Fuck their religious convictions. Fuck your religious convictions. It's not like any religious convictions you might have get in the way of your support of a degenerate lying kidnapper, and his co-conspirators in the United States Congress.

Oh...and regarding anybody's temptation to feel sorry for the Catholic Church about much of anything...

CULPABLE

You're referring to a law passed 450 years ago in England as a outgrowth of Henry VIII wanting an annulment in order to marry his mistress somehow analogous to a Bible-thumping homophobic baker in Colorado? Where do you come up with such shit?

I really think that the owner of the restaurant should sue Trump for defamation for injecting himself and the power of his bully pulpit into what is a private matter. SHS was dining and/or hoping to dine in that restaurant as a private citizen, not as an envoy of Trump.

Trump’s Roach-Infested Restaurants Are Vile Compared to the Red Hen

Anyone surprised? His vile attacks on the Red Hen are just more lies from the twitler in chief.

Der Trumpenfuher's brownshirts know health inspectors are Deep State operatives.

Apparently the Trump's Mar-a-Lago has the record for most health inspection infractions in Florida state history.

Donny will just have to boost the $200K membership fees again, so he can afford to hire more immigrants to clean up.

One would think the with a constant barrage of daily advances towards a dictatorship in this country. The Left and the Democrats will have little trouble getting out the vote this fall. Even so the nagging fear is still there just under the surface. More is needed to contradict their message. For the Right seems to be driving the narrative.
The Left is always doing catch up.
So by playing the game more like the Right may be in their in their best interests. By getting raw meat issues to energize the base is something worth trying. Lower the message to be less cerebral, dumb it down. Quit figuring the electorate is smart enough to have figured it out already.
So more plays like the one from Maxine Waters thou less then ideal may be just what is needed.
