10. And its something many Christians will never understand

Many Christians believe church membership is license to be an asshole. How will they be remembered after they’re gone? To his relatives, who seek to find the good in him, he was a good father and a good provider. To everyone else, he was an asshole.

Trump’s worst problem is there’s never really been anyone like him. He’s not a Hitler, Mussolini, Pol Pot or Idi Amin, dictators who intentionally killed millions. And he’s not Herbert Hoover, a decent-enough fellow who was in over his head. The only reason Donald Trump is where he is, is his father left him a lot of money. This is a guy whose natural endstate is to be a carnival barker. He is too stupid to do this job. Witness his economic plans: cut taxes harder than Reagan did, while spending faster than Reagan did. (And Reagan didn’t have to recover from three huge hurricanes in his first year either.) The logical and decent thing to do in regard to taxes is to simply get all dolled up like he does and tell the television audience, “We have to keep taxes where they are this year, because we don’t know what it will cost to get America back on her feet yet.” Trump throws paper towels (btw, when is the Bounty Logo avatar arriving?) and gripes about the cost.
