Why Do White Christian Evangelicals Worship A Pervert Prez Who Loves Spankings & Golden Showers?

"Stormy! Why ya had to spank me so hard! I can hardly sit, or pee!"

By now most everyone in the US of A knows what a pervert Donald Dotard is, and it was interesting to see last week, former Bush Jr. WH ethics guy (Richard Painter) fulminate about it, e.g.

https://www.mediaite.com/online/richard-painter-slas-trump-over-stormy-daniels-nothing-sexy-about-dirty-old-men-in-politics/


As well as insinuating there may be other legal ramifications,  including from paying hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels in the amount of $130,000.   It didn't appear to have worked as that story,  including lurid details, managed to reappear in a republished 2011  In Touch interview with Daniels. Therein she described having a sexual affair with Trump which included her beating his ass with a FORBES magazine. (The spanking was revealed in a string of emails) Subsequently,  Mother Jones basically confirmed all the sordid details that Daniels described from her 2006 encounters  For reference, see:

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/01/stormy-daniels-trump-spanking-forbes-and-shark-week.html

According  to a trove of  2009 emails exchanged between political operatives (advising Daniels at the time on a possible political campaign), the adult film actress claimed that her affair with Trump included spanking him with a copy of Forbes.  By one account,  a political consultant to Andrea Dubé related in an email that:

"He made her sit with him for three hours watching Shark Week. Another time he had her spank him with a Forbes magazine," 

The magazine used evidently had Dotard's  face on the cover which no doubt provides endless material for any Freudian school psychiatrists and psychologists.   See this humorous take from  late night host Stephen Colbert:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-gMiiZOSYQ

Recall also this isn't Dotard's first pervert rodeo. From the Steele dossier we already know he was into "golden showers". As reported therein by former MI 6  spy Christopher Steele's sources:

"Trump's perverted conduct in Moscow (2013) included hiring the presidential suite of the Ritz Carlton Hotel. where he knew President and Mrs. Obama (whom he hated) had  stayed on one of their official trips to Russia, and defiling the bed where they had slept by employing a number of prostitutes to perform a 'golden showers'  (urination) show in front of him.   The hotel was known to be under FSB control with microphones and concealed cameras in all the main rooms to record anything they wanted to."

This was reported in 2013, while Trump's spanking antics  with Stormy Daniels occurred in 2006,  little more than a year after his marriage to Melania and barely 3 months after the birth of son, Barron.  All of which makes the inquiring secularist ask: Why aren't the white Christian evangelicals crawling all over his ass about his infidelity as well as predilection for perversion?  Have they no shame? Or are they just moral hypocrites? This inquiring atheist wants to know. Same way as I did when the RC Church tried to take back their fictitious moral high ground after their priestly pederasty was exposed.

Look, like any other red-blooded 'Murican, Trump is entitled to indulge in his unusual sexual proclivities as long as they are consensual.  Where I and many others have problems is when white Christian evangelicals support his  most radical,  un-Christian behavior,  (like praising Nazis as "very fine people")  then giving him a pass. . See e.g. Tony Perkins of the hyper self -righteous, conservative Family Research Council,  giving Trump his benediction via a "Mulligan" (moral do over):

https://www.cnn.com/2018/01/23/politics/tony-perkins-trump-affairs-mulligan/index.html

But as  conservative WaPo columnist Jennifer Rubin put it at the end of All In last night, "This isn't about Perkins or his group promoting any faith, but politics." Of course!  The white evangelicals know they have a puppet who will come out swinging against the LGBT populace, sign any anti-immigration laws he's given, and appoint all the anti-abortion justices he can. Just don't tell him to give up his porn star spankings! Hell, someone needs to discipline this deranged imp. 

Ms. Rubin added. providing some stark clarity:

"These white Christians are now, for the first time, not in the majority of the American people.  So they're no longer just leaders, they are grievance leaders.  They feel  this put upon, discriminated against, angry sentiment that their fellowship voices. They don't like being displaced from authority in society. They think women, they think immigrants, they think gays are somehow displacing them taking what is rightfully theirs. And these people are out to claim it. They believe - and in some really interesting polling - they think they are the victims and not African -Americans, and not gays in terms of discrimination in America. That is how twisted it is."

For which insights I give her a '10' out of 10. 

 Hmmmm....grievance leaders?  Poor little victims of those nasty "libtards", "commies", Blacks and gays. Oh, the pity!   But as Denver Post Sunday Editor Chuck Plunkett points out ('Donald Trump's True Believers',  Jan. 21, p. 1D) this does have repercussions for the integrity and propriety of evangelicalism - in much the same way their support of Roy Moore in Alabama cheapened their moral brand. 

As Plunkett wrote, after his interview with Jeff Hunt - director of the Centennial Institute of Colorado Christian University:

"When it comes to politics Hunt has one of the worst cases of true believer syndrome I've ever seen. Again and again his defense of Trump is purely partisan, no matter the violent it creates with Christian values and beliefs."

Which is precisely the point Jennifer Rubin also made about the white evangelicals and why they aren't doing more for  "the least among us", e.g. sick citizens in terms of health care, or the homeless, or Dreamers who've done nothing wrong.  Why aren't they in soup kitchens helping to feed the hungry instead of trying to take away social safety net after safety net? Why are they more obsessed over the life and health of a fetus than an already born 1 or 2 year old who needs expensive treatment for spinal bifida or cancer?

Well uh, because they feel hard put upon by all those damned minorities - which together are quickly rendering them a white minority. Excuse me, a white evangelical Christian minority.

As both Ms. Rubin and Mr. Plunkett put it: :White Christians "want power and Trump gives it to them."   He gives them power over those same minorities they detest. Never mind it comes with a toxic source, from a guy who's groped dozens of women who never wanted his attentions, never mind his spanking fetish.

The questions most of us in the secular political realm want answered are: How can evangelicals be so hypocritical? Why aren't they consigning this jackass to eternal perdition, because he sure as hell hasn't been saved? 

Nowhere is there any evidence that he truly believes on the Lord Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, the path to salvation according to the oft cited John 3:16.

Plunkett  himself pursues this dichotomy further, asking:

"What about that escapade with Stormy Daniels, the porn star that The Wall Street Journal reported got the hush money? 

According to Plunkett, Hunt at least agreed that he "wasn't supportive of the sins of pornography"  but he "wasn't sure the report was credible". In other words, like other ignorant putzes he believes it's fake news. Let's just dump this one time given the WSJ is not your typical "liberal rag"  but one of the more conservative (but still respected) news sources. Indeed, it's run by Rupert Murdoch who also runs FOX News.

Why though do the white evangelicals so ardently support this pervert prez? Plunkett lists the reasons as conveyed to him by Hunt:

-  Removing protections (from discrimination) for the LGBT-gay community

- Ending the requirement that employers pay for their employees' contraception

-  Placing conservative  justices on the courts to overturn liberal rulings

-  Repealing the Cole memo which was issued under the Obama DOJ and allowed states which passed MJ laws to preserve  their application and integrity.

When Plunkett pursued whether Evangelicals ought to support  a president without question, Hunt was non-committal.  Proving again Jennifer Rubin's take that he like Tony Perkins is just a "grievance leader" not a moral leader. Moral leaders would not support a presidential toxic turd like Donnie Dumpster fire.

Plunkett's conclusion?

"Trump is no Christian. He is a Judas playing evangelicals for fools. Sadly, that makes Hunt's unflinching support a Judas position."

It also renders all other evangelicals who support Dotard the same:   holding "Judas positions".  If the white evangelicals had a scintilla of moral or ethical fiber they'd be deserting Trump in droves. That they aren't discloses they not only support his toxic policies but his toxic morals - or lack of them -as well. 

Swine -in-Chief's Attack On Mika Brzezinski Shows He Isn't Fit To Clean Porto -Potties

"And you remember this disgusting dude is the president of the United States, and you realize how much he is diminishing the presidency of the United States.  You realize what he is doing is not just acting for Donald Trump, he's acting for all of us.  And he is embarrassing. He is shameful. He is disgusting. 

And about Republicans, I'm really tired of hearing words like 'I'm disappointed',  and 'I wish he wouldn't do it.'  It's time that somebody called him up and said 'Look, you crazy, seventy year old man-baby, stop it! You are now the President of the United States, the Commander-in -Chief. and you need to stop acting like a mean girl because we just won't take it."

CNN commentator Ana Navarro on Trump's tweet attack on Mika Brzezinski

See the rant here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhhXtCkt9CE

"It's a sad day when the president spends his time bullying, lying and spewing petty personal attacks instead of doing is job". - MSNBC official statement


So now the pretender to the presidency who acts like the thug he is, has so little incentive to occupy his time and febrile brain he has to resort to a craven personal attack on a morning talk show host, in this case Mika Brzezinski. I happened to have been watching Morning Joe just before the twisted little maggot at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue unleashed his unseemly rants in tweets (which I won't repeat here) confirming this asshole isn't fit to clean porto-potties in NYC,  far less hold the highest office in the land. He's a damned disgrace, and an embarrassment to us all, as well as the laughing stock overseas, e.g. these German cartoons:

Earlier I'd been watching as Joe Scarborough and Mika did a  nice piece on Politico's story of how Rex Tillerson blew up at a WH aide (now known to be Kushner). And why not? A wizened former CEO of a major company forced to take shit from some 38-year old punk who doesn't know diddly? I'd be jacked up too.  As Joe and Mika both noted, it shed more light on how the Trump bunch just hung Tillerson out to dry without a pot to piss in: no staff, no money for staff, conflicts erupting all the while and no resources to deal with them .... And Tillerson expected to take marching orders from a wet behind the ears, inexperienced imp. 

But Trump's unloading on Mika Brzezinski is par for the course of a glorified real estate swindler who never learned the finer elements of behavior or approached real success on his own. As Mika and Joe put it, "He's jealous of Jeff Bezos' success because he didn't have daddy's money to buy his way in. He got to the top by his own smarts and  acumen to the point he could even produce his own movies and buy his own newspaper - the Washington Post."  So instead of handling the putdown like a man, the despicable little weasel blew a gasket and unleashed vicious tweets - dog whistles to his followers.

Let's also note this is part of Trump's recently renewed crusade against the established media, railing against its "fake news" mandate while everyone with a brain knows it's Trump who's the fake. Hell, he even has to resort to putting fake TIME covers of himself on his assorted properties' walls. How pathetic.  In the case of Trump, as numerous leaks have revealed, we behold a guy unable to settle into the role demanded by the job of President. Many wonder if he even possesses the mental ability to govern - or merely disrupt like a mentally regressed ignoramus.

But not his rube PR puppet, Sara "Huckleberry" Sanders,  who said in the wake:  "this is a president who fights with fire and will not be bullied by liberal media". 

Seriously?  What "fire"? All Ms. Brzezinski did was criticize Trump as all presidents have been criticized from the year dot. What will the simpleton nutcase do next, go after Ana Navarro for her takedown of his actions? Is he that thin-skinned? Then he shouldn't be in the Oval Office, period. "If you can't take the heat" and all that.

"Huckleberry" then went on to double down and defend her asswipe master, saying "when he's attacked he strikes back".  But see, he wasn't "attacked". He was merely criticized as every other President has been since George Washington. It comes with the job and maybe if it's too much for Trump to handle he needs to resign and go back to being a two- bit, New York real estate swindler.

Even Trump's wife, Melania, who claimed she wanted to "campaign against cyber bullying" has been reduced to a shameless hypocrite by this latest incident. When asked about it she tweeted: "When he gets attacked he will punch back 10 time harder", taking a page from Sara Huckleberry's playbook of nonsense, conflating justifiable criticism with an "attack".

But this latest incident may be a new low in disclosing how vile and unpresidential this warped, orange-skinned turd is. Hitherto, I and many others had pegged the nadir as his meeting with Angela Merkel.  He sat next to her like a goddamned spoiled brat,  pouting, like he just had his sippy cup taken away,  and refused to even shake her hand! The epitome of classlessness, and gauche behavior. Commenting on this exhibition, NY Times' Richard Cohen wrote:

"When Donald Trump met Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany earlier this month, he put on one of his most truculent and ignorant performances."

Meanwhile, another commenter (on a NY Times forum)  also wrote:

"Trump's behavior with Merkel was not only disgraceful, it showed the rest of the world what a shallow, ignorant, unprepared, know-nothing he really is. Every American, and especially every Republican who voted for this man, ought to be ashamed and embarrassed. The GOP has besmirched the presidency, harmed our national security and soiled our country's international reputation"

But let's not kid ourselves, this thug in the guise of a president has been pegged accurately early and often, from the time he soiled the Oval Office on January 20th.  Some earlier spot on remarks:

"Trump's own instincts and inclinations (are responsible). A thirst for attention that leads to hyperactivity. He needs to dominate every news cycle which feeds a compulsive tweet habit. It has placed him almost continuously at the center of the national conversation and not always to his benefit".  - Charles Krauthammer (WaPo,  'What Happened to the Honeymoon?, Jan. 12)

"Trump simply can’t resist playground pushback. His tweets gave Meryl Streep’s Golden Globes screed priceless publicity. His mocking Arnold Schwarzenegger for bad “Apprentice” ratings — compared with “the ratings machine, DJT” — made Trump look small and Arnold (almost) sympathetic." Charles Krauthammer ibid.

"Since winning the election, Trump has not moderated his behavior. He still behaves like a brat ..."  - Richard Cohen, WaPo

"Let’s not mumble or whisper about the central issue facing our country: What is this democratic nation to do when the man serving as president of the United States plainly has no business being president of the United States? The Michael Flynn fiasco was the entirely predictable product of the indiscipline, deceit, incompetence and moral indifference that characterize Donald Trump’s approach to leadership. "  E.J. Dionne, The Washington Post, 'Admit It: Trump Is Unfit To Serve'

"Our boy president has surrounded himself by a team that tells him his coat is beautiful - but he's not wearing one. Let's recognize the heartbreak in this ...that we might be faced with a President who is not up to the task of the office he ran for and what do we do with that?" Fmr. Rep. David Jolly (R-FLA)

"President Trump’s mental state is like a train that long ago left freewheeling and iconoclastic, has raced through indulgent, chaotic and unnerving, and is now careening past unhinged, unmoored and unglued." - David Brooks, NY Times  Feb. 17

This deranged imbecile has tried - with outside handlers- to act like he's in command of his senses, but it can't be sustained. Like a small, thin-skinned child somebody's words (often women's)  eventually get to this brash degenerate and he's compelled to react. While diehard Trumpsters may love this sort of reactionary behavior, it doesn't comport with strength especially in a President. What it shows is that any twerp, misfit, or non-political person (without political power) can get under the big man's skin and make him freak out.

In other words, it shows he is hostage to any insult that comes down the pike and from any direction. Whereas, as philosopher Alan Watts notes in his book 'Does It Matter?', the truly strong personality is able to rest content in its own fortress of confidence and doesn't need to react to every slight perceived or misperceived. This person- personality, has enough mental and psychological ballast to contain and blunt pure emotional response. But....a personality arrested at the infantile or anal stage (as Hornstein notes) lacks the resources for resilient impulse control.

Not to be too blunt, but Trump would be better suited  being a cage match brawler - or inflated, self important, chiseling deal maker - than President of the U.S.    Recall the Donald has never really worked at a real job outside of owning his family branding business (who could order anyone to do his bidding) and being a NY real estate weasel who used bankruptcy (of multiple casinos) to make more $$$.   Even in his family biz Ivanka, Jared, Donald Jr. and the others had to keep him occupied with ogling Miss Universe contestants so he didn't get his grubby little mitts in too many family pots and muck them up. They knew then he couldn't be entrusted to do serious work, and yet they let his play acting mock campaign morph into the real thing and then somehow get elected (with the likely help of the Russkies.)

Hell, five days into his presidency the fruits of his massive incompetence were exposed for all to see.  He  even bawled that the job had  turned out to be too much for him to deal with. Too many details, too much stuff to master for an extensive government bureaucracy.  Hence, his penchant for becoming a cable TV and tweet addict. See e.g.

http://theconcourse.deadspin.com/donald-trump-stunned-to-learn-presidency-is-an-actual-j-1792215349

But we don't really need outside quotes to peg Trump to what he is: a basic criminal with reptilian cunning who used his money and lying capacity along with collusion with external forces to get catapulted into an office for which he's totally unqualified.  Who could forget the campaign boast:

I could stand in the middle of fifth avenue and shoot somebody and not lose any voters" - Donald Trump in a 2016 campaign brag.

See:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTACH1eVIaA

Let's also not forget this common thug's own enticement of violent behavior at his rallies, where he actually encouraged Trumpies to punch out protestors, and even go after the media.  So no we can't be surprised there's a thug now occupying the presidency who in many ways is no better than Osama bin Laden or an ISIS thug. The only difference is he's Caucasian and had money enough to fool adequate voters in 3 states to win the electoral vote.

As long as Trump is in office there will be no peace or civility in this country, no end to the polarization.  As several Repubs tweeted in response yesterday, this outburst "demeans the office and doesn't help the national dialogue". In fact it sets it back light years. Certainly, progressives will now be more hardened than ever against this ambulatory turd.  The Denver Post's Chuck Plunkett's words from his editorial of February 5 should remain emblazoned in all citizens' minds as they ponder the latest Trump twitter brain expulsion:

"In whatever spider hole in hell they've placed bin Laden, along with all the other petty tyrants of history, all of them must now be laughing. For in the days following 9/11 we grew to despise a thug terrorist who wished to destroy what it meant to be an American. Now, in the days after Inauguration Day, 2017, we find ourselves led by a thug president bent on finishing the job."  - Chuck Plunkett, Editor of The Denver Post, Feb. 5, p. 1D

Don't be surprised by any more antics or venom issuing from President Thug. Just be aware we have a common thug in the Oval office and no amount of gentle pressure or even shame will get him to change to become a decent, self-respecting human, far less a real President with any degree of reserve or dignity. In other words one worthy of respect as opposed to opprobrium and revulsion. What we can do, all who want a return to a nation they can respect, is make sure his ass is hurled out once and for all come November, 2020.

Fool us once, shame on the deceitful thug. Fool us again......well you know the rest!
