The #TrumpTapes should be thought of as a final blinking red light on the road leading up to the cliff as a lot of Republicans race along it, preparing to openly defy the US Constitution and have history further document their allegiance to this con man.
What ELSE has he said?
Yes, Brad Raffensperger taped his threatening conversation. But you don't have to be that sophisticated or have that high a position to do this.
Omarosa taped him.
Michael Cohen taped him.
Access Hollywood had his conversation recorded on a hot mic.
Melania's friend taped her.
Trump's niece taped her aunt.
We are going to hear Trump and those around him say some more very bad things one day.
What happens if we hear his true thoughts about ... I don't know, Evangelical Christians?
His true thoughts about abortion?
His thoughts on race?
His opinions of his rotating band of yes men and women?
We already heard this year a tape by Bob Woodward revealing that Trump knew about how deadly the COVID virus was - and that he lied to the public about it.
The odds are that somebody else who he's talked to on the phone, or even in person, has taped him.
Do people who are gravitating to him because he, for the next three weeks, is the most powerful man in the world really want to be near him when the big one drops? And when more things come out that will make not only him look more awful but will be bad for his hangers-on?
I've gone into detail about the political losses Trump has experienced since he took office.
Since his minions are claiming he didn't actually lose, let's look at the GOP losses since Trump took office in the states which Biden flipped. It'll be fun.

When I think of the fact that, for example, in LA, they may have to start refusing to bring people who might not survive COVID to the hospitals because they’re too full - but at the same time, maskless protesters are holding mass events in shopping malls, I think about this.
As well as the indifference that we have to human life, which, despite what many “Christian Conservatives” like to think, isn’t as different from the secular, unsaved world as we like to pride ourselves on.
A lot of people who don’t call themselves pro-life don’t care that human babies are being aborted because they say they’re “just a bunch of cells” (not true).
But a lot who do consider themselves pro-life don’t care that humans are dying of COVID because “they’re old anyway.”
A lot of Christians have had our faith challenged by the behavior of many in the Church in the era of Trump. And I’m not talking about how people voted. I’m talking about being okay with all of his behaviors and actions. Then defending it. Then celebrating it.
God’s Word does not tell us who to vote for. It doesn’t even address secular concepts like political ideology. But it tells us a lot about what to expect as we how mankind will behave as we get closer to the end of the age.
It says people will become irrational and stubborn.
“For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.”
(2 Timothy 4:3)
#TrumpRally
Since Trump took office, the GOP has lost in Georgia:
- Two US House seats.
- Three State Senate seats.
- Fifteen State House seats.
- And it nearly lost the Georgia Governorship in 2018.
Yeah, it's pretty easy to believe Trump lost Georgia.
And for those who think that there was some sort of a problem with the 2020 Presidential vote (which you think mostly because Trump told you it was), you then need to answer some questions.
1) Were ALL the elections “rigged”? Not just in 2020 but also in 2018.
Not just in the Presidential election but also in the US House, US Senate, State House and State Senate elections in both years. Because they’ve ALL been trending in one direction and in one direction only in Georgia: toward the Democrats. Look it up yourself!
