I’ll be shocked if she pays one red cent. ---

Maybe she can reach out to trump for some financial help. Haha, I crack myself up. ---

You really think she has $360,000 lying around? She was a county clerk, for godsakes. ---

She won’t pay it. MAGAs will pay it via Go Fund Me. ---

Doesn’t Go Fund Me have rules against raising money to pay court fines? Or am I thinking of another outfit? ---

Dunno. If not them, I’m sure there’s some other platform. ---

GiveSendGo is what she’s gonna be using, probably. The so-called “Christian crowdfunding site”. It’s what good Christian, Kyle Rittenhouse, used. ---

It is really fascinating to me how these “good Christian” web sites are so incompetent at choosing “good Christians”. ---

I agree (or whatever platform she uses to raise money). I think there is a fair chance she could make money off of this. ---

And you got it. Someone named Raymond Henrie set it up at [KIM DAVIS Religious freedom defense fund](https://www.givesendgo.com/GBJFJ) on that site. The good news is out of the target $260,000, only $190 has been raised. More amusing is there’s even an option to click on PRAY and you can enter the text of your prayer. Here’s what that site has to say about that option: > Pray > > Send an encouraging message or prayer to the campaign owner. > Let them know you are praying for them. > > “The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” **James 5:16** > > Prayers written using cursing or hate will be deleted automatically. That last bit shows me they’re unfamiliar with irony. ---

I wonder if Henrie is obligated to ever send a dime to Davis? What happens to any money collected over the requested $260,000? (I do not expect you or anyone to know…just wondering out loud.) ---

Did you catch the bit about the prayers submitted on that site are not for the _beneficiary_ of the campaign, but rather the _owner_ of the campaign? Seriously, is there anything, anything whatsoever, these clowns cannot muck up? ---

I chose to give her some prayers, citing John 11:35, which I feel is suitable for her cause. ---

Cursing might not be allowed, but I’m a big fan of prayers with the word “smite” in them. ---
