Need a Plan B. Problem is that it does not exist!

The sun is shining, and spring is in full bloom.

Yet, as Max Boot writes, "I am in despair as I have never been before about the future of our experiment in self-rule."

tRump has proved over and over again that nobody will do anything even if he shoots somebody in the middle of 5th Avenue.

And now he apparently has god also on his side!
“People say, ‘How do you get through that whole stuff? How do you get through those witch hunts and everything else?’” Trump said, turning to Vice President Pence. “And you know what we do, Mike? We just do it, right? And we think about God.”
Holy shit!

And, he continued:
“One of the things that Mike and I were discussing just a little while ago—people are so proud to be using that beautiful word, God, and they’re using the word God again, and they’re not hiding from it,” he said. “They’re not being told to take it down, and they’re not saying we can’t honor God. In God we trust. So important.”
Thus spake the pussy-grabbing sleazeball!

It does not shock me anymore that the religious right is solidly behind this horrible human being.  While politics always has made strange bedfellows, never have we witnessed such a combination.  The righteous followers of Jesus in bed with "the racist, pxxxy-grabbing, child-caging, transphobic, Muslim-hating, “sh*t hole” mocking Nazi apologist," as Charles Blow describes tRump.

We continue to dig way down and far away from the high bar that Abraham Lincoln set.  Lincoln  was asked if God was on his side, during the Civil War.  To which Lincoln replied: “Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God’s side, for God is always right.”

If god is always right, and he has selected tRump as his envoy, as the evangelicals claim in their support for him, does it mean that god approves racism; pussy-grabbing; child-caging; homo- and trans-phobia; Islamophobia; mocking the poor in shitholes; promoting white supremacy; ...?

Maybe god will reelect him in 2020 in order to teach us non-believers a lesson that we will never forget!
