@Monty, I sincerely believe that modern American Christianity’s focus on faith over ethics (and the application thereof) is a huge part of the problem with MAGA… and many non-MAGA as well, since we’re at it.
And that’s what that woman found out. She believed, because she has been told that belief is all that matters.
“Besides, I kind of want to do it myself.”
I would guess a pro-life Catholic.
Nitpick, but those that oppose abortion are not necessarily pro life.
I know but that’s the term they like to use and I was trying to be polite. For some, “Pro-fetus” is indeed, more accurate or maybe, “Anti-woman.”
“Forced Birthers”
Now? He’s 55, he would’ve graduated high school around 1989.
True. More’s the pity.
From one of Monty’s links:
More like Trump MAGA Unity Bridge Shop, that should’ve been called. Like, who-on-earth-the-fuck-else would ‘unify’ with that POS?
One of the more disipiriting (sure, not surprising) things I’ll probably read all day today.
Reminds me of a movie – title forgotten – set in Saigon while the Viet Nam war was was rolling. An idiot was wearing a CIA field jacket because he thought it looked cool. It said, “Shoot me,” to the VC agent who killed him.
At least they have the decency to identify themselves.
Oh, range time is this Thursday for my wife and I. Twice a month to keep up our skills.
“Oh wait. I could use some help. Can you send a crew to demolish that damn ballroom, that stupid arch, and the concrete mess called the Rose Garden? Yeah, I want to make it a true garden again.”
And there will be quite a delivery charge for that mess. I’ll need a company to be able to take it to Florida. Yes Florida, the State.
Of course I have an address.
On the other hand, on the heartening side, today I saw generic America-themed shirts in the bargain bin at Academy Sports. It’s not quite as red-coded as actual MAGA stuff, but blue patriots don’t feel as much need to wear gear to reassure themselves that they care about America.
In my neck of the woods, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen anyone actually wearing ICE apparel. I have seen it occasionally last year or so, though, which I agree is dispiriting but not surprising.
Venues across Ohio have been canceling Vivek Ramaswamy’s campaign stops over his pro-child-rape ad.
That ad just handed the win to Acton. Resounding outrage. The upcoming denial by Orange Foolius that he ever even heard of it (let alone vigorously endorsing it) will be hilarious.
Trump responds to controversial Ramaswamy campaign ad featuring Amy Acton’s mother - YouTube
“I [haven’t seen it and] don’t know ANYTHING about it, but I also understand the mother went rogue on the daughter and saw some things herself and had some things of her own to say…”
The second half of the statement seems to directly contradict not knowing anything about it.
Trump contradicting himself in one sentence? You don’t say… 
It’s classic Trump, of course. If he just stuck with the first half of that sentence, he’d contradict his statement in support of the ad from last week, but at least it’d be a clear case of throwing Ramaswamy under the bus.
But, he can’t help himself from providing his “expert opinion” on anything and everything, and he has no ability to stick to the script and then shut up.
Un-Fucking-Believable.
