There are millions of protestants who are pure hellish demons that are not Christians. These people HATE people so they are NOT Christians.

...if Trump is elected in 2020, how does he plan to govern the nation?

Will he escalate this war on brown people that want to come to this country (from cages to what)?

Will he decide that women of color can no longer serve in Congress?

Since he almost decided to ignore the Supreme Court’s authority - will he cross that bridge and decide that the Supreme Court doesn’t matter or is he confident that the SCOTUS will do his bidding (right or wrong)?

Since he has decided that Congress has no oversight (with Mitch’s approval) - what purpose does Congress serve with a future Trump POTUS?

Will we leave NATO and join the Soviet Bloc?

And will the rich have to pay taxes in the future (why not eliminate Social Security and Medicare)?
