Frank Amedia, leader of Trump’s spiritual adviser group in the 2016 campaign, takes the Trump worship to a new level by claiming that the opposition to him is part of a “demonic” plot of “murderous spirits” to prevent the second coming of Christ. So apparently Trump’s reelection is the key to that happening. (more…) Read more

I simply can’t make heads or tails out of this bizarre statement Trump made on Fox and Friends about Kellyanne Conway’s husband George and his very strong criticism of him. He appears to not only blame her for his statements, but says that it must mean she’s done something terrible to him to make him turn on him so harshly. (more…) Read more

When father and son fascist team Walid and Theodore Shoebat write a column together, you know it’s going to be a festival of hypocrisy and bigotry. In their latest joint column, they claim that White House adviser Stephen Miller is a white supremacist because he’s Jewish and they enabled the rise of Hitler, who tried to wipe them off the planet.

Any criticism of Trump is therefore criticizing the country, and then magically all criticism of the country is turned into treason. Wrong on both counts. (more…) Read more
