Jesus v. Trump
When I saw this photo I had to work hard not to throw up.
Then, I thought the person who was waving the sign was probably a confessing Christian and that led me to search for some Biblical wisdom which would justify such a comment.
Anyone with any knowledge of the New Testament knows immediately that there is nothing in that collection of tall tales and extended letters that would provide a basis for thanking the "Lord Jesus For President TRUMP."
But I did find a verse that describes in a perfectly poignant fashion what Jesus would have done if he had been at this rally. It's in the Gospel of John, chapter 11, verse 35:
"Jesus wept."

Those two words of scripture definitely fit.
Donald Trump literally represents everything Christ spoke against. And evangelicals think that's all fine.
So incredibly sad. Poor deluded people. (There are just so many of them.) Yes, that verse says it all.
Apparently, Jeff Sessions is now saying that there is some sort of Biblical support for taking children away from their parents, so I guess these guys can make the Bible say anything they want.
