Donald Trump is compared to Jesus after impeachment
Staff writer Thu 19 Dec 2019 10:44 GMT

Evangelicals have called the impeachment of Donald Trump as a "sham" and "farce".

The Democrat-majority House of Representatives voted in favour of impeaching the US president by 230 votes to 197 for alleged abuse of power.
Speaking during the debate, Republican Barry Loudermilk, of Georgia, compared Trump to Jesus Christ standing trial before Pontius Pilate.
"When Jesus was falsely accused of treason, Pontius Pilate gave Jesus the opportunity to face his accusers," he said.

"During that sham trial, Pontius Pilate afforded more rights to Jesus than the Democrats have afforded this president and this process."

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Just goes to show that Pilate, for all his failings, was more fair than Democrats.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
