All the President's Henchmen

They're showing up at his trial, taking potshots at the proceedings and channeling Trump since he can't channel himself anymore, under threat of jail. The corruption is complete. The degradation fully realized. Who are these people? And where is their humanity?

Their humanity is gone. They sold it. And it's not about the Republican Party and politics. Not really. It's about evangelicals, race, and selling your soul for power. The old Republican Party made a deal. Votes for the promise or hope of renewal. But an inverted renewal.

The South would rise again. The transformation is the inversion of the one offered by Christianity, in which you are saved. This transformation is debasement. Giving in to the lowest and worst impulses, ending in compulsion. Compulsion but certainty. 

Certainty is what they got. Feelings of certainty. Because they couldn't handle freedom. Not the Calvinist kind, where everything is determined and life is meaningless. So it's not about the Republican Party it's about fundamentalists and evangelical Christians.

Never have people been given so much, been so fortunate, and shit on it like this. They want to see the world end because they hate it. If Trump is transactional so are they. You go to a revival or church, and have a programmatic and choreographed experience.

You say the magic words and you are saved. I accept Jesus as my personal lord and savior. Or some such bullshit. No more worries. You are off the hook. How you behave doesn't matter anymore. You are not only saved you are irreversibly saved. By Satan. 

Christ doesn't want slaves. Or slavery, for that matter, without which no evangelicalism. So look at this parade of shit at Trump's trial, Vance and Johnson and the rest. Absolute automatons. No freedom. No humanity. And a huge appetite for destruction.
