Let this be a reminder to anyone who hasn't liked Biden's handling of the Gaza situation that this is the alternative.
Bro, just because Trump is worse than Biden doesn't make Biden immune to criticism
Sure, criticize away, and you absolutely should. It's just important to not get so carried away that you wind up contributing to an outcome that you openly know to be objectively worse at the ballot box.
You guys have "a Religion"?
American Christianity. It's like Christianity but cutting out all the stuff that Christ guy talked about.
Christ: When someone slaps you turn the other cheek.
Conservative Christians: Instructions unclear, passes stand your ground law and turns their cheek onto iron sights and starts blastin.
Basically they just expect anyone they abuse to turn the other cheek instead of following the example themselves...
Supply Side Jesus
Yes. Money.
Trump is the religion. Next move is to deport anybody that doesn’t follow it.
How fucking Christian of him.
I almost wish religion was real, just so Jesus could come back and start smiting Trump and the rest of these fake Christians.
While I agree with the sentiment, we should take a step back.
"Our" religion!? And what would that be? Pretty sure the founding fathers made it damn clear that there was no official religion and we were to separate church and state.
I'm so sick of these Christian fascists that see the handmaid's tale as something to aspire to and the grifting assholes that will drive that into existence for their own personal gain...
I say if we deport anyone it's the people who start forcing their religion on the rest of us.
The religion he's talking about isn't Christianity. Trump wouldn't recognize Jesus Christ if he smacked him in the face. He's talking about Trumpism.
"Our" religion.
Dude doesn't even know how to orient a Bible for a photo op, and couldn't name his favorite part - or any part - of the Bible in an interview.
The closest he gets to studying Christianity is sitting next to a book of Hitler's speeches for inspiration via osmosis from a Catholic.
That he can be so successful with the religious right says quite a lot about their critical reasoning abilities.
I guess maybe raising children not to question anything and to commit themselves to obeying authority might not have been the best idea in retrospect...
Hasn't anyone noticed that he is the actual embodiment of the 7 deadly sins?
I've pointed that out many times.
Anger, Envy, Vanity, Lust, Avarice, Gluttony, Sloth- he embodies them all.
Trump is literally an atheist who has been caught mocking the faith of his own followers in private
Can’t wait to see North Americans come back to Europe to runaway from religious persecution.
Welcome to the Old World my friends !
Sorry, we all were educated by the American school system and thus have no useful skills or knowledge Europeans need.
What you imply is a common misconception. Puritans did not flee to America in the early modern period because they were religiously persecuted. They fled to America because they were not allowed to religiously persecute others anymore. They were scolded because of their religious intolerance not because of their religion per se.
Depends on if you mean Puritans in Massachusetts, or Quakers in Pennsylvania.
Can I ban republicans because they don't like my religion?
"Our?" His religion is money, so uh, ban immigrants who don't like money?
Edit: I'm 30 minutes late, flyingsquid got to religion=money first

Emma Lazarus speaking on the Statue of Liberty
I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.
Jesus speaking in Matthew 25:35
Truly I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of my brethren you did it to me.
Jesus speaking in Matthew 25:40
vowing to “immediately restore and expand the Trump travel ban” and “halt all of the refugee settlements to the United States” on “day one” of his presidency.
Trump speaking in New Hampshire
Let's go with Trump.
American evangelicals speaking in 2023
These comments just seem like he's drowning and he's desperated to drum up any kind of reaction to take away from the fact that he's probably gonna lose most of his trials
That would be anyone who isn't indigenous and shamanistic
Capitalism? Exactly what religion is this dipshit talking about?
He knows he's not shitting in the White House ever again.
He can vow all he likes, but 1. he's a lying sack of shit and 2. he's never getting anywhere near the White House again, so who cares what he says?
he's never getting anywhere near the White House again, so who cares what he says?
Man, I wish I shared your optimism. The next election is going to come down to a few thousand votes in a handful of states, thanks to our backward electoral system.
Gee! I wonder who a promise like that would appeal to? It seems we have reached his appeal to the idiots phase of his campaign.
Maybe this will be the new “Mexico will pay for the wall.”
"The Constitution?" trump replied. "Never seen her before. Not my type. Bigly ugly."
Oh look at that he said the quiet part out loud again.
Fun fact, because he campaigned on a "Muslim travel ban", courts slapped down the ban when his administration tried to argue it wasn't religious based. It eventually went to the supreme court and I think was partially enacted by dropping some countries.
Soooo if you ever wanted proof that he doesn't learn from his mistakes...
