You can follow Christ or you can follow trump but you can't do both. They are exact opposites. Christian Nationalism is a sin. #ResistFascism

"Remove him from office"

Wow. That's brilliant. Really. Great political strategy.

Uh... just one minor detail...

HOW!?

A Christian Resistance @xianresistance.bsky.social · 5h

1. It's illegal to arrest a sitting president.

2. Let's pretend for a second that it's possible: the President is head of the executive branch, so who exactly do you imagine would be responsible for arresting him? 🤔

A Christian Resistance @xianresistance.bsky.social · 6h

Great idea. Why didn't anyone else think of that? 🙄

Just one question: HOW!?

A Christian Resistance @xianresistance.bsky.social · 6h

It's easy to be angry.

It's not easy to remove a sitting President from power.

77 million voters are in his cult & 90 million voters were too damn apathetic to vote.

The majority of Americans don't care about democracy.

I'm just as angry as you but this "DO SOMETHING" mentality is insufferable.

A Christian Resistance @xianresistance.bsky.social · 6h

Because there's no way for any decent person to do anything.

His cult has taken over every government institution.

Which means there's no legal mechanism left to remove him from office.

All of this was 100% predictable btw.

Our one chance to stop him was last November.

We failed.

Absolutely.

I went to an Evangelical college back in the mid-90's & "stumbling block" was a common phrase regarding women's clothing.

I don't understand. If he really believes her outfit was so inappropriate, then why wouldn't he say that with his family there? He didn't want to defend their virtues? Morality Police are very confusing. 🤔

trump pardons turkeys all the time.

Scene from The Simpsons episode "Homerpalooza" in which Homer is talking about 1970's slang to the kids in his carpool & says: "A turkey is a bad person."

I said from the beginning, this guy is not a real Democrat, he's a chaos agent. Anyone can run as a Democrat in a primary (I don't like it but I don't make the rules). He started his political career by trash-talking the Party & I can't find any evidence of him being active/registered before August.

We should have never thought anyone was coming to save us - we were always going to have to do that ourselves.

Right now we should be organizing for the midterms. All of 2026, we need to be focused on get out the vote campaigns and what to do if the administration tries to block voting access. 1/2

Scene from The Simpsons episode "Radioactive Man", in which Moe is talking to Homer, Barney, & the other two barflies who don't really talk or have well known names. After having a flashback where Moe was one of the Li'l Rascals & killed the original Alfalfa, he says says: "Luckily, Alfalfa was an orphan owned by the studio."

A Christian Resistance @xianresistance.bsky.social · 1d

Did I say that? No.

But if saving democracy wasn't enough to motivate them, then nothing is.

I didn't say accept dictatorship. I just pointed out that the majority of Americans either wanted it or didn't card enough to stop it.

I also said I love your optimism.

You think people who didn't care about a Presidential election are going to show up to the midterms?

I love your optimism but, damn.

2024 was the easiest choice we ever had & we still pissed it down our legs.

90 million people stayed home because they didn't want to have a democracy anymore.
