"Jesus is my Lord, Trump is my President"

I saw this bumpersticker on the back of a car in the Lidl parking lot. And it really depressed me. It crystallized my fear that Joe and Kamala's Presidency may be compromised by the 77 million pro-Trump conspiracy theorists we are facing off in this divided country.

(one and the same to them) serve Satan. I heard that directly from a couple of relatives a year or so ago. Ds/liberals “are doing Satan’s work”. Oh, and that tRump is “the greatest President in American history”. Words exactly.

Let alone crucified.
So one has a problem right there.

What does trump do that Jesus would do?
That’s not a rhetorical question either.

But I'm completly prepared to IGNORE his presidency in exhile routine while in Palm Beach, which MAGAts will perpetuate:

Rallies
Pressers (weekly?)
Stupid signs behind him ALL THE DAMN TIME "PRESIDENT DONLAD J. TRUMP"
Republicans, maybe even a foriegn dignitary or two, calling on him at Mar-a-Lago
And the nauseating long awaited media channel (which of course will flame out. when has anything he created ever worked?)

We can't have two presidents at a time, so maybe there's some line he'll cross that will put him in legal jeopardy. Somebody, somewhere will have the backbone to stop it.

...but it will be greatly diminished. EVERYONE talks about how he will control the GOP*... yeah, but for how long? tRump* will be the hateful, cruel despot that an entire younger generation will hate.

I think everyone should start to realize that most people like to live in a dream world while they visit this planet for their few decades. There's really no contradiction in one person's dream world misunderstanding both Jesus and Trump. That's the dream they want to live in, not unlike living vicariously through a TV show.

The problem is that infrastructure is failing us while we screw up each others' dream worlds. We're brawling in a burning house.

I live in a Dallas suburb. My neighborhood was about 50/50 on the yard signs during the election with a couple of Lincoln Project signs and one "Republicans for Biden."

I call it The Tartuffe Effect.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tartuffe


They are trying to sell people on their morality because their actions cannot convey that on their own.
