Rounding up random brown people, including American citizens and sending them overseas to prison camps?

That's fine.

Raping children for decades?

Perfectly cool.

Cringey blasphemy?

HE CROSSED THE LINE

The mental illness will continue until the empire collapses.

True product of America imo

[-] ImgurRefugee114@reddthat.com 34 points 4 days ago

It's not even the first blasphemy... There's been so much talk and memes from evangelicals basically making him out to be a messiah and he's totally embraced it over and over again.

'Murican "christian values" on display for the world to see, lol

it wasn't the pedophilia, the raping, the fraud, the tens of thousands of lies, the pornstar hush money, "grab'em by the pussy," "suckers and losers," the support for genocide and pointless bullshit iran war--no, it was the ai jesus pic that pushed them over the edge...

[-] BeardededSquidward 113 points 4 days ago

Nothing gets fake Christians upset than someone out fake Christianing them.

[-] gh0stb4tz@lemmy.world 34 points 4 days ago

Gloriously accurate statement.

[-] Vinylraupe@lemmy.zip 23 points 4 days ago

Life is full of miracles.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 18 points 4 days ago

Which isn't even really new information. He's compared himself to Jesus multiple times and blasphemed publicly a few times that I'm aware of.

This isn't the first one made of him. So it took a few to push people over.

A reminder that it isn't Trump, but the ones who support him that are the problem, and there are so many of them. And even they are also just a symptom of a deeper illness. A self-perpetuating one.

They want something to be nominally angry about because we all made fun of them for only caring about gas prices. This is cover. I won't assume intentionality where irrationality has always reigned, but the holier-than-thou crowd prefers a spiritual boogeyman to admitting they are just selfish little children.

I'd rather they burned themselves

They'll keep voting republican

It's a part of their identity

It's how they compensate for not having real personalities

[-] BigTurkeyLove@lemmy.dbzer0.com 91 points 4 days ago

Wait, is he raising Jeffrey Epstein from the dead?

Flood the airwaves with it as if it were the original. No one will check anyway.

I literally don't believe this happened.

That'll be the day.

Is this satire?

Also, I thought MAGA's official stance on the Pope was that Catholicism was "woke" now lol

[-] BigMacHole@thelemmy.club 47 points 4 days ago

THIS time Trump posting Himself as Jesus is TOO FAR! He BETTER go Back to his NORMAL posting of Himself as Jesus otherwise I'll HOLD MY NOSE when I vote for him AGAIN!

-Free Thinking Constitution Lovers!

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 40 points 4 days ago

Do we know if the anti-Christ is aware they are the anti-Christ? Because it seems like trump just accidentally stumbled into embodying that concept so perfectly just by being his normal piece of shit self.

[-] Kwiila@slrpnk.net 12 points 4 days ago

No, the idea of the antichrist knowing is a supposition of them being a servant of the beast. A cultural assumption of Satan's "human servants" having first hand communication like one does with a human boss.

https://www.benjaminlcorey.com/could-american-evangelicals-spot-the-antichrist-heres-the-biblical-predictions/

Inasmuch as I could play with the idea of believing in revelations, I would believe that it's less about a "chosen one" antichrist, and moreso an "antichrist candidate" that when someone can fulfill the roll and obtain power; then it's a sign of times incoming. Also, (lego) Brick Bible Revelations is a fascinating interpretation.

They're just looking for an off-ramp as everything implodes as a result of their actions

And probably buying new hats.

[-] West_of_West@piefed.social 32 points 4 days ago

It'd be reeeeaally funny if Trump got smote for blasphemy.

If he falls over of a heartattack in the next day my needle may shift from atheist to agnostic.

Someday everyone will claim to have always opposed him.

[-] GuyFawkesV@lemmy.world 27 points 4 days ago

Oh so THAT was the line too far? Jesus. Fucking. Christ.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 13 points 4 days ago

It's not even a line too far.

They absolutely 100% would vote for him again.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 10 points 4 days ago

These are the believers who stayed with the church after its own child rape scandal.

What a bunch of pathetic rubes. These people view politics as a team sport, and have collectively sensed that the tide is turning on the Trump regime (in no small part due to the same realization made by those like Tucker Carlson and Theo Vaughn, others within their purview). This is just an excuse for them to act out that realization. There is no moral conviction in these people whatsoever.

We need to convince them that winning looks like the green new deal and mass unionization across all labor sectors.

Another clip making the rounds on X featured a MAGA hat ablaze on a barbecue grill.

They're eating the hats ...

And the self serving cunt will skate away yet again because so many people are scared, of changes, of people who don't look like them, of being told that they had it wrong, that they'll lose their little piece of the whatever they have...

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 days ago

I'm sorry but I'm just not going to upvote or support this shitty website.

[-] null@lemmy.org 20 points 4 days ago

Don't believe these kinds of articles. Anyone who voted for Trump the second time already knew what they were getting.

Trump's base is unquestionably faithful and you still need to be vigilant against them because they aren't going anywhere until Trump dies.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
