Trump and the Evangelicals are now One and the Same– Literally. To the Evangelicals America’s Gays, Blacks, Hispanics and Women are a “Strong-Willed” Child in Need of Breaking and if Need be– Killing

(Photo queerty.com/YouTube) An old friend of mine Gary Bauer — we worked together on the “pro-life” circuit before I fled the religious right — president of American Values — endorsed Trump in his address to the Values Voters Summit in Washington: This country is the equivalent of that hijacked plane right now. We’re headed to a disaster, unless we can get control of the cockpit again…. Ladies and gentlemen, this is a Flight 93 election. This may be our last... Read more

HERE’S WHY THE AMERICAN “PATRIOTIC” EVANGELICAL RELIGIOUS RIGHT NOW SUPPORTS THE MURDERER/FASCIST AMERICA-HATING THUG PUTIN

Last updated on: September 13, 2016 at 5:27 am By Frank Schaeffer

(Photos YouTube) In the 1970s and 1980s when my dad (Francis Schaeffer) and I helped start the religious right and all out culture war you could have said one thing about “our” people: we prided ourselves on being God-n’-country types. Not any more. Today’s evangelicals are voting for a traitor in bed with an anti-American fascist thug aiming nukes at your town. How things changed! So what happened to make American evangelical “patriots” fall in love with a murdering hate-filled... Read more

You ask “How can Trump have gotten this far?” I Have the Answer: TRUMP is Proof Neil Postman Was Right– Entertainment Fascism is Now Upon Us

Last updated on: September 10, 2016 at 1:16 pm By Frank Schaeffer

(Photo Wikipedia) With Donald Trump’s seemingly suicidal weaknesses as a presidential candidate, some people are shocked by how close the race is. How can this be happening? Here’s the answer: America is hooked on fascistic spectacle as a means of brain orgasm. In this context Trump is not so much a candidate but a porn star. And Hillary is having trouble competing. We are an entertainment-corrupted nation and we’ve changed our brains to crave the next fix. This isn’t something... Read more
