And J. D. Vance said that the first image we've been discussing with Trump AS Jesus was "just a joke" and the only reason Trump took it down was that he felt "that no one was getting his humor".
Soooo..... Who is lying? The President or the Vice- President? Because their two truths don't match.
At least Mike Johnson says that he was the one who asked the President to take it down. But who knows if that is even true?
I think I'll go make some popcorn and sit here and watch how Trump's defenders come back and say how that neither man was lying. And even if they were, well, so what.
This new post is just as disgusting to me as was the image the White House (the White House!!! ) posted before Pope Leo was made Pope of Trump as Pope. And not because I believe in a papacy.
I cannot bear this idea that some here and everywhere hold that President Trump is untouchable and should never be criticized or questioned.
Every leader, in all realms of life, needs close and consistent scrutiny.
To dismiss various actions because we cannot know exactly what the thought was behind them seems sycophantic, fawning, obsequious, servile, and deflective. Besides, the words posted along with an image give us a good idea about what a person thinks and intends.
I am not hating Trump or mocking him in any way. There is much that he is doing that we can cheer and be grateful for, Eliminating taxes on tips, mandating merit based hiring, fighting narcotics terrorism, and securing our borders are great examples.
However, I think when someone we admire and respect does something sacrilegious, Christians should be the first and loudest in protesting such behavior. When the behavior continues, despite public outcry, we have a serious problem.
Firing Paula White and his current evangelical advisors should be one of his new priorities. There are much more authentic Christian leaders that can take their place.
