      I agreed with Trump twice recently.

      Once when he said he was being treated unfairly. I agree. It’s unfair that he gets to walk free when anyone else facing a fraction of his charges would be in jail awaiting trial.

      The second time was when he declared that the threat to America came from within. I agreed with this, but disagreed with the source. He meant the left, but the threat really comes from what he sees when he looks in a mirror (and his MAGA followers).

    They’ll still follow him into the maw of hell. They love the abuse.

      They won’t believe this anyway as it’s “a lie from a book, probably written by communist vermin.”

      Hell if it was a video of him saying it then it would be a “deepfake” or they would argue that hes talking about “liberal evangelicals.”

        They’ve already rationalized supporting Trump by declaring that God is using Trump as a flawed vessel to bring about everything they want.

        Once you get that far, it’s not hard to justify anything else. Perhaps God had him say this as a test to see if anyone wasn’t truly committed to God and would abandon Trump. Only the truly faithful would ignore everything Trump says and does and support him blindly!

    Evangelicals love a corrupt, abusive leader to lead them astray while fleecing their pockets.

    He publicly said he ‘likes soldiers who didn’t get captured.’

    There’s nothing he can do to turn his people off.

      Of course not, they’ve been trained to think that anything that contradicts their beliefs is “fake”.

    Once this bloated turd is dead there is going to be so much dirt spilled about what a vile piece of trash he truly was. I mean, we already know it, but the floodgates are going to be thrown wide open. Every former partner, underling and toadie is going to write a tell all book to cash in. Recordings, Russian dirt and taped conversations are going to suddenly drop like a tsunami.

      In 2023, any trump loving evangelicals are too stupid/stubborn/brainwashed and will continue support. You can’t make stupid people smart, you can’t make bad people good. You can only figure out how to not let them take you down with them.

      Why do you have to do this to me? Eight years I’ve had to hear about him constantly. If that keeps up after he’s dead I’m going to go live in the woods.

    That will be all the other Evangelicals in Iowa - Some of them really aren’t doing their bit to enable the rapture.

    But yeah. They don’t read either.
