Biden Out, Trump Raging: The Shitshow Continues

 

 

 "I’m not going to speculate on the shooting in Pennsylvania. As far as I’m concerned it doesn’t matter what the alleged shooter’s motives were, nor does it matter whether or not Trump was seriously wounded. The Trumpists got what they wanted—another excuse to raise their con man hero on the pedestal they’ve erected for him. It’s a pedestal built from lies, millions and millions of ill-begotten dollars, right wing preachers and bishops calling themselves Christians and speaking in the tongues of Satan, and a fossil fuel industry intent on destroying the earth before their grandbabies are old enough to buy a legal drink. The only thing more grandiose than that pedestal is Donald Trump’s impression of himself. Like the worshippers of the golden calf erected under Aaron’s command in the Bible’s Book of Exodus, these Christians and their camp followers revel in their corruption. If you know the story, the Israelites’ god wanted to kill them all after the episode with the calf, but Moses talked god out of it. Then he brought the ten commandments to his people. If you believe in the story, you could argue it’s been downhill from there."
