Not to mention, to actual Christians.

Hes not a real Christian. He's the kind who only listen to what his inner voices tell him which justify his mindset. He feels God is not doing his work, so he's gonna do it himself. His Bible is probably gathering dust in a basement somewhere.

BTW, as anyone asked him what part of the Trump policies conforms to the Bible?

He compared himself with Moses, with a straight face. I want to know how many rubes (&or rich assholes) enabled him enough to even get him into the House in the first place.

Donald is such a weak and small man not to mention absolutely no negotiating skills whatsoever.

if the opposition COLLECTIVELY confronted his directives, his true autocratic and dictatorship cover would be exposed and you will find Republicans who will agree that he has crossed the line, perhaps - and very big perhaps - the corporate media and MAGA's with a marginal sense of reason might open their eyes. We would all find out that this paper tiger places all his power on loyalty......except that this loyalists or in it for the money and/or the power

This goes for Trump/MAGA’s domestic AND international opposition. Yes, it should be coordinated and collective.

These authoritarians divide us to conquer us. One problem with liberals is the instinct to “compromise” and “negotiate”. We have arrived at a point where illegitimate and unconstitutional powers are being executed against us. Lines have been crossed, and confrontation will probably be unavoidable, mostly because governing has become dominance for its own sake, or to extract our wealth and freedoms.

Trump and much of MAGA is not a traditional political movement in our society. It seeks to treat us as subjects to be ordered around, dominated and abused in order to enhance the amusement and assuage the perceived cultural grievances of its members. It is a political cult that is less interested in legitimate political ends than it is in causing others pain. It’s an organizing principle.

Appeasement will just strengthen that movement. It must be told NO, and its opponents need to confront it COLLECTIVELY. That might mean all blue states withholding their tax dollars and deploying militias to defend their states. They might have to force their banks and other businesses to cooperate.

We haven’t arrived there, yet, but we may get there sooner than we think because the cult won’t stop on its own and will just feed on weakness.

I haven’t arrived at full court bloody revolution yet because The Orange Turd’s ploy is to get his loyalists in place in the military leadership. This coupled with the high underground number of military soldiers who are avowed trumpists make for a difficult problem. I say we continue hammering the corporate media journalists for their lack of reporting non-adherence to the Democratic principles of the Constitution and forcing them to report on this administrations many failings. (Ex: interviews with Trump voters about prices of consumer goods, why equating rounding up undocumented immigrants with cleaning up crime while releasing 1600 proven criminals, etc.,)

I also think we need to pressure the fourth estate’s journalists to push their inner professional integrity and confront the politicians live and on camera so to speak, because all our pleadings directly to the politicos falls on deaf ears does not seem to work. They will ignore our calls and texts and emails, but interviews are ego-driven.

Just like Trump uses the media to get his lies out there, journalists need to question him and his people live and on camera with researched facts about their lies constantly so that they either answer the questions or get flooded with negative coverage.

IF OUR PLEADINGS TO POLITICOS DONT WORK, WE NEED TO HOLD JOURNALISTS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR LACK OF REPORTING THE TRUTH, AND NOT NECESARILY “ BOTH SIDES” OF THE STORY.

Matthew Yglesias wrote a piece about how wrong he judged Biden, then followed it up with another negatively slanted story about Biden and Harris, as if to tell the Turd’s people, “ Hey guys, I’m still on your side! Just had to appease those pesky Demo readers.”

They did it to Biden and Harris and the GOP loved it. Time for the professional journalists like Jim Acosta to turn the tables. We should not let corporate media continue their subtle support of the criminals in power, against the tenets of our constitutional rights for facts and truths.

We need the spineless mainstream media and oligarchs to remember our founding principles and get back on the democracy train. Not holding my breath. 🤬

I made a quick glance in corporate media to see how they covered the crash. Naturally, a lot of coverage on The Orange Turd’s erroneous and racist claim that DEI was the reason.

But I had to reach out to my trusted Substack to find out The Turd and deputy POTUS Musk got rid of the aviation advisor board and there was no head in the aviation dept PLUS he is requesting cuts in FAA staff

Corporate media dis not point this out AT ALL.

Let us hope! Maybe Trump's attempt to pass the blame to Dems and DEI for this tragic air crash that occurred on his watch will be the straw that broke the camel's back. Again, not holding my breath 🤬

He’s never had to negotiate when he can buy off the opposition. So he never learned when he’s losing, instead belittling and humiliating the opposition.

Ah the ole no true Scottsman.

At the end of the day he's a perfect example of the problem with Christianity in the America, though.

If the GOP aren't "real Christians," then lets see some pushback from our extensive network of churches to set the record straight on what "real" Christianity is. Spoilers: it won't happen. This is who the vast majority of them really are.

He is a particularly weak “leader”. These Republicans have handed over their balls to Trump. And to think all of these macho men voted these guys on because “women are weak”.

But, fascism is the ideology of weak men who need mobs to feel powerful. The real leader reduces them all to dick suckers.

History has shown that there is not a single autocratic leader who has left or passed on with their head held high. They'd rather run to another country, die like cowards or committed suicide (Hitler)

Often true, no contest. Once in

A while someone wins the top seat. An "enlightened despot".

Actually most dictators, established or aspiring, claim to be one. Obviously few deserve the title! Besides, even if true! This "leader", a true protector of the nation, successful, trusted, loved even, dies. And very, very seldom, is followed by another such leader. There are so few people of quality around. All the truer with those arrogant .... hooked on power, on money or on 100 year old Cognnac or tick-tacks even.

Jazz Paw is articulating the conservative mindset that “women are weak.” This is not his personal statement. In fact, the statement is more in line with our disdain for those who think “women are weak.” I certainly don’t.

What a great description!! A small statured creature, NOT MAN, bothered by his small size. He has to do somethng to make himself feel tall and strong and manly.

I truly wonder what the oligarchs will do to grow their wealth once they choke out all of the consumers.

Johnson is an example in a suit, a little pimple of a wimpy. a fraud of a “title c version of “c-hristian” Doesn’t cut it to deserve a capital letter version of one, either.

I agree with you on the name calling, but you’re right — there’s just something about Johnson… Personally I think he’s more of a SIMPERING coward, and his butt will always be in the wringer regardless: MAGA isn’t sure he’s hardcore enough for them, and the few normal Republicans left aren’t sure just how far tfg has him wrapped around his stubby little finger. Basically, he vacillates with the wind. 💨

We will see Speaker Johnson in this familiar position more and more often: can't say, doesn't know, look that way, it will become clear, give it time. His skills in avoiding substance are critical to pleasing whoever is in front of him. His lack of experience made him the perfect choice for this role, in this administration. His inability to learn on the job is making his role more tenuous, as surely he perceives the danger and impossibility of taking a position about anything - this is why he serves as if he works in the mail room, carrying information to others.

It becomes very difficult for Johnson to learn on the job when he busy trying not to wet his pants. As Dirty Harry always said, “A man’s got to know his limitations”.

Republicans in the House, and in the Senate, are liars who care nothing about the common US citizen struggling to make ends meet- they are spineless jellyfish who have no business being in their current positions- they cowtow to the Orange convicted Felon who shouldn’t even be a dog catcher, let alone hold the highest office in the land. They are greedy and only want to hold on to their overpaid jobs that supposedly serve us, but in fact, they only care about keeping in office and serving themselves.

I cannot believe Johnson is a true Christian, when he is a sycophant for an immoral and deranged man who pretends to be President, but wants to be like his master, Putin-poot- the Russian weasel.

He gives all Christians a bad name, no wonder non- Christians call us hypocrites- I’m ashamed at having these spineless puppets represent our country- they lower what the world thinks of us.
