That’s right, the Republican Party no longer exists. Real Republicans denounce immorality. They also once believed in the rule of law and that all Americans should obey local, state, and federal regulations. Who are they today?

They are students of their illegitimate leader, Donald John Trump. They are opportunistic capitalists. Morality has been abandoned. They have accepted a man without morals, who is a self-admitted sexual predator; who has been accused by more than 20 women of sexual assault as the leader of the new “Trump Party.”

The entire impeachment process has proven that these Republicans in name only reject the Constitution; primarily the first amendment. They decided to acquit Trump, who has been proven guilty in the House after a preponderance of evidence and testimony was presented, before the trial began. Laws mean nothing to these hypocrites. Just yesterday all 100 senators swore to participate in a “fair and impartial trial.” 53 of them lied and should be punished.

Jerry Falwell Jr., who is under investigation for possible criminal actions of his own, is suggesting an outbreak of ‘civil disobedience’ in Virginia.

The Democratic majority in Virginia is planning to pass new gun laws including banning military assault rifles, ‘red flag laws,’ which would prevent individuals considered a threat to others from purchasing weapons of mass destruction, and a limit on the number of handguns each individual can purchase in a single month.

“I will not be surprised at all if the citizens and police in a good part of Virginia just decided not to enforce whatever this governor and legislature passes,” remarked Falwell.

Is Falwell as ignorant as the orange moron in the White House he supports. There is a legal process, and this is the basic intention of Virginia’s lawmakers. State laws can be challenged in federal courts which could reach the Supreme Court, which is their primary intention.

If we are not a nation of laws, we are nothing.

Finally, Falwell is not a Christian. His support of Trump is proof that his claim to be a “man of God” is a lie. Trump is amoral, a racist, a bigot, and has only one god; money. I’m not claiming that Trump is an atheist; I’m stating the fact that he is a capitalist first and last. This is his only belief. Trump’s own words and actions prove that he believes that he is his own god.
