    Whenever GOP “Christians” want to use the bible to justify up their hateful ideology, they always use the books in the Old Testament, like Leviticus to hate gays. Very rarely (if ever) do they use the actual teachings and words of Jesus Christ as they are found in the four Gospels. Pay attention whenever you hear Mike Johnson or some other numbskull talk about the bible, what books are they referencing, if it ain’t the New Testament, it ain’t Christian.

    To me, a Christian is someone who follows Jesus’s actual teachings, which this guy in Texas obviously does.

    The media focuses so terribly hard on his Christian rhetoric, yet somehow completely ignores the whole anti-billionaire part of his rhetoric. Cuz I’ve been seeing commercials for him a lot recently and every single one of them talks about economic issues. Just kind of interesting.

    I wish there was something that would make Republicans panic, but as their continued behavior indicates, they can’t be shamed, and they have all the law and all the money, so why would they?
