I voted for Trump in 2016 . . . because I was lied to and I fell for it

    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

      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.

        Calling someone messiah is not a blasphemy tho. However, equaling yourself to God or his Son is a blasphemy. But now that you pointed it out, he was destined to fall for it at some point with his overinflated ego xD

      Frankly, this is making me furious. Even a friend of mine who has hated Trump all along is telling me that this “crosses a new line” for him. I’m having a hard time not snapping at him about this. I will bury the reaction and continue smiling for now because opposing Trump is more important for now.

    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…

      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 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

    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

    I can’t wait for the Trump religion. In this timeline it is totally happening.
