The One Word
The Washington Post this morning knows the one word that Trump hates, hates, hates.
Trump recently called himself “the least racist person anywhere in the world,” but his history is littered with racist and racially charged comments and actions.
He hates being called a racist simply because there is so much evidence that he is.
Watching him wiggle out of it is a hoot.
“Democrats seem to forget that Trump supporters include blacks, whites, Hispanics and other minority groups who simply love this country,” Mercedes Schlapp, a Trump campaign adviser, said in a text message. “Democrats have shown their absolute disdain for the president and now they have extended their disdain to half of America.”
Well, Honey, if you want to get technical about it, it’s less than half. And, outside of Ben Carson, Diamond and Silk, and that one guy at all Trump’s rallies, exactly 2% of African American support him.
And even Evangelical are a tad pissed off. Not because he’s racist, or mean, or dividing America, or worshiping money, or putting children in cages, or robbing social security, or any of those things, but …
They are mad because he used the Lord’s name in vain, which means he broke the last of the ten commandments.
The “Trump blasphemed” bit sounds a bit forced – the next step is accusing Democrats of worshipping Ba’al…
1Hey, a God-fearin’ Christian’s gotta draw the line somewhere.
2I mean hey, you can do almost any old douchebag thing to someone who’s vulnerable. Long as you do it in God’s name. But one Goddamn, or Jesus H . Christ, and you’re gonna go straight to hell.
Wait….I just did it twice.
Maybe they’ll cancel each other out.
Bear false witness on a regular basis, no problem, but the Lord’s name in vain is what riles them? Must be the the BOGO Evangelicals, where you pay for breaking one Commandment, but another is free.
3Well that pretty much does it for me!!!!
4You don’t suppose they just found out that he’s rude, crude, lewd, screwed, tattooed…and so on, ad-pretty much effing- infinitum!!!!!
5He’s down to the last commandment? Hmm, wonder what took him so long. Demented Donnie is slipping.
6As Molly Ivans once said, “The trouble with Baptists, they didn’t hold them under long enough”
7Not taking the Lord’s name in vain, is either commandment two or three, depending on the tradition. Commandment 10 is “thou shalt not cover . . .”
8Thou shalt not covet!
Darn spell check.
9the trumpkin NEVER used the lord’s name in vain!
10Why? Cuz NO ONE knows the lord gawd’s name!!! It aint gawd as that is a job description. It aint christ…another job description, it aint jesus as that is a greek translation of his name. YeowWay aint its name either as that is just an invented word from 4 letters, just jehovah is an invented word for the same 4 letters. So you can’t use gawd’s name in vain!
Racists? If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck……..
11Conversely, he loves being called a billionaire because there’s so much evidence he isn’t.
12Vulgar language isn’t using the lord’s name in vain but claiming to be Christian when you clearly aren’t sure is and there’s a buttload of ’em guilty of that.
