My Trump lover sister is already irritated at President Biden. "He didn't mention God"

I had to remind her that President Biden mentioned GOD several times and he's a Christian. Unlike her EVIL Anti-Christ Trump.

My family = Dumb people.

Though it does make me squirmy.

But yeah, OP's sister must have had the TV on mute during the speech. Like I did, when Turd gave his Fuck You, America speech.

Trump talked about AMERICAN CARNAGE in his Inauguration speech. Like his supporters carnage in desecrating our US Capitol & killing 5 people. https://www.theguardian.com/.../donald-trump-reality-tv... If God placed Trump in office, and Pres Obama and God put Biden there, too.

That’s what he said, in addition to this, which is perhaps a more important religious message, accessible to all:

Many centuries ago, St. Augustine, a saint in my church, wrote that a people was a multitude defined by the common objects of their love. Defined by the common objects of their love. What are the common objects we as Americans love, that define us as Americans? I think we know. Opportunity, security, liberty, dignity, respect, honor and, yes, the truth.

So in her eyes, and the eyes of millions of MAGAts he didn't mention God.

But in his speech President Biden invoked God multiple times.

From now, on this hallowed ground, where just a few days ago, violence sought to shake the Capitol's very foundation, we come together as one nation, under God, indivisible to carry out the peaceful transfer of power, as we have for more than two centuries.

My fellow Americans, I close the day where I began, with a sacred oath before God and all of you. I give you my word, I will always level with you. I will defend the Constitution.

May God bless America and may God protect our troops. Thank you, America.

I've learned to not let it bother me that much.

I do have confidence that Pres Biden will govern on laws and principles, not "Biblical" prophecies and fake morality.
