Anti-Semitism is the Most Unchristian Act

As we discover that the Pittsburgh synagogue killings were the worst in American history, it is time to look at the vicious racist tone of our President and his fellow Republicans. There are times when our country has been more at peace with a leader who respected his fellow Americans, no matter their color or religion. Many of our presidents have been real Christians who’ve understood that Jesus was about love and compassion. When we get political outliers (Woodrow Wilson hated blacks with a ferocity that was really over the top) or Donald Trump who uses hatred as a political philosophy, only terrible trouble follows. I pray that all my Jewish friends will survive Trump’s presidency. It is very scary to see how a country can change in ways you never wanted or expected.

Trump is the Antichrist

Trump once made a comment about Norman Vincent Peale and it seems he had attended Marble Collegiate Church in New York. Before Dr. Peale had moved to New York, he was the pastor of Syracuse’s University Methodist Church and my grandfather, Rich Dean Whitney, was his lay leader. After my father died when I was six, every week Dr. Peale would send us copies of his sermons. My mother would put them in the bathroom where I had the choice of reading them or the ingredient label on Old Dutch Cleanser. Given the years I spent with Dr. Peale I learned a lot about his views. I don’t remember reading that hating Blacks was good for getting into heaven. The White Pentecostals hate Blacks and follow Trump. Throughout history there have appeared Antichrists who’ve hidden their tail and three forked staff under their clothing. The White Pentecostals have given Trump free rein on morals and he has used this. It’s very scary that this man is forgiven by these haters. He’ll get rid of abortion and they’ll approve of anything he does. Our problem is this lying slimeball was made our President because he leads them in their hatred. I find it interesting that the Editor of the Christian Century (who created th word “Pentecostal”) informed them they no longer deserved this appellation after they came out for Trump. I have some news to break to these people: Jesus, my strength and my redeemer is about love, not hatred.

The Death of Jamal Kashoggi

For decades America has done special favors for a country mired in the 8th Century. In the wake of 9/11 the US put the Bin Laden family on a special jet to get them out of the US. Over and over the American government has kissed the robes of the Saudi Arabian arisstocracy. Now it seems 15 saudis went into the Saudi embassy in Turkey where they killed and then dismembered Jamal Kashoggi, a reporter for the Washington Post. Today America can produce all the gasoline it needs, there’s no reason to fear Saudi Arabia cutting off its oil, we can frack our way to energy independence. The Turks know what went on. Get them to tell us. Take away Trump’s son in laws’ travel vouchers. We can relate to countries that live in our century,  Not counties that get away with draconian laws from th 8th century

Hey Yellowhair, the Fed is Independent

Almost all presidents have realized the Federal Reserve was created as an independent body. They never would have spoken out against the bank. Trump, however, has described the bank as “Out of Control.” The market is falling like a rock because Trump threw tariffs on everyone so he could look good when the country came to an agreement with them. He has disrupted free trade and a lot of folks are scared things are going to end badly. I used to go to China and had wonderful, heartwarming experiences. Chinese tell me now is not a good time when we have such a dangerous president. A couple of months ago, I moved all my money(that was not in bonds) into prime money markets paying interest of 2.16. Sounds unimpressive right now, unless you look at the DOW or NASDAQ. The dope with yellow hair is looking for a scapegoat. Try acting like a President for a change.

Trump:The Man In The High Tower

While Amazon runs The Man In The High Tower with its glorification of Nazis and Shabu Shabu, we have Trump acknowledging to the UN who his hero’s are. He gets along really well with Kim Jung UN and Putin the Poisoner. Maybe he’s hoping he’ll get to run part of the Ukraine after Vladamir the Impaler gets done with acquiring it. It seems Trump gets upset when he can’t run a country any way he likes. Think of all the Kavanaughs who’ve been trained by right wing enthusiasts to be Trump’s enforcers. “Can you hurry up and tap that keg, Judgie?”
