This is Christian Nationalism
Vance just had to meet a Neo Nazi group since they represent him and Orange Hitler

Pope = 1; Vance = 0

The US version of christocracy is foreign to many ecumenical leaders.

nevergonnakneel.bsky.social•7 days ago

JDs been a Christian for about 15 minutes he must know more than the pope

ladybuggers.bsky.social•7 days ago

And the award for the biggest assholes in the world, presented by the Pope, goes to Baby Vance and the Devil Wears Orange. 😂😂😂

Neither Trump nor Musk give a rats ass about the Pope or Christian teachings. They are simply using religion as a prop for their grifts

joseph2482.bsky.social•7 days ago

These folks spend too much time alone!

"Musk, Homan, Leavitt, and others...are...infected with arrogance. "Trump-Musk-Vance systematically abandoning our obligations to the global poor with an indifference bordering on venality."

Vote your best interests 2026!!!

They are all faux Christians who only do lip service on Sundays (if they go to church at all), and only cosplay being disciples of Christ the rest of the time. Religion is just a stage prop to them.

mcpharless.bsky.social•7 days ago

The capitalism (money) and christian nationalism (votes) alliance has been devastating. You should be calling and writing your religious leaders and saying Trumpism is unacceptable.

If you actually think Jesus would support Trump and the people in his administration:

daveeddy.bsky.social•7 days ago

Trump and Musk hate Brown People.
That's all there is to it.

As preposterous as it sounds, it is in keeping with 100% of his beliefs and he's not alone. See Paul Weyrich's founding manifesto for the Federalist Society. Dig into the membership of the Council for National Policy. (More the Christian Nationalist Party)

Vance Musk and Trump are all trying to out-uglyamerican the others

It is as if neither Trump or Vance have any basic concept of Christianity.

mimisungoddess.bsky.social•7 days ago

I’d repost if that pic of Elon Nazi wasn’t there.

doctorp2.bsky.social•7 days ago

Musk’s stiff arm salute isn’t raised in prayer. These are inherently evil people. The crimes the are willing to commit, and will, will be evident soon

dominiondem.bsky.social•7 days ago

The richest nation on planet earth under the leadership of a multibillionaire decides to end its charity. How evil, how immoral is that? Of course, trump personally has NO charity; now he seeks to transfer his immorality to America.

Evangelicals are his base. Do they still support the devil?

There is no Christianity in the corrupt world of Trump, Elon and the GOP that are allowing the destruction of the US government!

gwalchmai24.bsky.social•7 days ago

I would be funny were the Pope to excommunicate them both.

rottensisters.bsky.social•7 days ago

You know you suck when the Pope calls you out.

bill-grayson.bsky.social•7 days ago

Unfortunately Vance and Trump and Musk are craven enough to turn the full might of every apparatus that they control against even the Pope.
It's sickening to think about, but they have the presidency, and have made it clear to the world that they intend to win with it at all cost.

sierranighttide.bsky.social•7 days ago

Even the pope thinks he's a f√cking idiot - WOW

cephelius.bsky.social•7 days ago

Elon has deathcamps?

ballardmike.bsky.social•7 days ago

Not if we give him time

michael-iger.bsky.social•7 days ago

America First is a fascist slogan used by Hitler for Germany and Mussolini in Italy. There is nothing Christian about it, but as in Germany, hate for Jews and others. With Mussolini, dreams of past glories and new conquests. In the U.S., the change to an Imperialistic predator nation.

yrigoytia.bsky.social•7 days ago

They have to keep fluffing it into their speeches to keep the evangelicals on the line.
