President Donald Trump is a sinking ship, and he’s taking the Republican Party with him. It may take that party a long time to recover from its foolishness of selling out to Trumpism. It’s happening because of Trump’s self-inflicted wounds that are growing more malignant every day. The result is that Joe Biden, Trump’s opponent to stop his bid for reelection for the presidency come November, is on average ten percentage points ahead of Trump in the polls, and that... Read more
Yesterday, a political group of military veterans called VoteVets aired a TV ad calling President Donald Trump “Benedict Donald–America’s number one traitor.” It says in a voiceover, “No one has betrayed those in uniform like Donald Trump.” I do think he’s a draft dodger, making him such a hypocrite to be commander-in-chief. But what about this–the new Benedict Arnold? I’m a vet, and this makes me cringe. Benedict Arnold was the greatest traitor of the U.S. ever, which occurred in... Read more
Chris Cuomo is the younger brother of New York’s Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo. Their father was that state’s governor for three terms. Chris is a journalist who has his popular Cuomo Prime Time news program on CNN every weeknight. U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted Wednesday, belittling Chris Cuomo’s recent TV ratings and calling him “Fredo.” I understand it refers to a character in the Godfather movie. That shows where I think Trump’s interests lie–watching the Godfather movie. I think he... Read more
In early June, Sean Spicer, former White House press secretary for President Donald Trump, asked him, “have you grown in your faith?” The president answered, “So I think maybe I have, from the standpoint that I see so much that I can do. I’ve done so much for religion.” Uh, Mr. President, I don’t think that’s what Mr. Spicer meant. He was talking about you personally. In August, 2015, when Donald Trump first started his political campaign to run for... Read more
Where is U.S. President Donald Trump in treating this horrible health crisis called COVID-19 that our nation and the world is suffering for nearly six months now? First he said it was nothing, that it would go away soon, like “a miracle.” Then, when he realized that wasn’t true, he said, “nobody knew this was coming” or something like it. That was just his narcissism speaking–if he doesn’t know something, then nobody knows it. Yet we had had many epidemiologists,... Read more
I’ve been an evangelical Christian all of my adult life. The Pew Research Center conducted a survey right after the 2016 presidential election. It revealed that of all professing evangelical Christians who voted in that election, 81% voted for Donald Trump as president. (I have blogged previously that their survey was a little skewed, so that the actual number likely was not that high.) That was astonishing because everyone knew that Donald Trump had lived a lifestyle that was anything... Read more
President Donald Trump has been defending his calling this COVID-19 crisis the “China Flu” since it originated in China. Many have alleged that that is racist. At Trump’s political rally Saturday night in Tulsa, he also called it the “Kung Flu,” as if that is humorous. Not a good thing to joke about since 120,000 Americans have died from COVID-19 in only four months, and many will be blaming him for a certain portion of these deaths due to his... Read more
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. The Bible says, “Like a maniac who shoots deadly firebrands and arrows, so is one who deceives a neighbor and says, ‘I am only joking!'” (Proverbs 26.18-19 NRSV). Donald Trump, or along with his aides, has done this multiple times in his 3.5year presidency. Ever since this COVID-19 health crisis has struck the world four months ago, our health experts have been saying that testing people to find out if they... Read more
All those guys out there who think they are so tough and macho or just plain individualistic, and therefore refuse to wear a mask in public because of this terrible health crisis called COVID-19 that we are going through, should listen to what The Terminator has to say about it. California Governor Gavin Newsom issued an order this week making it mandatory for California residents to wear a mask or other facial covering due to the COVID-19 health crisis that... Read more
Webb Simpson–the 2012 U.S. Open and 2018 Players champion–won the RBC Heritage Classic at Harbor Town on Hilton Head Island today. Simpson birdied his last five out of seven holes to defeat Abraham Ancer by one stroke for a tournament record 72-hole score of 262. It was Simpson’s seventh win of the PGA Tour. Right now, Webb Simpson is rated the fifth best professional golfer in the world. This was the second tournament since the Tour resumed its tournament schedule,... Read more
