That is relatively mild compared with the highway billboards around here. The ones I saw were professionally done and quoted scripture. I won’t repeat what they said-it wouldn’t be appropriate in this forum. They were on the main interstate going in to the state capital.

I still wonder if this is what actually inoculated people to Trump. Because I saw several actually applicable scriptures about Trump, yet no one seemed to care. I didn’t see any for Clinton.

How can Trump be both manipulative AND a puppet?

Is he the boss or a pawn? Make up your mind.
