Given the bottom quartile intelligence of the MAGA crowd, Trump's efforts in selling a bastardized version of....
.....the Bible to his people might have better success if he dumbed it down into a picture book, or a graphic novel of Biblical Stories and American myths. Or, another thought, just a collection of "Republican Jesus" cartoon with some of the big words removed. Here's some examples:

A while ago, I was uncomfortable with the "Trump stinks", personal hygiene meme, thinking it was juvenile. But.....
.......as the evidence mounted, I got on board and loved it. Now even The Lincoln Project is going there.
Just read an interesting article about a natural, self-sustaining nuclear reaction that occured here on Earth...........
........1.7 billion years ago. The article describes a site in Africa where naturally occurring Uranium, water, oxygen and algae came together in the right geological formation to start a nuclear reaction that switched on and off for 150,000 years. The author then goes on to use this historical fact to bolster his support for nuclear power today as a safer alternative to fossil fuels. Anyone here familiar with our DU friend "NNadir" will probably find this last bit also rather familiar, as he also advocates for nuclear power plants as safe and sane alternatives to our planet killing ways.

I'm waiting to see the Charlottesville cohort wearing big, gold sneakers with their usual ensembe of Khakis and.....
......Polo shirts. Tres chic.
Just opened a small can of "Diced Green Chilies" and noticed that it said "Prov 3:6" on the label, in very.....
......small print. Looked up the Bible verse in Proverbs and found this:
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not rely on your own insight.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.

Could have posted this in "Cooking" or "Christianity", so kind of unusual that way too.
So, what is "big" money today in Presidential Politics? When Nixon ran for re-election in 1972, The "Committee to.....
......Re-elect the President (CREEP) amassed a "huge" war chest of $50,000,000, far more than any previous candidate. The numbers we see today seem to dwarf that kind of dough. But consider this. An equivalent amount in 2024 dollars would be $361,066,910, not chump change for sure, but wasn't the last election billed as a "Billion Dollar Election" between spending on both sided?
Have you given any thought to what a shit show Trump could turn the. 2024 Republican....
......Convention into? Can you imagine his nomination acceptance speech, complete with Seig Heil Nazi salutes? Fist fights on the convention floor? Proud boys in the streets, egged on by Roger Stone, just out to have a good time in their new brown shirts.
Got to love NASA. Watch the video they chose to use when testing laser transmission of data to and from a......
.....spacecraft 19 million miles from Earth.
