The truth is that the President does not have the right to override the governor of a free and independent state nor does a president or any governing authority have the right to overrule the Constitution of the United States. If President Trump really cared about the Constitution, he would have made it clear from the beginning that not he or anyone else has the right to close a house of worship. Instead, he is now declaring himself a king that is reopening houses of worship that he indirectly closed to begin with. He does not have the right to rule over governors, and more importantly, he needs to understand that the Constitution has the right to rule over him!
It is well past time that Christians who are enamored by this con artist figure this out! If they do not get it soon, we will have no liberty at all, and all we will be left with is Fuhrer Trump!
God bless you Pastor! Keep fighting the good fight!

Tragically, the vast majority of America’s Christians and conservatives are incapable of this kind of clear, constitutional thinking. They are totally incapable of thinking outside the two-party matrix. They are incapable of honesty, objectivity and principled reasoning.
After almost 3 ½ years of Trump’s disingenuousness, degradation, duplicity and double-tongued rhetoric, evangelicals are still in love with the man. The worst they can say about him is, “He’s getting bad advice.” It’s never Trump’s fault. This self-proclaimed genius, the greatest president in U.S. history, the smartest and most gifted man to ever occupy the Oval Office cannot make a decision for himself. No matter what he does, it’s always someone else’s fault. Talk about cognitive dissonance!
These folks cannot admit to themselves that Donald Trump picks the people HE WANTS advising him; he listens to the people HE WANTS to listen to; he does what HE WANTS to do; and HE is accountable for every decision HE makes. Passing-the-buck apologies are so much claptrap.
In my Memorial Day message last Sunday, I made this observation:
Since becoming an adult, I’ve watched America’s slippery slope steepen throughout the last quarter of the 20th century. Then came the 21st century: 9/11 in 2001 and the coronavirus in 2020. These two events were nuclear bombs against our Constitution, Bill of Rights and God’s Natural Laws of liberty.
Notice that BOTH of these incidents happened when a so-called Christian conservative Republican was in the White House. That’s just a coincidence, right?
No! It’s not a coincidence. Neither 9/11 nor the corona scamdemic could have happened without Bush and Trump being in the White House. Why? Because the power elite KNOW that when a “Christian” Republican is in the Oval Office, evangelical Christians and conservative Republicans (including “patriots,” “constitutionalists,” etc.) become sheepish slaves of the administration. And when it comes to manufacturing seismic political events that help to usher in globalism, warfarism, Zionism and domestic tyranny, they know that the only way grassroots Christians and conservatives (who are the real power of resistance in this country) can be neutered is to put a phony, pretending Republican pawn in the White House.
That’s exactly what they did in 2000, which ushered in 9/11, and that’s exactly when they did in 2016, which ushered in the corona scamdemic. Bush brought America the first “new normal.” Now Trump is bringing America the next “new normal.” Of course, the “new normal” is nothing but old-fashioned subjugation.
People can scream, “Trump is better than Hillary or Biden or Obama or fill in the blank” all they want. But the real issue is not whether Trump or any Republican is better than Biden or any Democrat. The real issue is, does Trump or any Republican make The People better than a Democrat would? And the answer is a resounding NO!
When GW was in office, Christians and conservatives fell fast asleep, and we lost MORE liberties under Bush than we did under Bill Clinton. And with Trump in office, Christians and conservatives have not only fallen asleep, they have plunged into a deep state of bewitchment. And we have already lost MORE liberties under Trump’s first term than we did under Barack Obama’s two terms.
Why is that? Not because Bush and Trump were worse than Clinton or Obama, but because The People themselves dropped out of the freedom fight after electing Bush and Trump. The only fight in which they are now engaged is not to protect and defend Liberty and constitutional government but to protect and defend the Republican president. And those two battles are NOT the same.
