He’s Gonna Blame God Next

August 18, 2020 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, so Trump held a mini-rally (That’s the new Trumpspeak for “nobody showed up”) in Minnesota and here’s the words that come tumbling out of his mouth …

“We built the greatest economy in the history of the world, and now I have to do it again… You know what that is? That’s right. That’s God testing me.”

So God sent a plague just to test Trump’s ability to glide on Obama’s economy.  You can hear him for yourself right here – it’s the second one.

 

(New fangled posting stuff.  I couldn’t take one without the other.)

One other thing.  We have got to get rid of the phrase “avoid it like the plague,” because apparently we can’t do that.

 

Be social and share!

    “King Lear” was a mere piker compared to this WATB.

  2. “That’s God testing me.”

    Trump takes it in stride. He knows he can pay people to take the test for him.

  3. Why am I suddenly thinking of ancient Egyptians?

    Bad Lip Reading is back with their version of the Axios interview with his majesty. Maybe they can “cover” a few of these nothingburgers and make them more interesting.

    Five million sick Americans, some of who may have permanent impairment, and 170,000 dead. Millions unemployed, perhaps for a long time, many facing homelessness and hunger. Students with their education disrupted. People dying in nursing homes without ever seeing their families.

    No, I’m sorry, it’s all about one game-show bankrupt being tested by a god he only heard about four years ago.

  6. Totally OT, I follow Aaron Rupar’s tweets on my ancient computer. He has a new baby daughter. It brings smiles to my day to see baby Mia’s latest. If you need a respite from the current daily madness click on over.

  7. Like minds, maggie @3:
    I got to thinking about how people around the time of the Exodus — and right up till Revelation [and beyond] were SO sure that God was either looking out for them or punishing them.

    And then, one of my favorite lines from the movie _Gandhi_ sprang to mind:
    A Christian clergyman and Gandhi were walking down the street together and narrowly avoided getting beaten up by a gang of thugs.
    The clergyman said, “That was lucky!” and mopped his brow.
    Gandhi replied, “I thought you were a man of God.”
    To which the clergyman responded, “I am but I’m not so much of an egotist as to think he plans his day around the pickles I get myself into.”

    Because, yeah — we’re SUPPOSED have matured over the past several thousand years.

    It’s fitting he chose Mankato – 38 Dakota men were hanged on December 26, 1862 in Mankato in the largest one-day mass execution in American history.

  9. And now he’s talking to God, and God’s talking back.
    So the question remains. What does God’s voice sound like?
    Sam @8:
    The only thing that coulda said law and order better woulda been if the anniversary of the mass execution of 38 Native Americans had been YESTERDAY.
    There’s several Salem witch trials execution anniversaries between now and election day.
    For the misogynist demographic.

    Far right religious Trumpf supporters have shown their true selves- they’re morally bankrupt too.
    We’re closing in on being a 3rd world country. I can’t imagine what 4 more years of Trumpf would mean to my kids and grandkids.
