Donald Trump is Not the Problem / We Are

Donald Trump is not the problem.

Jesus heard the reports. Jesus heard the rumblings. Jesus felt the oppression.

Jesus didn’t send out messages. Jesus didn’t make phone calls. Jesus didn’t sign petitions. Jesus didn’t organize at all.

Jesus believed in the power of one. Jesus believed in the fury of a prophet. Jesus went alone.

Jesus approached the center of power. Jesus pushed into the Temple. Jesus saw the corruption. Jesus did not hesitate. Jesus went to work.

Jesus tossed out Donald Trump. Jesus tossed out Jeff Sessions. Jesus tossed out Betsy Devos. Jesus forced them all out.

Jesus overturned their tables. Jesus scattered their money. Jesus drove them out of power.

Jesus had courage. Jesus had determination. Jesus gave his body. Jesus won.

Jesus destroyed power. Jesus birthed liberation. Jesus changed the world.
