Tremendous sermon given by a preacher with tremendous courage. She knew she was going to get MAGA fury, but she uplifted Jesus anyway. She spoke morally, and that always has political implications.
It was actually mild. She urged the President to show compassion for the powerless. A great man who was a Christian would have taken it well. Since Trump is neither, he didn't. Instead, he made a vile, petty, nonChristian post. Because that's who he is. He worships the rich and powerful, the Musks, etc. None of them are in the neighborhood of Christ.
I wish some of his groveling evangelical megachurch "pastors" had introduced him to Jesus. But they would have had to have known him themselves to do so.
She's a libtard and you know it. I agree with Trump's post. She did fail to mention the murders that have taken place by illegals. Cases like the Laken Riley case. Here is Trump's post....
Nice try to change the subject.
She didn't mention the murders, but she did mention that the vast majority of immigrants aren't criminals. They're good people who work hard, pay their taxes, and build good communities. Many of them are scared right now. Even those who are here legally. Even those who are here who are Christians fleeing persecution. By supporting cruelty to refugees, you're supporting cruelty to many of your brothers and sisters in Christ.
All she asked for in a gentle way was compassion for those who are afraid right now.
A great man would have simply moved on and posted nothing. Let others defend him. But Trump is nowhere near a great man. He's a petty poisonous malicious narcissist. If Jesus spoke to him, he would curse Jesus to his face.
If you agree with the crass classless cruelty of Trump's post, then I think you need to give the Sermon on the Mount a good read.
In fact, read the Sermon on the Mount, watch the video of her message, and read Trump's dreadful post and consider which reflects Jesus.
