It’s almost a year and a half until the next elections. But I’m starting to think that things aren’t polling nearly as well for the Harris (or, haha, Biden, sure, whatevs) ticket as the media says.
Reason?
Because the “Christian boogeyman“ is already making headlines.
The only way I could get through the article without laughing was to read it out loud, pretending that I was George Clooney playing Edward R. Murrow.
It was an hour and a half into the 11 a.m. service of a church that represents a rapidly growing kind of Christianity in the United States, one whose goal includes bringing under the authority of a biblical God every facet of life, from schools to city halls to Washington, where the pastor had traveled a month after the Jan. 6 insurrection and filmed himself in front of the U.S. Capitol saying quietly, “Father, we declare America is yours.”
You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.
Don’t worry about the world’s richest man owning the WaPo, worry about this preacher in Texas, says WaPo writer . . .
Wake up, sheeple, can’t you see it! Open your eyes, people, we are literally days away from the Handmaids Tale. Action needed now!
At this point Handmaid’s Tale is a best case scenario. I think that we are talking full-on “A Boy and His Dog.”
