Dear Rabid Trump Supporters (75% white Evangelicals):
Yes, the image of Donald Trump as the Baby Jesus is incredibly blasphemous, but, then again, so are you.
Making Trump The “Chosen One” is the next step to deifying a man who has lied consistently and made bullsh*t his raison de etre.
With Mueller’s team closing in and the media exposing his lies (“I’m a self-made billionaire”, “I have no ties to Russia”, “There was no collusion”). With Trump childishly shutting down government for a Border Wall the majority of Americans do not care about. With Trump’s playing the Christian Right for a fool (“Nobody reads the Bible more than I do”). With these and any crimes he has committed, the only line of defense for you, to twist yourselves into knots over, may be to make him the Second Son of God.
“The Chosen One” has worn thin, unless in choosing Trump, God’s as bad at vetting as the Republican Party.
Please, This year’s-long betrayal of Christianity, this insult to God’s integrity must stop.
And it will stop. As this Presidential Aberration continues to be revealed as a semi-literate grifter mouthing words you want to hear, you will be laughed at and scorned for not seeing the man as he really is/was for over 2 years. And, as Mark Twain said, “Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand.”
In his wake, You may not get the “Seven Mountains” chance to overtake the government (unless, of course, Mike Pence openly does your bidding which the House of Representatives may have something to say about).
You may not succeed in abolishing gay rights or abortion, even with “beer-bro” Kavanaugh on the Bench because fallout from Trump’s antics have given pause to the tattered GOP. It may listen to your ministers on a local level, but on a broader and more reasonable scale, the support for your agenda will be weakened.
You may see other countries respecting us again for ousting a man who was laughed at by the U.N., and managed to offend our allies (do we have any left?). You may even see the world breath a sigh of relief that some form of sanity and development dignity will be restored to the U.S.
You may even see people who are willing to strive for “Peace in Earth” without depending on the mercurial whims of a narcissistic fool.
Of course you will again be like a wounded tiger as you were during the Obama Administration, but how many wounds can a tiger take before it succumbs to death?
The only Christmas Miracle we can hope for at this point is that you come to your senses and realize that in supporting Trump, you sold your Christian soul in return for your agenda: a Christian Only nation, abortion-less , gay-less and blessed by God in its isolation, with only missionaries venturing out to save the rest of the Godless world.
This miracle is a fantasy, to be sure, more impossible than not. So we can only ask of you on Christmas Day, when you are sitting in your pews and praying for Donald Trump, to PLEASE pause and ask yourself if you’re praying for a man Christianity wants or if you’re praying for the man himself.
While commemorating the Birth of Christ should you be honoring such a man with your prayers?
Such a pause is not too much to ask, is it?
Look at it this way: excluding Trump from your prayers may be the first step in saving you Christian soul.
Just a thought.
Merry Christmas.
PS: I do not normally take so strident and politically motivated a stance on Christmas, but rest assured that I do hope for “Peace On Earth Good Will Towards Men” for everyone.
