It would be something if they were actually sincere about their Christianity.
Yep - under the guise of transforming England into what we might recognise as a protomodern state, Cromwell's actions basically constituted just another coup.In some ways it feels like things Europe already went through generations ago or get to quicker the US is playing some sort of twisted catch up.
Have been watching the show The Tudors (yeah I know I'm slacking) and you are reminded that what's happening now in America has some eerie parallels with what happened under Henry VIII.
Barr is the absolute worst imo. If only they could impeach/indict him and get him out of the way then things would have a chance of taking a different turn.It just blows the mind. Trump sends Barr to meet with Murdoch. Next day he starts praising the network again, and the most honest, sorry, anti-Trump, anchor leaves.
I know their base isn't very clever, but at least pretend to have some ounce of credibility ffs.
Also, Bill Barr - you're quickly climbing up the list to be alongside Devin Nunes as the absolute worst. Top 5 most evil at this stage.

It was founded by white, rich, religious slave holders after all.
Vote these mother feckers out. It's genocide.That absolutely exterminated the inhabitants with nothing but superficial remorse for centuries after.

Who you're gonna vote for then?
Apparently this was shown at a Trump event. Don Jr and Sarah Sanders were there. Trump's not distancing himself from it.
Totally normal, that country.
Yeah. Hit the one in the middle.The one's who do less of it
"Melania just told me I have the biggest dick she's ever seen and no one ever made her orgasm before she was with me. Thank you Melania, I agree!
Whats that? Can you have a new coat? Sure you can!!"

If you watch The Family on Netflix, it would make more sense. It goes far beyond than Bannon.This is Steve Bannon's America ( Capitalism, nationalism, and “Judeo-Christian values). This is why Betsy Devos was chosen as a Secretary Of Education. She as very strong ties to the religious right and a hunger to create private faith schools and use public schools to fund it. The WH as been taken over by a cult.
I've been meaning to watch that. Seems a bit deep.If you watch The Family on Netflix, it would make more sense. It goes far beyond than Bannon.
And for almost 200 years before the founding, America was a breeding ground for all the Christians who were too extreme* for Europe back then.Been saying this for a long time.
The USA is basically a moody teenager at the minute and it's moving through stages that we've seen over in Europe for centuries.
People forget how young a country it is and also forget that the origins of the country in terms of where the founders came from mean it's gonna be very similar to how European countries moved through the times.
Trumpism won't end with Trump.I've been meaning to watch that. Seems a bit deep.
Mrs Blaggs won't watch it. She's done with this regime. Peanut m$ms this weekend
If you want to delve even deeper historically, the ‘they are rapists, they are murderers’ Trump line is especially ironic, because those were precisely the sort sent to the New World.And for almost 200 years before the founding, America was a breeding ground for all the Christians who were too extreme* for Europe back then.
*probably not all were extremists, but I'm sure the crazies made good use of the opportunity here

Newt Gingrich says hi.In 100 years I think historians will look at Rush and Hannity as the precursors that set the stage for a Trump. And sadly you're right, it won't end with him if he loses in 2020.
Hannity is barely a sidebar compared to Newt.Newt Gingrich says hi.
