Definition of "Republicanity"

Republicanity: the calculated melding of the American political right with poorly constructed, spiritually empty Christian theology so that the blind adherent loses track of where one ends and the other begins, thereby (1) fallaciously allowing Republicanism to claim the moral high ground above the Democratic party in all things political and (2) socially demonizing Democratic party members in the process

Under the Subject of "If I Say/Type It Enough Times, Then It's Got To Be True"


There is not a single statement in this tweet that is even remotely related to Truth.  Not one.


Here are a few more whoppers (i.e., "alternative facts") that Mr. Fournier and his willfully ignorant ilk probably believe also:

  • There was no obstruction.  Trump was completely exonerated by the Mueller Report.
  • There were ISIS terrorists in the migrant caravans.
  • The wall is being built.  Mexico is paying for it.
  • It was Obama who instituted the "Zero-Tolerance" border policy.
  • Hurricane Dorian was definitely projected to hit Alabama.  No Sharpies were involved.
  • Climate change is a huge hoax.
  • Michael Cohen sent the hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels of his own volition.
  • There was no quid pro quo. 
  • Any negative portrayal of Trump is Fake News.  And FoxNews is "fair and balanced."

These blatant-to-anyone-who-has-half-a-brain lies that are continuing to vomit forth from all of the shameless Trump sycophants are destroying any semblance of credibility for the Republican party.  Moreover, for that Republican party to continue to claim Christianity as its sword and shield against the perceived (and false) injustices of a society that is finally pushing back is thoroughly reprehensible.  Finally, and most importantly, for the Christian community to allow the Republican party to do so unobstructedly while passively looking on is, pure and simple, blasphemy to the spirit of their Christ.

And, ultimately, Christianity itself will pay for its hypocrisy.
