The Morals And Values Crowd

Have given us the most dangerously immoral president in American history. And not only do they act like he was appointed by God, they actively cheer on his absurd and reckless behavior because they don't want to play nice to the other side. Honestly if we advocated against kicking puppies, they would literally start kicking puppies. That's how insane, deranged and unhinged the morals and values crowd is. Who needs Al Qaeda when we have the Family Research Council? Or Focus On The Family? You know - Trump's "very fine people".

The Donald J. Trump administration - brought to you by the Values Voters. Values Voters - promoting immoral behavior disguised as religious since 1975!

2. The base shares some really nasty traits with Trump.

They never admit when they're wrong & in fact, will often double down. You see that in their support of him. The other thing they admire, is that all of Trump's life he has been able to do & say what he wants & get away with it, never been held accountable. They want that for themselves, & they like that about him, even as it gets him in trouble as president. The GOP courted the zealots & racists to get votes & now they've lost control of their party. They can't win without Trump's base & they know that.

Also, a bunch of them are complicit in the Russian mess.

As long as he's in power, he's their face. As long as they think he's the almighty, he's their face. As long as they stand by his reckless behavior, he's their face. I've said before - how do you take the moral high ground when you're dealing with people who have no morals? Or ethics? Or dignity? Or respect?
