This will not happen for two reasons:

1. Trump posted it himself.
2. Paying someone off to claim they did it and were then fired will never work.

When no one gets fired it will be evidence Trump posted this racist garbage.

This is why these people do not understand what happened below. They fail to understand that we are not a righteous nation and never have been. Their inability to see any flaws in our nation is built on their fundamental belief that one can never apologize. Sound familiar?

BRACING NEWS!

Trump announces his rallies will replace "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" with "Song of the South" as performed by Lee Greenwood in black face.

When asked for comment Kkkaroline Leavitt said the president now feels free enough to communicate with all his true supporters.

This is also a good book on how Virginia dealt with Anglican influence while responding to growing popularity of Methodists and Baptists.

Buckley, Thomas C. Church and State in Revolutionary Virginia, 1776-1787. Charlottesville: University Press of Virginia, 1977.

Here's a good book to begin an education on religion in American politics.

Spoiler Alert: the U.S. was established as a secular nation, giving preference to no sectarian religion.

States followed suit, especially in the south where Anglicanism was quickly outnumbered by Methodists and Baptists.

This is why when that sermon by Reverend Wright came to light, I thought, "What did he say that was so incorrect?"

If the Christian God existed, I'm convinced that the elevation of Donald Trump would be Exhibit A for why America should be damned.

Where's the national moral outrage on the part of our religious institutions when it comes to #Epstein and all those tangential to him?

That's what happens when you turn a moral movement into self-help and get-rich schemes, and then there's the white Christian nationalism. πŸ˜’
