Tom DeLay says God made Trump president so religious right could shape America

[DonViejo]

Former Republican House Majority Leader Tom DeLay appeared on WorldNetDaily to promote his new book, Revival! Revolution! Rebirth!, where he proclaimed that God has delivered a “clean slate” of a man in Donald Trump that will allow the religious right to enact the laws they wish to use to reshape America.

Clean slate sounds awfully similar to empty suit, doesn’t it?

“Now that Trump is elected, I’m very excited about it because I see now what God is doing,” he said. “First of all, He stopped the left in its tracks and He stopped Hillary Clinton, and put a man in place that was a strong leader, which the country was begging for, and it didn’t matter what his policies were. People wanted a huge change in the direction of the federal government.”

“I think I see what God’s intentions were. Here’s a man that basically is a clean slate and we, being Christian constitutionalist conservatives, have an opportunity to fill in that slate,” DeLay continued, commending his cabinet choices so far.

“We, being strong Christians conservatives, are going to have an opportunity to really turn this country around in a bold way,” he concluded.

1. Why isn't that asshat in jail?

2. I wish this roach would go crawl back

under a rug and stay there.

[Initech]

3. We don't want the religious right shaping America! They ruin everything they touch!

And Donald Trump is the *LEAST* godly man we've ever elected. He'll tell you he's the most religious guy - he reads the best verses from Two Corinthians!

[treestar]

4. He is really kidding himself

unless God intends for impeachment for the Orange One and for Pence to take the POTUS slot.

Still, the presidency is limited in powers. It is not godlike. The President cannot remake the US alone. The majority voted for Hillary. The majority are not fundamentalist wing nuts, and no President can make then into that.

5. And God made Tom Delay as an example to the rest of us what bullshit sounds like

[Thinkingabout]

6. Why sure Tom DeLay loves Trump, they are both crooks, they understand each other and perhaps

can be sent to the same prison.

[hunter]

7. I've heard this from other Christian Fundamentalists.

It's how they explain why they voted for a guy who is very clearly not one of their own.

8. Apparently, God has clay feet and little hands. nt

9. "Clean slate"

Are probably the least apt words to describe DT.

[Achilleaze]

10. The godawful Republicans will pound this evil idea upside America's head until

...we all come to recognize who they really are, and it sure ain't Christlike, no matter how much BS they spout about it.

11. All the grifters are coming out of the woodwork.

[Paladin]

12. As if anybody pays attention to Tom DeLay anymore.

Go fuck your latest mistress, Tom, and leave the grownups alone.

[Vinca]

13. Will there be an 11th commandment regarding the grabbing of lady parts??

Or will that be a ritual in the new "religious" America? By the way, does Delay know the "clean slate" of a man called fighting venereal diseases his own, personal Vietnam?

[rusty fender]

14. So God didn't want him to win the popular vote?

Only the Electoral College? Dumbass God, take a civics course!

[Solly Mack]

15. Many of his cabinet picks think the same way.

Bannon sees America as a Christian nation and wants it to be more so.

I'm not laughing.
