Trump to priests. I'll knock that Johnson from your mouths.

That's right. He is promising to repeal the Johnson Amendment that prevents churches and non profits from actively engaging in politics. Not that all those groups haven't broken it or walked a very thin line at the edges of it for years anyway...

I look forward to Muslims taking advantage of it.

Or a Super PAC that is a religious organization.

I'd seen that earlier and had amended it to another thread, but it seems troubling to me.

Hanging a big carrot out to the Evangelical voters he probably can not deliver on to begin with.

Considering his past history, is surprising they would take him seriously to begin with, but what else is new these days.

Evangelicals are accustomed to voting for candidates who can't deliver.

Jerry Falwell Jr luvs him some Trump. He says whatever he wants because he's head of a Fundie university, not a congregation.

If you put enough money in the plate you can have God on your side, even if you're on your third trophy wife, make a living from peddling booze, gambling & shady real estate ventures while pandering to fear & bigotry.

This is true of course.

One of my Aunts in the 80's was a high end buyer for a pretty major supermarket chain in the Midwest. She liked to tell the story of how the owner of the chain would rescind ownership the day they would have to renew their liquor license, like he wasn't responsible for endorsing that.

Then the next day he would be back in charge of things again selling it, like he was absolved from the fact they sold it in the stores.

Some of the biggest hypocrites you will ever meet. I won't drone on about other incidents in the past.
