It’s alive and well on DU though.

This crap is all over the country. Dotard acolytes in the West, the Midwest, the north, even in dear old California.

But go on ahead with your south bashing. Been awhile since we’ve had a good south bashing thread...

I’m from the Southeast. I lived here my whole life. There are large numbers of racist, bigoted, Christian, white supremacists residing in Georgia and other Southeastern states.

If it's the God of the Bible, and he's real, I'll acknowledge him, but I still won't worship the immoral thug.

Nixon used overt racism before Reagan, but Reagan started the distrust of science, logic, and truth that's now running our government.

Loyalty to Trump is being preached in some Christian churches as a tenet of the Christian faith.

The majority of Christian voters cast their ballots for Trump in 2016. Most of them will probably do it again, enthusiastically, in 2020, if they're given the chance.

The Bible contains stories about horrible men who did much worse things than Trump has ever done, who were nevertheless blessed and favored by God, and put into positions of great power. Given that, it really isn't all that unreasonable for Christians to believe that God put Trump into the office of the president, in order to implement his will.

They must have gotten some help from the billboard company.

(And no, I can't take credit for that. It's a bumper sticker that's out there.)

I have driven past the I-75 billboards for years now. The current or former Q Anon billboard on the I-75 North side of the interstate is not far from the ENORMOUS confederate flag looming over I-75 from an adjacent hillside.

If you ever venture off the interstate in this area, you will encounter rural properties with huge Trump, Kemp & GOP signs along the road frontages. It boggles the mind. These rabid, religious, Republican freaks are unreconstructed confederates. They are traitors, racists and bigots.
