@Monty

Except golf. A lot of golf. Lots and lots of golf. A lot of golf cheating. Lots and lots of golf cheating.

“Donald J. Trump: He doesn’t just cheat on his wives!”

He even cheats on his balls.

I’ve always interpreted it as “fear of any overriding power” - for example if my boss were to drag me into her office and put the fear of God into me about posting to the Dope from work (er…) then what would have actually happened would be that she’d have filled me with fear of her. I actually can’t think of a time where the intended meaning seemed to be that wrath people were being made afraid of was an actual god. It’s my vague recollection that the infraction inspiring the wrath-putting is only rarely one that God would have a stake in anyway.

But then I’m an atheist, so I may be biased away from the notion that the literal God was the subject of the fear. Fictional things aren’t scary, after all…

Yeah, the notion is a liiiiiiiii’l bit older than widespread atheism.

Funnily enough, you live in the place that is currently famous for Fire and Brimstone preachers, and for their export thereof. That’s what they preach: that God is an old asshole holding a lightning bolt (that Theos dude has a curious family resemblance to ol’ Zeus), sitting on a cloud in the sky eagerly awaiting for His creatures to screw up so He can do some (minor) smiting (He’s also planning a big smiting but this one requires more paperwork).

To be fair, he sort of has to cheat at golf, considering the tiny little putter he has.

Today:

@Donald J. Trump

Democrats in Congress must vote to close the terrible loopholes at the Southern Border. If not, harsh measures will have to be taken!

Don Quixote has nothin’ on this guy!

Lawfare now has a place to track lawsuits against the wall.

There are links to court documents for:

House v. Mnuchin (District of Columbia)

Sierra Club v. Trump (Northern District of California)

California v. Trump (Northern District of California)

County of El Paso v. Trump (Western District of Texas)

Citizens for Ethics in Washington v. United States Department of Justice (District of Columbia)

I’d also like to point out that Trump’s imminent tariffs on Mexican goods is just another incident in Trump’s fight with our border.
