Maybe they should start small, like regrowing severed limbs... It's disgusting that they take advantage of vulnerable parents in grief, what happened to their faith in heaven and all that stuff?These church people are seriously fucked up in the head.

Keep whittling down his base, more hearings, more public witnesses.

My guess is most so-called Christians who voted for Trump will fail this test of their faith.

So misleading, only someone in a Trump cult would fall for it.
Those Red districts are empty. It is possible for the politicians representing less than 7% of the American population to keep Trump in office until 2021.

One nutcase down in your neck of the woods. The GOP is fucked, Trump was both a cause and also a symptom, they were waiting for their demigod to arrive, who would have figure they would have such a low bar. In the future everybody knows the secret to getting a nomination in the republican party, there is no longer any need for a dog whistle, though the smarter ones will try to walk on both sides of the fence.

A Washington state House inquiry has found that state Rep. Matt Shea (R) planned and participated in domestic terrorism against the U.S. before and during the militant takeover of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, The Seattle Times reports.
According to the 108-page report, Shea assisted "in the planning and preparation” of the Malheur takeover. During the incident, dozens of armed protestors occupied national refuge in rural Eastern Oregon.
“Representative Shea, as a leader in the Patriot Movement, planned, engaged in and promoted a total of three armed conflicts of political violence against the United States Government in three states outside the state of Washington over a three-year period,” the report states.
After the release of the report, state Rep. J.T. Wilcox announced that the state lawmaker “has been suspended from any role in the House Republican Caucus.” Wilcox also called for Shea's resignation on Twitter.
The Patriot Movement is a rural-based conservative organization made up of militia members and so-called sovereign citizens. Deep suspicion and fear of the federal government are some of the big sticking points of the group.
In an interview with Infowars earlier in the month, Shea called the state's investigation a “Marxist smear campaign” and “political warfare according to a Maoist insurgency model.”

I wonder how many more are like this guy? Trump hasn't gained any new voters since 2016, he has made a lot more enemies though.

I Was a Lifelong Republican. The GOP Is Now the Evil Party.
‘VISCERALLY REPELLENT’
When I was coming of age, the Democrats were the moral relativists and the victims and the purveyors of sacrilege. Now, it’s the Republicans. It’s sickening to watch.

The impeachment of Donald Trump demonstrated what still feels to me like a weird new development: The Republicans are the evil party, while Democrats (presumably now the “stupid party”?) seemed much more sane, moderate, and honorable.
For most of my life, things appeared the exact opposite. For most of my life, it felt like the Democrats were the ones who were pandering, playing the politics of victimhood, insulting my intelligence, and saying borderline sacrilegious things. Today, the roles are reversed. Just as the parties seem to have switched positions on a myriad of issues like Russia, tariffs, and reverence for the Founding Fathers and American Exceptionalism, it is now the Republicans who are viscerally repellent.
If you watched the debates during impeachment day, you know these are not honest brokers. Their talking points—which I’m assuming are poll-tested—were maudlin, offensive, and manipulative.
The not-so-greatest-hits of Republican backbenchers included demanding a “moment of silence” for the 63 million Americans who voted for Trump, comparing impeachment to Pearl Harbor, and comparing Trump to Jesus.
In case you missed it, it was Ohio Rep. Bill Johnson who asked for that moment of silence, which Republicans stood and honored. And, in case you missed it, reminding us that the sneak attack also happened in December, Rep. Mike Kelly declared that December 18 would also be “a day that will live in infamy.”
But if you’re okay with having your patriotism questioned (for the sin of holding a president accountable to the rule of law), you might really enjoy Republicans weaponizing Jesus to score partisan political points.
As a flawed but practicing Christian, I found the references to the Lord and Savior to be gratuitous and inappropriate—especially during this Christmas season.
In case you missed it, Rep. Barry Loudermilk of Georgia declared that “Pontius Pilate afforded more rights to Jesus than the Democrats have afforded this president.” (Actually, Trump declined an invitation to testify or to send counsel.) “When Jesus was falsely accused of treason, Pontius Pilate gave Jesus the opportunity to face his accusers,” Loudermilk continued.
But he wasn’t alone. Rep. Fred Keller told Democrats he “would be praying for them” adding, “as Jesus said, Father, forgive them. For they know not what they do.”
Without getting into the weeds regarding either theology or impeachment, it’s worth noting that Trump (much to the chagrin of his supporters) is not Jesus. Likewise, being impeached isn’t quite as big a punishment as crucifixion.
Otherwise, the analogy was... still flawed.
It is, perhaps, telling that at least some Republicans do see him as a sort of savior who is selflessly sacrificing his body for their sake. Personally, this seems idolatrous and blasphemous and yet another example of debasement. Just me?

Yes. It is possible ... we'll show you.So misleading, only someone in a Trump cult would fall for it.
Those Red districts are empty. It is possible for the politicians representing less than 7% of the American population to keep Trump in office until 2021.
That is exactly what the Electoral College is supposed to do.
You see, in 1492 when Columbus and Washington got together and figured out how they were going to screw Native Americans and Democrats, they invented the EC. It guaranteed that Trump would be our first President for Life.
Either that, or the founding fathers wanted to make sure that the big cities weren't the only ones electing a president. Thank gawd.
But, good news!!
The founding fathers also left a way for you to change it.
Wanna get rid of EC? ... go for it.
But, me (and a few others) will resist that because:
- I live in a rural area, and I don't want the big cities being the only ones to elect a president, and
- I want to honor Columbus' and Washington's wishes that Trump be president for life.
