She isn't Sarah Huckabee-ess for nothing.

The use of religion in governance/politics is exceedingly rational. However the religious argument need not be logical; it only needs a veneer of logic.

Indeed. But then all serious parties wittingly or unwittingly yield to or promote religious trappings.

Sanders has now decided that it is time to explicitly wrap her leader in religious garment. I guess she understands that a serious argument against any system/movement is that it is godless.

God wouldn't be caught within 50,000 light years of Cadet Spanky McBonespurs.

What is McBonespurs most egregious act?

Is he a King Leopold 11, a Pol Pot, a Stalin, a Hitler?
The nominal inference here is that he is a draft dodger.

So far: Basically a showman with an isolationist view.

Trump's victory is God's punishment for our amorality.

Beating Hillary.

The popular choice here and elsewhere would be Hitler. Mussolini works for me.

He's also a rude crude dude and a fairly astute politician based on the midterms.

Sarah Goebbels Sanders is a genius of playing on the mental piano of primitive people - the voters who enable eight years of Trump presidency...

Sieg Heil!
