    What actually is so special about Trump besides the fact that he wants to become a dictator, a thing the average Trump supporter doesn’t even acknowledge? Most of the other republican candidates believe stuff just as backwards and dangerous as he does.

      I may be mistaken but wasn’t there a striking similarity to past monsters in that prior to committing their atrocities that their supporters believed they were exaggerating or just outright lying about their intentions? Ex the Association of German National Jews endorsing Adolf Hitler.

      he hates the same people they do. The LGBTQ… the women… the brown people and the poors.

      evangelic christianity is less about… the teachings of jesus, and more … a cult of hatred.

    It’s another great reason to expel “god” from my life. I would not want to have to honor to any god that would give us an excremental pile of pigshit like trump.

    I mean… If the theory is that every baby born is thanks to god… Trump would fit the bill, no need to discuss anything else. Like it gave you Trump like it gave you Epstein.
