This is the biggest loser post I've seen in awhile.

"If we lose it's because religious whites will vote for Trump no matter what"!!!!

Yeah I'm sure Shane, Freeme, and the rest of the LGBQT community will really consider keeping their options open at the voting booth.

More importantly, it will confirm my impression of religious, white Republicans. Winning!

Gee why wouldn't they vote for a party filled with religious bigots?

Just don't say anything bad about Muslims

I don't discriminate between superstitions, Race. I know some people just need them. But I do judge.

Yes you do just like the rest of the left. Muslims good - Christians and Jews bad

The Muslims shit on everything you believe and you can't suck hard enough

"The Muslims" are no more monolithic than "the Christians" or "the Jews".

See?

And yet you were fine with your monolithic smear of Christians

"Forty-seven percent of WEPs say that Trump’s behavior makes no difference to their support. Thirty-one percent say there is almost nothing that Trump could do to forfeit their approval. This is preemptive permission for any violation of the moral law or the constitutional order. It is not support; it is obeisance.

An extraordinary 99 percent of Republican WEPs oppose the impeachment and removal of the president — which probably puts me in the smallest political minority I have ever had the honor of occupying.

If Trump survives the impeachment process and somehow wins a second term, many explanations will be offered. It may be that the Democratic Party went too far left, or picked a nominee with a glass jaw, or couldn’t swim against the political tide of a good economy. But there will be one reason behind all of these reasons: because evangelicals lost their taste for character and gave their blessing to corruption. And this grand act of hypocrisy would mark them for a generation."

I actually agree with this to a degree. Evangelicals going all in for Trump, despite his past, has not been a good look for consistency.
