museum.”

The Hill

The permanent exhibit has a painting of every former commander-in-chief, so the inclusion of the portrait of the twice-impeached disgraced former president was a formality.

The portrait is temporary, official presidential portraits can take years to be completed. The final work of art is still in its initial phase of creation; the curator of the museum should have installed a Jim Carrey caricature of the president until the final portrait is ready.

I’m not an artist, I can barely draw stick figures, but I think I can paint a reasonable facsimile of Trump: bright orange crayon for his countenance, brown for his sphincter-shaped lips, red, and white, and blue to lend his triple chin a patriotic look.  

When the official Trump portrait is unveiled, I expect a steady stream of MAGA faithful making a pilgrimage to the National Portrait Gallery. Doubtless, all sorts of miracles will be attributed to the Trump portrait:

“When I gazed upon his face my manhood grew about four inches and now all the Republican ladies always invite me to their prayer meetings.”

“His portrait was shedding tears, and when I touched an orange teardrop I was instantly and miraculously cured of gout and incontinence.”

“It winked at me, my God it winked at me. That’s a message from the Almighty that I must visit Mar-a-Lago and let Trump grab the bejesus out of my pussy.”

I for one will not be waiting with bated breath for the unveiling of the official Trump portrait.

Trump Wax Figure Removed From Public View After Visitors Attack It

“A wax figure of former President Donald Trump was temporarily removed from Louis Tussaud’s Waxworks in San Antonio, Texas, after sustaining damage from customers.”

USA Today

It’s not uncommon for wax figures to sustain damage by visitors as part of normal wear and tear, but the damage that the Trump effigy sustained can’t be attributed to normal wear and tear.

Customers had such a visceral reaction to Trump’s wax figure that they punched, scratched and clawed at it.

The pummeling that was inflicted on the Trump likeness wasn’t a commentary on its artistic quality, but on the racism, xenophobia, homophobia and corruption that the flesh and blood Trump represents.

The narcissistic Trump is probably apoplectic that his wax representation was removed from public view, because surely, he knows that that there will be precious few statues erected to celebrate the worst president in history.

In a way I’m sorry that the Trump simulacrum was put in storage because it served a useful role as an outlet for our outrage for how Trump almost destroyed our democracy in four short years.

It’s just too bad that the real Trump can’t be put away in storage in a nursing home for the criminally insane.

Evangelical ‘Prophet’ Jeff Jansen Claims Military Will Reinstate Trump as President

A plethora of evangelical pastors and self-appointed prophets predicted that their false messiah Donald Trump would win reelection, claiming it was God’s will.

When that prophecy didn’t failed to materialize, a handful apologized and admitted they were wrong. Jeremiah Johnson was one of the most famous of these self-styled evangelical prophets who apologized for his false prophecy. His evangelical brethren showered him with death threats, and he ended up dismantling his prophetic ministry.

Evangelical ministers will never admit that their cherished false conspiracy theories are bullshit, even when confronted with science, empirical evidence and reality itself. That’s why most of these so-called prophets still insist Trump is the legitimate president and Joe Biden is an interloper who will soon be cast down by Almighty God.

Jeff Jansen, a self-proclaimed prophet believes that former president Donald Trump is still the legitimate president and that the military will remove Joe Biden from power. Jansen is urging his followers to keep the faith and trust that God will reinstate Trump to power by the end of April.

It would have made more sense had Jansen predicted April 1, 2021 as the day when Trump is reinstated as president, Jansen and his ilk are the biggest April Fools jokes.

Of course, April 30, 2021 will come and go, and Joe Biden will still be the president. If Old Testament prophets uttered a false prophecy they were stoned to death, but today’s evangelical prophets can make one false prophesy after another, without losing any of their gullible and ignorant followers.

Donald Trump Buddha Statue a Hit in China

Donald Trump had a hawkish, hostile and confrontational policy toward China, and his anti-China rhetoric, such as calling the coronavirus the Chinese flu, was outright racist.

Therefore, it’s not surprising that China’s commercial websites offer a variety of anti-Trump products, including toilet paper rolls with Trump’s mug printed on them, a toilet brush shaped like Trump’s wispy urine-colored hair, and T-shirts printed with satirical cartoons of him.

But the latest trend in Trump merchandising in China is a surprise: a statue of Trump, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in a Zen position, draped in a robe.

Trump Buddha? Trump isn’t known for his calm and peaceful demeanor. When Trump is criticized, I doubt he assumes a Zen pose and meditates and contemplates how he should respond to his critics.

Chinese aren’t as stereotypically inscrutable as they are portrayed in the West. The Trump Buddha statue is described as “Dong (know it all) Buddha of the West”, it’s a mock tribute to the Man Baby we in America hate so much.

Lindsey Graham Sees “Magic” in the Steaming Pile of Manure Known as Donald Trump

Senator Lindsey Graham’s virulent 2015 attacks on presidential candidate Trump transformed into adulation once the reality show buffoon accomplished the seemingly impossible and won the election. The vehement critic transformed into a subservient fluffer, because the senator from North Carolina cares more about political power than he does about morality and democracy.  A profile in courage, he’s not.

Throughout Trump’s chaotic four-year term, Graham made excuses and justifications for the president’s myriad acts of racism, incompetence and corruption.

After Trump’s incitement led to the storming of the Capitol, Graham finally broke with Trump. “Count me out. Enough is enough”, he thundered on the Senate floor.

A few days later Graham was verbally attacked at an airport by a handful of MAGA faithful for his betrayal of Graham, and the cowardly senator returned to the fold, and once again defended Trump.

Graham further prostrated himself before his orange deity this weekend when he declared there was some “magic” in the disgraced twice-impeached former president.

“There’s something about Trump. There’s a dark side and there’s some magic there. What I’m trying to do is harness the magic,” Graham blathered.

There is no magic in Trump, there never was. There’s only a bottomless pit of cruelty, racism, pettiness, misogyny, homophobia, incompetence, corruption …

Only a spiritually blind and politically pragmatic fool like Graham will see any magic in the steaming pile of dog shit known as Donald Trump.

RNC Says it Has the Right to Use Trump’s Name and Likeness for Fundraising

Donald Trump sent out cease-and-desist letters to the three largest fundraising entities for the Republican Party, the RNC, NRCC and NRSC, for using his name and likeness on fundraising emails and merchandise.

What a sad state of affairs that the Trump name which is synonymous with racism, fascism, misogyny, and homophobia is effective in eliciting funds for the GOP.

It’s disturbing that his likeness (orange complexion, mouth that resembles a sphincter and raccoon eyes) is an effective advertising image.

This is a devastating indictment on the Republicans who respond in a positive way to the name and image of the disgraced and diminished twice-impeached former president.

Trump is apoplectic that his name is being used by Republican fundraising organization to help Republicans who voted to impeach him. Trump cares more about exacting revenge on the Republicans who voted to impeach him, than he does about helping the GOP win elections.

The RNC flat-out rejected Trump’s cease-and-desist demand, arguing that it “has every right to public figures as it engages in core, First Amendment-protected political speech.”

The RNC had no choice but to reject Trump’s demand, the GOP is the party of Trump, and there is no way that they can effectively raise funds without invoking the name of their messiah.

Why can’t the Republicans see that their embrace of the narcissistic, racist, and downright evil Trump will doom them to a minor party status.

Republicans Obsessed With Stoking the Culture Wars

Republican leaders stoke the culture wars as a means of energizing their base and building a campaign war chest. The Republican faithful are primed to storm the Capitol to stop the evil Democrats from banishing The Muppets, Dr. Seuss, Goya, Mr. Potato Head and the My Pillow guy.

If you listen exclusively to right wing media cable news outlets like Fox News and Newsmax you’d think that democracy was in an existential threat of being undermined by the raging culture wars. Republicans are terrified that America will fall to communism if Liberals succeed in cancelling Roseanne Barr, Jon Voight, Mr. Potato Head, the My Pillow fraudster and Donald Trump.

Conservative pundits, preachers and politicians have their panties in a twist over what they describe as out of control PC culture.

The mainstream media may have light-hearted segments on Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head, but it’s not culture wars 24/7.

President Joe Biden and his administration aren’t preoccupied with the culture wars.

“I don’t think there is any danger in ignoring a debate on Mr. Potato Head and Dr. Seuss,” said John Anzalone, a Biden adviser and campaign pollster.

Biden has more important things on his plate: passing the massive COVID-19 relief package and bringing the pandemic under control.

If only Republican congressional leaders would stop playing with Mr. Potato Head, put down their Dr Seuss books and help Democrats in fighting the pandemic, ending systemic racism, building our infrastructure, and protecting voting rights.

The Trump Republican Party is Destined for Defeat

Donald Trump suffered a popular vote and electoral landslide defeat to Joe Biden, and subsequently he was impeached for the second time for inciting an insurrection against his own government.

Trump is 74, morbidly obese and odds are that he will suffer a heart attack, or a stroke caused by either his violent temper or unhealthy diet before he can run for president again in 2024.

After having lost the House, the Senate, and the presidency, you’d think Republican congressional leaders who avoid him like the plague, after all there’s nothing that politicians hate more than losers.

But the former commander-in-chief holds court at Mar-a-Lago as if he was a king, basking in the presence of sycophants who paid hundreds of thousands for membership fees in his country club.

Republican leaders make pilgrimages to Mar-a-Lago to kiss his fat ass and pledge undying loyalty.

And millions of his white evangelical supporters still prostate themselves before him and treat him as the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

The Republican party has lost its integrity, relevance, and legitimacy by clinging so pathetically to such an amoral loser, and the white evangelical movement has lost its morality, relevance, and spiritual vitality by worshiping a false messiah.

I predict that Biden or Harris will soundly beat the corrupt Republican presidential nominee in 2024, makes no difference if its Trump or one of his clones.

Trump Golden Calf Statue on Sale for $1000,000 at CPAC

Trumpalooza, also known as CPAC ends Sunday with a rousing speech by the star of the extravaganza, Donald Trump. It’s the annual conference during which conservatives come together to network, discuss policies, showcase presidential hopefuls, and chart the course for the future of the conservative movement. This year’s iteration of the conference is dedicated solely to the glorification of the false messiah, Donald Trump.

No festival would be complete without overpriced merchandise, and CPAC is no different. All things Trump are available at CPAC including hand-crafted luxury Trump hammocks, 2024 Trump bumper stickers, impeachment champ T-Shirts and “don’t me I voted for Trump” buttons. I bet the average Trump evangelical cultist would rather browse in the gift shops at CPAC featuring Trump paraphernalia than walk the streets of gold in heaven with Jesus Christ.

But what do you get the Trump devotee who already has all the aforementioned Trump items including the hammock?

The bizarre gold statue of the disgraced former president, that has been the runaway hit of the conference, is on sale for a cool $1000,000. The golden idol weighs 200 pounds, almost as much as the blimp it represents.

Are you a white evangelical POS who idolizes Trump? Do you think your messiah’s farts smell like heavenly incense? Do you worship the ground he walks on? Then don’t leave CPAC with a lousy T-Shirt! Demonstrate you reverence for your Dear Leader by purchasing the Trump Golden Calf idol! Take out a second mortgage if that’s the only way you can afford the abomination.

Trump Golden Calf Statue Worshiped at CPAC

Republican politicians, conservative media personalities and activists are gathering in Florida for the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).

Former President Donald Trump will be the headliner of the show in Orlando, delivering a Sunday afternoon speech, in which he is expected to tease a 2024 presidential run and continue to preach the Big Lie that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him.

All the preliminary speakers are expected to minor on conservative policy positions and to major on the magnificence of their false messiah. CPAC should be renamed TPAC, considering that this political conference isn’t intended to advance the conservative agenda but glorify Donald Trump.

Trump acolytes constructed a golden statue of Trump and wheeled it out to cheers from conference attendees. Reminiscent of the Biblical story of the Golden Calf, is it not? Even people who are biblically illiterate are familiar with the story of the Golden Calf. The Israelites, newly freed from Egyptian slavery, angry and impatient that Moses is taking to long talking with Jehovah on Mount Sinai melt down their golden jewelry to construct a golden calf to worship.

The party of Abraham Lincoln and Ronald Reagan is now the party of Trump, and the Republican platform has been replaced by the Trump cult of personality.

White evangelicals who make up the largest part of Trump’s base abandoned their commitment to the Biblical principles of honesty, integrity, propriety, and morality and embraced a devil whose speech, behavior and actions are antithetical to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Jehovah punished the faithless Israelites by making them wander for 40 years in the wilderness, and the political gods will punish the Republicans’ embrace of Trump by making them wander in the political wilderness of defeat and irrelevance for generations.

Outrage: Newsmax Anchor Greg Kelly Disses Joe Biden’s Dog Champ

Newsmax is such an ultra-conservative cable news outlet that it makes Fox News seem like the Daily Kos, and the reactionary anchors never miss an opportunity to diss Biden.

Newsmax anchor Greg Kelly ridiculed the appearance of President Joe Biden’s dog Champ on his program.

“Did you see the dog?” Kelly asked, referring to Champ. “Doesn’t he look a little, uh, a little rough? I love dogs, but this dog needs a bath and a comb and all kinds of love and care. I’ve never seen a dog in the White House like this.”

Kelly then compared Champ to Buddy, former President Clinton’s Labrador retriever, and Millie, former President George H.W. Bush’s English springer spaniel.

“I remember Buddy. I remember Millie. I remember lots of dogs but not a dog who seems — I don’t know. I don’t know how much love and care he is getting,” Kelly said.

I love dogs and I also remember Buddy and Millie, but I don’t remember any pooches in the Trump White House. There’s a million and one reasons to hate Trump: his racism, misogyny, fascism, incompetence, pettiness … But the fact that he doesn’t like pets means that he is completely beyond redemption.

Instead of commenting on the pathology of a person who doesn’t like pets, Kelly mocks the appearance of a beautiful 12-year-old senior rescue dog. The Bidens love their dogs, it’s not uncommon to see them walking their beautiful pets on the White House grounds.

If Newsmax’s CEO had a shred of integrity Kelly would be in the doghouse for libeling Champ, and by extension his owners.

It’s patently obvious that the only dog Kelly likes is the filthy mongrel Donald Trump.

The PDA’s Between Joe Biden and Dr. Jill Biden are Sweet and Heartwarming!

Donald and Melania Trump were infamous for their PDA’s (Public Displays of Animosity: the countless times Melania swatted away her husband’s disgusting tiny hands, the frozen stares between the couple, the several times Trump failed to cover Melania with his umbrella …

You don’t have to be a political scientist or a marriage counselor to discern that the Trump’s marriage isn’t a romantic fairy tale but a marriage of convenience. Sparks will rarely fly between a trophy wife and her doddering old husband.

Joe and Jill Biden are infamous for their PDA’s (Public Displays of Affection). Since Inauguration Day, the first couple hasn’t been shy about expressing the love they have for each other.

Joe Biden has been rightly criticized for being too handsy with the spouses and female children of politicians, but at least he’s also very affectionate with his wife of 43 years.

Whether it’s a tender kiss before boarding Marine One or holding hands as they walk their dogs, the love and affection between the Bidens is an expression of their sincere love and it’s a wonder to behold.

The PDA’s between President Biden and Dr. Biden aren’t ostentatious or gratuitous, but heartwarming. They don’t make us cringe, instead they make us smile at delightful display of an elderly couple still in love with each other.

I wish the Bidens a happy Valentine’s Day.

Jill Biden Decorates White House Lawn With Giant Hearts for Valentine’s Day

First lady Dr. Jill Biden decorated the North Lawn of the White House for Valentine’s Day with candy-heart sentiments as a message of hope and healing for Americans.

This simple gesture is a soothing balm for a country recuperating from the four years of Trump administration fuckery.

The Bidens and their two German shepherds, Champ and Major went for an unscheduled stroll to view Dr. Biden’s handiwork, with a pool of reporters and a C-SPAN crew in tow.

Dr. Jill was sensibly dressed for the frigid weather in a long raspberry coat and black boots, and Joe was wearing a black leather jacket and faded jeans. A casually dressed couple, wearing face masks, walking their dogs is the shot of normal behavior that we so desperately need in these troubled times. The fact that this normal couple happens to be the First Couple gives us hope that we may just be able to return to normalcy after four years of chaos.

This heartwarming scene could never have occurred during the Trump administration, the disgraced president didn’t have any pets in the White House, and I doubt he kept any jeans in his closets.

In an interaction with the press the Bidens debated with each other over who loved each other the most. Can you imagine if the Trumps argued about who loved each other the most, the press would break out in laughter.

I’m going to have a terrific Valentine’s Day and a peaceful next four years in the knowledge that Joe and Jill Biden, and Champ and Major are in the White House.
