    That is bizarre. And now the 'Trump is Hitler' insanity is augmented by the 'Trump is Saddam' insanity.

    So the Holocaust was the central event in world history? As if no one else suffered at the hands of anyone but Christians?

    I'm just saying that modern democracy really came about by White Nationalist Christians.

    Everyone else just lived under the thumb of kings, emperors or other savage tribal leaders.

    Please give credit where credit is due.

    nobody wants you "underground". you just aren't permitted to make laws based on your superstitions, or force other people to live by your religious tenants.

    Is bizarre your word for the week or what.?

    HOW is what I say bizarre? How is it very strange or unusual, how does that cause interest or amusement. How is it strange or peculiar

    How about a bunch of jerkwads electing a ****** dirty old man child predator pervert to the most powerful legislative body on Earth because he MIGHT give the wealthiest among them a bit less taxes....I guess that's bizarre, though I think despicable, low and utterly abhorrent come to mind first

    When hate groups pride themselves in being white Christians and say they want the country to be white and Christian anyone with a brain can conclude their ethnicity Do you think these white supremacist groups aren’t Christians? The star the grand Wizard wears is not a Jewish star

    Black nationalist hate groups are just as bad but they don’t compare to the numbers of white supremacists and white people still rule

    My source is the southern poverty law center who tracks hate groups...I find it kind of sad that you need a source. This is why Trump loves those who don’t educate themselves

    using huffpo as a source immediately downsizes your credibility, but that's not the point, lets talk substance. The Christian right is a far less dangerous threat then the progressive left. I have yet to see a Christian riot this year, where property is damaged and people are beaten up. The only event that comes close would be the Charlottesville protests. But, the progressive left was also involved in that as well.

    I expect you to defend your argument. You apparently cannot.

    You made up an argument and attributed it to me. I have no obligation to address your straw man. Address what I actually said, or **** off.

    Firstly, I'd love to know what a "junata" is. The Trump administration is not a "junta."

    Definition of junta
    1: a council or committee for political or governmental purposes; especially : a group of persons controlling a government especially after a revolutionary seizure of power.

    Secondly, I'm wondering why you think partisan opinion editorial blather from the Huff Post is a legitimate source of factual information. If you want bias, you'll get bias. That's what the HP offers. That's not remotely objective, professional journalism. You posted an opinion editorial from a section called "Queer Voices."

    OK so you posted an opinion piece from a guy that hates Trump like you.

    And?
