https://newsone.com/3890812/christian-radio-host-elijah-cummings/Maryland Congressman Rep. Elijah Cummings died early Thursday morning. He had been an elected official since 1983, always serving his community and yet Trump worshippers are still disrespecting. A conservative radio host said God killed him because he didnt support Trump.
According to Right Wing Watch, Christian fundamentalist Stacey Shiflett claimed Trump was sent by God and Cummings headed a cooked, deceptive, demonic attempt to remove Trump from office. She also said about Cummings, Everything that hes done has been nothing but trying to take this president out. I believe that God had had enough, and God moved.
Another so-called Christian, Dave Daubenmire, said Cummings was the enemy of the cross and Maybe he didnt know Jesus I havent been sitting around praying that Elijah Cummings would die. But now that he did, Im glad hes gone . . . I bet hes not pro-choice now. I bet hes not pro-homo now.
Jesse Lee Peterson, who is a Black, said about Cummings, He dead. Thats what happens when you mess with The Great White Hope. Dont mess with Gods children. He also said, If you notice, John McCain, he dead. Charles Krauthammer, he dead. And Elijah Cumming, now he dead. They all didnt like The Great White Hope, they went against him, they talked about him, now they all dead. Thats amazin.

Black themselves and referring to Trump as "Great White Hope?" Can they get any more obscenely insulting?

(43,389 posts)Conservative radio host Jesse Lee Peterson, a self-hating black man who routinely trashes liberals and calls Donald Trump the Great White Hope, shamed a female FOX News host for working and her husband for resigning from Congress to spend more time with his family.
His rant was focused on the announcement by GOP Rep. Sean Duffy that hed be stepping down from his Wisconsin seat because he was about to have his ninth child with FOX News commentator Rachel Campos-Duffy. They know the baby will need open-heart surgery after its born, so its hard to fault Duffy for his decision so naturally, Peterson is faulting him for his decision.
Hes going after the wife, too, because he cant believe she still wants to have a career.
This woman is a selfish, egotistical woman and this man is too beta male to make her do the right thing, Peterson continued. This woman is a selfish woman. She has nine kids and shes trying to be like a man, I want to be seen by the world as such a working woman. Women, God has given you the gift of being the assistant of the man, to watch over his children, to make sure things are well at home, to be there when the kids come home, to cook, clean, provide in that way. There is no greater job for a woman than that. And I dont know why these men would marry these women if they dont have that mindset. Its like being married to another man. Its selfishness, its not love.

(46,715 posts)Cummings told people he was on borrowed time in 2017. So he lived two years, long enough to make sure that Trump's impeachment hearing was well on its way.
Thank you, God!

(146,317 posts)Show me evidence of that and we can discuss it.
I find no rules that say smiting someone violates any rule for deities. Certainly the supposed Old Testament one smote plenty of people if the stories are to be believed.

(959 posts)Anytime someone who they consider a never-trumper dies, or their career is hurt, they call it the trump curse. It's fucking sick.
I used to visit a website that became increasingly political during Obama, and when trump got nominated pretty much all the left-leaning users self-purged because it became so toxic. I pop on every now and then to see what bullshit they are spouting and its so vile.
