I notice we haven't heard a word about "family values" or "Christian values" in more than three years now. And whatever happened to the "moral majority". They seem to be keeping a low profile these days. I wonder why that is.

I know your god Trump told you 2020 election is going to be rigged and I understand you are concerned. Your dear god also claimed election was rigged back in 2016 and kept claiming almost until election day and then suddenly it all became legitimate

They disappear like clockwork as soon as a Republican is in office. Kind of like the Tea Party, who was oh, so very OUTRAGED by "out of control spending" in the Obama Administration, but who jumped right on the Trump GOP bandwagon and applauded deficit smashing massive tax cuts without demanding they be offset.

Anyone remember how anything the Democrats wanted to do during the Obama Administration had to be offset in the budget first? What happened to that?

I have no doubt that the pretend Christian/Tea Party/fiscally responsible/family values/rightwing hypocrites will be back in force as soon as Trump is gone. Take it to the bank.

Trump has proven to be worse than my wildest fears. I was right on all counts, and he has proven to be a disastrously incompetent president who has irreparably harmed this country in many ways.
I’m neither a D nor an R, I hated Hillary both before Nov 2016 and now after, and I pretty much agree with the above ^^^^^.

The Teabaggers. Weren't they the outfit that wanted to shut down the government, which would have forced a default on America's debt payments for the first time in history, which would have damaged our credit rating, which would have increased our borrowing costs, which would have added billions in additional debt? And all the while claiming to be "fiscal conservatives" and "deficit hawks"?

No doubt about it. As long as they perceive themselves to be in power, they are willing to put their core beliefs on the shelf. But once they are out of power, they will suddenly take them off of the shelf and they will be important again.

The old phrase "Sell your soul to the Devil" is trite, but certainly applies.

I was looking for a clip from the CNN interview with the affluent DFW area housewives who think Trump was sent from god.

I couldn’t find any clips from that broadcast, but what I found below is far more frightening:

Trump is such a fine exemplar of "Christian values".
