I am so pissed off right now. Listening to Trump you would think that we are a nation of nothing but Christians. Churches should NOT be allowed to give political opinions. If they do, they should lose their tax exempt status. Period!

Now...this asshole is signing orders that will allow churches to express their political beliefs. What the hell has happened to our country?!!!

I don't recognize my country anymore!

Why don't we just go ahead and get it over with and become a Theocracy?

-P


ON EDIT: No one in this country is limiting churches....you just can't express political preferences.

ON EDIT 2: This issue is a pet peeve of mine. We are moving away from the benefits of reason and fair play. I am nauseous.

ON EDIT 3: Where are the Dems?!!! Who is there to at least express outrage on what this President is doing to our country?

ON EDIT 4: The only people I see actively fighting this insanity is Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren...I know that there are others...but they stand out.

1. I had to mute him...

from your comments, he said pretty much what I expected.

Yes, there are forces in this country that want it to be a theocracy.

4. Their donations will go down

Not everyone is a Republican and I for one would walk out of a church that even suggested I vote for a damn Republican

9. My husband and I left the church in

2012 for this very reason. The priest tried to encourage the congregation to vote for Romney and not Obama. We walked out of the church and when I came home I wrote a letter to the priest and told him why we were leaving the church. I also told him that if he wants to talk politics during Mass, give up his tax exempt status. Have never gone back.

5. Someone needs to check him out

3. Too many white people up there...

And everywhere there... Surprised he didn't kiss the nuns...

GOD! (Pun intentended) I hate him and his whole group of shits so much!!

6. I just watched it for about 20 seconds...

the moment he said 'Martin', I clicked mute.

This is just crazy... it makes me sick to my stomach.

10. When trump came on

on MSNBC, I shut the TV off. Such hypocrisy!

7. I am on Pandora listening to nice Irish music.

I can not even look at the dripping piece of shit much less hear him. We are losing our freedom of religion. They started with Muslims now they are going to go after all of the other religions. Oh, I might note that it will be the extreme far right who will get all of the rights. Not just other religions are in danger but different sects of Christianity. Lutherans, Episcopalians, Catholics, Methodists, and any other sects who are liberal or moderate in their faith. This going to be a religious blood bath.

12. That sounds like a good idea. I'll join you. I just took a difficult final and need to destress.

13. Nothing like hearing "Drunken Sailor, or "Green Fields Of France"

It definitely cheers you up. I do not drink but when I am listening to Irish music for some odd reason I want to drink.

8. The country is on a dark path.

The dems are acting like it's business as usual on this Russian investigation. They need to start breaking a few rules & air this mess out in public or our government is going to look very different in four years. The dems always play by the rules while the repubs do whatever the fuck they want & now they have their boot on our neck & Trump is taking a sledge hammer to our government. But hey, when they go low, we go high.

14. Just tell right wingers

That includes mosques, too.

How many colors will you be able to count in their faces?

15. The ACLU isn't going to take action because this EO has no teeth:

They will sue if he actually does try to change the laws so don't lose hope yet.
