unless you're poor, middle class, black, Hispanic, gay, trans, a woman, an immigrant, ever buy food, ever need medical care, ever travel internationally, Islamic, disagree with him even once ever, speak Spanish, work in construction, work in landscaping, ever sit or stand at a bus stop, or care about democracy or the rule of law, etc.

Frankly if your religion causes you to see a convicted criminal and obvious tyrant as a great leader, you're doing religion wrong.

Funny how his swearing is apparently the only sin they can find.
