Today's Republicans do in fact have Christian values

Slavery, women as property, endorsement of rape, genocide (ok if Sky Daddy or his self-proclaimed moral authorities demands it), death penalty for many very minor offenses, suppression of learning and inquiry, apostasy is the greatest possible sin.

Yes, current Republicans are so racist they would be very happy if slavery of "non-whites" were re-instituted.

I could go on, but those are some pretty strong bullet points right there.

If you are a Christian and object to these characterizations of your Bible's teachings, you haven't read it.

Look at what the Christians of Europe have done over the centuries. Exactly that. Genocide, rape, slavery, authoritarianism.

Yes we all assume he'll appeal but doesn't there have to be some basis?

Doesn't there have to be some sort of reasonable assertion of an error in law or fact by the lower court for an appeal to even be accepted by an appeals court?

I know this has probably been addressed elsewhere sorry I didn't notice it.

In the US Revolutionary War, which side would the current GOP have been on?

Along those lines, what sort of Constitution would the current GOP have written? Oh, we can just look at what they're advocating now.

US Supreme Court declares US Constitution unconstitutional

Justices rule that nowhere in the Constitution does it explicitly say that the Constitution is constitutional


Also, they handed down a decision that democracy is socialism and therefore illegal.

And that 6 is 9.

They want a Good Ol' Boys world

MAGAts don't want to see any women, any people of color, any non-straight or non-Christian people on their TVs, as their bosses, as their doctors, judges, teachers, etc - they don't want to see them in any positions of power and certainly not in any positions of power over them. Only straight white men anywhere. All others to be confined to services and low wage labors.

It's racism, sexism and the whole basic EuroChristoFascist package. It's been the same routine since the first European nutjobs (Puritans) first infected this continent.

It's not that the MAGAts are confused about their own self-interests, it's that they are under the delusion that there are such things as races, that there are such things as "white" people (P.S. we all have mixed DNA), and the blatantly false delusion that "white" people are superior in any way.
