Where would Congressman Collins like the New Jersey born US National to be deported to?
Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.

Religious leader asks Trump et al for compassionate treatment of the most vulnerable in our society and the religious right melts down in fury.

Some vast portion of American Christianity is a perversion. Jesus would condemn it.

In other words, she is being excoriated for refusing to be a hateful bigot, like Trump. In truth, she was both the most rational and compassionate participant at that event. Trump proves again that in his eyes, the worst and most pernicious bigotry is opposition to bigotry itself!

Christian Clergy: "Please remember these basic Christian principles that Christ extols in his Beatitudes."

MAGA: "Apologize for your leftist propaganda!!!!!!"

Congratulations to the Republican "America is a Christian Nation" Party, for electing our first anti-Christ atheist President, and then ironically wearing his mark on their foreheads.

The religious right no longer supports that kind of Jesus. They want a Jesus riding a Velociraptor carrying an AK-15 and wearing a white pointy hood on his head.

Deported is a new right-winger euphemism for executed. They are the Morlocks to the woke leftists Eloi. They will devour you.

Serious question - In the US of Trumpland, if a child is born in what used to be the USA to a parent who in turn was born in what used to be the USA to an illegal immigrant, who gets deported?

Here's why it's a serious question - Trump's grandfather was a Bavarian who emigrated to the United States of Trumpland when it used to be the USA. He did so illegally because he failed to complete his mandatory two years national service in Bavaria. So both Donald, and his father Fred, are the product of an illegal immigrant. You simply cannot make this up.

I heard Trump once tell a story about how sad it would be to have to deport a woman because she was married to a criminal, and he wanted to keep families together. :roll: Right.

In his example, the criminal wasn't born here, but since Trump's wife wasn't born here and she is married to a convicted felon, is there a chance we could use Trump's threats about immigration to deport the whole First Family?
