Nationalism is a euphemism for supremacism. Christ’s teachings are absent from the theology of fundamentalist hate speech and oppression. Here, ‘Christian’ serves as a ‘no cream in the coffee’ qualifier for bad people pretending to be good.

Agreed. Dire would be a more appropriate adjective. Sorry. To be honest, I am exhausted over the daily hate.

This is the inevitable landing spot for MAGA. It’s just taken a while for most of them to become conscious of their own fascist beliefs.

I don't find this surprising at all. It sounds very conservative to me. Remember when Mitch McConnell slapped democracy in the face by stealing a SC seat from Pres Obama? Which Republicans were outraged at this attack on democracy?

Been that way since Falwell sold his soul to Satan. I remember the media after every cut Reagan made to facilitate the murder of poor children, they would crow "Don't Worry the Church will spend more". With that election USA put the Christians in charge and fucked the world with their evil ways

The President thinks he should pick and choose which parts of the Constitution to follow. And the Supreme Court's not far behind.

Here too. It’s the last time I speak or even acknowledge the person. I’ve let go of 40-45 year friendships, lifetime family relationships, and too many close working relationships to count. Sad indeed, but I choose my own path to happiness and they’re no longer on it and it’s still just as scenic.

Well, I’m an outsider since I live in The Netherlands. So as an observer I can tell you: 1) $1.2 trillion infrastructure law 2) Strong post-COVID economic recovery: Unemployment dropped significantly, partly due to the American Rescue Plan 3) Expanded overtime protections 4) American Rescue Plan

17) Federal Reserve response: Rapid interest rate hikes to control inflation, followed by expected rate cuts in late 2024 In my opinion, he did quite a lot for the American people in four years. What did Trump do for you?

You do realize that most of the bills they passed never did anything. Like the one that was supposed to get high speed internet to everyone. Not. The one that was supposed to put in a bunch of EV chargers. Not. They didn't create jobs. That was the people going back to their jobs after covid.
