the crowd sounds riveted. Like when the backup preacher comes in for a month during the summer. 

So….my wife is working on her sermon series right now for the month she’s covering while our head pastor is on sabbatical….fortunately, folks like her preaching. It probably has something to do with her not rambling and praising Putin and being a racist POS in her sermons.

With that attitude she might keep the current flock, but she’s never going to get you that private jet

That clip works on so many levels.

Everybody behind him seems like they’d rather be anywhere else.

It highlights that a well-known Republican woman in the state will not endorse him.

And, of course, the grievance/whining politics.

I know I’ve underestimated his appeal before (and overestimated the public) but damn this is a train wreck campaign.

I guess it's that time of year across parishes?  Our Associate Pastor is still moving to Austin.  And our Senior Pastor is on vacation.  So we're having a couple of "guests" fill in since mid-July.  One of the guys who we know personally through a relative basically gives a second homily at the end of service.  We're lucky if we're done in under 1:20.  He tip-toes a little too close to politics for my liking, but usually reigns it back when he remembers he's in arguably one of the most 5 most educated parishes in the State (of my wife's particular faith).  Other than the petition for the unborn after homily, that's the only time anything like that ever comes up.  I help cook and clean the kitchen for our children and seniors and us folks in the back, we'll once in a great while chat about politics/current events just to pass the time while working (sports and movies too).  That's about it.  

All that to say, for decades-I've read and heard about the impact of faith on politics and vice-versa.  The de-evolution of Evangelism, the moderation of Catholicism, the silent majority of Protestantism, the politicization of the pulpit, and how that's bled over into our political ecosystem.  Mostly for the worse.  

But once again, we find ourselves in the part of the simulation where this is actually happening.  This time, it all matters.  The idolatry of Trump as God's Messenger v. People of True Faith from Black Churches to Vanilla Lutheranism.  All hands on deck, we can all go back to pretending we never discussed it over coffee and fellowship. 

But for now until November, anybody at church mentions Trump and avoiding the evil Democrats-------ask them this question, "You agree that he's flawed, but that God sent him just the same to save our country from peril, right?  He's sinned greatly as did most of God's messengers and church founders"  They nod in agreement.  "But from Moses to Paul, from David to Simon, from John to Matthew.  All sinners, but all had one thing in common that Trump didn't do.  They repented.  They prayed for forgiveness and gave of themselves to something far larger than themselves---a place of inclusive love that would never know in their lifetimes." 

If it is God's will this sinful, self-absorbed man was sent here as a Test to see if we would follow him on a path to save our country and our souls.  Would you at least consider the possibility there is just the slightest chance that is a Test from God.  But it's to see if we'd follow the path laid before us by his son's sacrifice and avoid being led astray?  If we're under examination, why veer from the lesson plan in favor a cheat code?  We are being tested, and 40% of us are failing.  Not saying the rest of us are exactly shining in his eyes right now, but at least he knows we respect the syllabus.

It's like a bizarro-world Seinfeld episode with Kramer at the Tony Awards. 

"I know this is such a first date kinda question, butwhat you do for a living?"

-Oh, I'm a seat filler.

"Okay, yeah.  I've heard of those.  Like for awards shows or big events to make the house seem more full?  Must be cool to see all those performances and games and get paid to do it."

-Oh, I don't do it for the money.  I just do it for Trump and because I love him.

"Darn, my bad.  Look at the time.  I just remembered to get my malaria pills before I leave for Guam in the morning, forever.  I got the check, see ya later."

The first paragraph is perfect. He has no interest in uniting us or governing for us. He’s so mentally ill that even after a life filled with every advantage he’s absolutely miserable. That’s why the cult loves him. They’re miserable too. It says more about the mental health crisis in this country than anything else.
 

I think that’s why the Kamala energy has gone so crazy. We’re tired of hearing how terrible the country is and how awful those of us outside the cult are. We finally have someone capable of communicating that.

Seeing this shit makes me incredibly proud of my parents.  Early 70’s, white, dad’s a retired USAF full bird and mom was a nurse/QA/admin type…prime demo to get pulled into this shit.  

Dad tells me all the time about the crazy crap his ‘peers’ in Sun City say…and then proceeds to make fun of them before buzzing away in his electric car.  The Colonel rarely cusses, but will get a serious look (the one I feared as a kid) in his eye before saying ‘they’re all a bunch of complete dumbasses’.

Ignore the idiot- just watch the video.  Watch it closely, even multiple times (I stopped at 8).

Find a black person.  Any black person. I guess the 12-15 black props (Err, I mean people) behind the stage were the only ones who came to show their support?

Shit, ya gotta throw the OG, Kim Jong-Il, into the mix as well. Sure he's probably lost a little bit of his fastball being dead and all, but we're talking about a guy that shot 38 under, including 11 holes-in-one, at the 7,700-yard championship course at Pyongyang in the VERY FIRST golf round of his life.

My hope is, if Kamala gets to the point that it is clear or at least likely that she wins, more republicans (the ones the secretly reject trumpism) come out in support of her, knowing that after the election they won’t face retribution. 
 

it wont be many because they have all been cowards so far.

Trump is just getting lazy at this point.  Little Brian Kemp? That’s the best you got?  It’s like Lyin’ Kamala. Break out a new nickname every once in a while.  Trump is not so quiet quitting.
