What does the future hold for Donald Trump? - threadbans in OP

Just like the outlier priests who abused children, the outlier nuns who ran Magdalene Laundries, the outlier Bishops and Archbishops who helped cover it all up?

Maybe, just maybe, being "Christian" doesn't mean people won't do or allow things which go against their own religion. Being "Christian" does not mean such politicians and judges won't vote for things which cause harm to people. Being "Christian", really means jack sh*t when it comes to American politics.

Not only that, but just because a large section of the American people are Conservative Christians, doesn't mean their elected politicians won't do things or vote for things which will cause harm to people. Look at the medical bills Americans have to pay, and ask yourself just how "Christian" the politicians who allow and facilitate that are.

Nobody is saying America will become like Uganda, but people are right to point out how religious fundamentalism will ravage people's rights, legal protections, safety and well-being.

Pretty much nail on the head there. Getting GOP voters to focus on these loud and populist talking points instead of anything that can be done to actually improve their lives. Things like European-style single-payer health-care are thus successfully rebranded as "Commie Marxist Plots to steal your Freedom!" despite being exactly the thing a typical GOP / MAGA voter might actually need when they come from poorer backgrounds.

It usually just boils to down to the idea that arguing against trans rights under the guise of "Trans women are a threat to women and girls" is an easier argument to make. Arguing that trans women shouldn't use women's toilets and should instead use the toilets of the sex they were born as (to ensure men don't just dress up as women to attack women or girls in toilets), despite the fact the same logic would dictate trans men should use women's toilets, and therefore people who look like men should be going into the women's toilets, and negating the need for men who want to attack women to dress up like women in the first place. Also ignoring the point that men who wish to do such things tend not to disguise themselves in case people see them, but do it when nobody is around to see them in the first place.

It's pure nonsense, but it's an easier sell to make people think they should oppose trans rights in order to protect women and children than actually having to discuss or think about the issue in any depth, detail or logic.

News of Democratic donors supporting Haley in order to thwart TFG and keep the GQP in disarray. No different than what's gone on in some of the Congressional primaries with Democrats donating to extreme wingnut MAGA in order to get them nominated, then win in the general (hopefully anyway.)
