He’s announced that you can’t have an election in a political season. He’s going to bring crime back to law and order. This guy’s brain is porridge. Although he’s certainly correct about the crime part.

It's funny how Biden's obvious mental issues are a campaign issue but Trump's baseline policy insanity makes it hard to tell that he's suffering a similar fate.

If he stops being entertaining, it's time to be concerned.

Endorses the Bible? How in the living fuck can actual Christians follow this charlatan? If they’d actually pay attention to their holy book, they would see he’s closer to the anti-Christ than the messiah.

I mean, it’s getting kinda hard to blame him for selling all this garbage. If his sheeple keep buying it… Maybe he’ll put out 12 different versions of this endorsed Bible.

Heard a great podcast about what he’s doing with all this and selling the truth social thing.

It’s basically a massive money laundering operation to cover money coming from? and he or his people think it’s mad cleverly designed but they’re gonna get caught. Again. Shoes bibles personal appearances toilet brushes etc etc etc
But he doesn’t care cos the money will get him outta jail today and just get to tomorrow. The whole thing is just get to tomorrow.

honest question: How is Trump's capitalization of religious sentiment any different from the normal kind?

I'm pretty sure he's an atheist, but it's really no different. Everything he does is a sleazy grift. The fact that this one involves religion is incidental.

Me either! I’m not disagreeing with you.

I would say that like most American Christians, he is utilizing Christianity wherever he perceives gain from it and then ditching the parts that are an inconvenience (or that clash with his personal beliefs).

Because when he talks about it and tries to sell you it he doesn't even pretend to know anything about it. I respect that

Current rumblings around the MAGA right: there will be no 'fortifying' the election this time around and the powers that be are happy with him winning as they are going to be able to hang (unspecific economic cataclysm) around his neck. Is this a stage of grief?

Can't figure out what if anything in the news cycle is inspiring this.

The Spectator ran an article saying that Biden’s campaign is doomed because more Republicans than Democrats turned out in state primaries.

If you’ve convinced yourself that you only lost last time because the deep state interfered, then your “we’re gonna win this time” narrative necessitates a rationale for why they aren’t stepping in to do the same this time.
