Evangelicals – The Politicus

Unfortunately, We Need Real Republicans

The tens of tens who showed up in Washington, DC Saturday had a face, former Trump staffer Matt Braynard. Braynard, who presents himself as one of the many “voter fraud experts,” investigating the presidential election, was front and center Saturday afternoon in the Justice for J6 huddle.

Trump'd still be emperor with real infrastructure week(s), but his goal was to kill 250,000 people

Many times during his reign, Trump could have saved his presidency by taking moderate positions and co-opting the Democrats.

1/6 was an insurrection because Trump truly hoped Pence would overturn the election

Trump never truly understood why Paul Manafort chose Mike Pence as his Vice President.

Will We Ever Fly like An Eagle Again?

I suppose it is not enough for conservatives, big C, or little c, to deny science. They listen to a man [Trump]who suggests the nuking of hurricanes would stop their destructive winds, says exercise hurts the body like draining a battery, and he tweeted in 2012 that asbestos would have...

New documentary reveals Jane Roe's late-life conversion was 'an act' paid for by anti-choicers

You might think the most seismic fake conversion of all time was Donald Trump pretending to be a pro-life Christian conservative. (If you sprinkled holy water on him once a fortnight, the resulting chemical reaction could likely provide cheap, renewable energy for a mid-sized American city.) Well, according to a...

Pastor John Pavlovitz details the 5 reasons white evangelicals worship Trump

Pastor John Pavlovitz masterfully deconstructs the reasons evangelicals, and specifically white evangelicals bow down to Donald Trump. Once understood it makes attacking that metastasizing cancer easier and more strategic.

Kentucky Republicans Continue To Politicize A Viral Pandemic.

I shoudn’t let it surprise, shock, or bother me, but the fact that Kentucky Republicans are politicizing the coronavirus pandemic makes me very angry. We have already lost 23,000 people nationally, and we are most likely going to break a total of 100 deaths today in Kentucky. But never let...

Trump's the worst POTUS* since Buchanan, but better in the original gibberish

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/446461592029630464?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw With his catastrophic mishandling of the coronavirus, Trump has established himself as the worst president in U.S. history. Far worse is the human carnage. We already have more confirmed coronavirus cases than any other country. Trump claimed on Feb. 26 that the outbreak would soon be “down to close to zero.”...

Friend of pastor arrested for keeping megachurch open announces big Christian Woodstock

On the heels of his friend Rodney Howard-Browne’s arrest for defying orders against hosting large gatherings, evangelist Jonathan Shuttlesworth is defying orders against hosting large gatherings. Howard-Browne was arrested yesterday for refusing to close his Tampa, Florida, megachurch even as the deadly coronavirus continues to circulate throughout the country, presumably...

Krugman Fixes COVID-19 Blame on GOP Denialism; I'll Add Fundamentalist Christianity

As usual, Paul Krugman makes an excellent point. Today’s column, This Land of Denial and Death, lays it out in clear and damning words: Incredibly bad leadership at the top is clearly an important factor. Thousands of Americans are dying, and the president is boasting about his TV ratings. But...

Okay, this photo is creepy AF. x Look at the face. Look at the eyes. The face of a man in prayer; or being prayed to? ItÃ¢Â€Â™s about the attitude you bring to your prayer. ItÃ¢Â€Â™s about how much you humble yourself before God, even when others are praying for...

Maybe Evangelicals Support Trump BECAUSE He's the Antichrist

Others have speculated on this question, and I have previously posted a diary in which I argued that evangelicals support Trump because his support for Israel may trigger the apocalypse. But I want to propose a different angle of interpretation: Evangelicals think Trump really is the Antichrist — and that’s...

'Asking Trump to understand morality is like asking a person born blind to understand color'

With all due respect to Pete Wehner, an evangelical Christian, former George W. Bush White House aide, and the author of the above quote, this analogy undersells Donald Trump’s depravity by a damn stretch. A person born blind would surely be curious about what color is. Further, he or she wouldn’t scorn...

Trump, Anti-Semitism, and the Apocalypse

This is going to seem a little screwy, but given the age we’re living through, it may fit right in. I am concerned whether some of Trump’s actions are deliberately or unintentionally abetting the desire of his millennialist backers (John Hagee in particular) to see the apocalypse. This will happen,...
