Getting Away with Donald Trump's Anti-Christian Spokeswoman
http://townhall.com/columnists/leeculpepper/2016/01/28/getting-away-with-donald-tumps-antichristian-spokeswoman-n2111355 ^ | January 28, 2016 | Lee Culpepper

Donald Trump's refusal to debate in Iowa is being diagnosed as just part of some radical-new-political strategy based on proving Trump can do whatever he wants without losing supporters. However, Barack Obama already proved this is possible in 2008.

Many Americans refused to believe their lying eyes when it came to Obama's alarming relationship with Jeremiah "God-Damn-America" Wright. In fact, Donald Trump's campaign spokeswoman, Katrina Pierson, is one of those Americans.

Today, Ms. Pierson is not Jeremiah Wright reincarnated, but she should definitely be more of an issue than Trump's decision to skip the debate in Iowa.

The Daily Caller reports that Ms. Pierson harbors a real animosity toward Christians, worships Malcolm X, and believes Republicans are racist. Shouldn't rational people question why Donald Trump would appoint someone with these views to be the chief spokeswoman for his campaign?

As reported, Ms. Pierson has a contempt for religion in general and she has mocked Christians in particular on numerous occasions. Her twitter account is loaded with her anti-Christian feelings. On one occasion, Pierson actually stated, "There are no such things as Christians. Just people who call themselves Christians."

With that in mind, does Pierson believe Donald Trump is someone who just calls himself a Christian? And if she does, would Mr. Trump consider that an insult?

While sneering at followers of Jesus, Pierson also boasts that she idolizes Malcolm X. Yea, Jeremiah "Love-the-Hell-Out-of-Rich-White-People" Wright was a big fan of Mr. X's, too.

Of course, the liberal media has no problem with Donald Trump's spokeswoman idolizing a notorious America-hating Muslim or her anti-Christian views. Liberals are only appalled that Pierson, who is half black, called for a "pure-breed" president in 2012. Who knew the liberals had a problem with black people using racial insults?

I mean, didn't Pierson's idol Malcolm X call all honkies "white devils"?

And didn't Barack Obama's racist reverend say he was sick "of negroes who just don't get it"? Furthermore, doesn't Wright now refer to Obama as our "Halfrican-American president"?

Why is it that the only problem liberals have with blacks using disparaging racial language is when Donald Trump is the Republican frontrunner and his half-black spokeswoman uses the phrase "pure bloods"? I just can't figure it out.

Meanwhile, the media is good to go with Pierson's contempt for Christians and her idolizing a racist Muslim who hated America. You know, because all of that is what patriotism is really about.

Having Ms. Pierson as the spokeswoman for Trump's campaign should raise legitimate questions about Mr. Trump's judgment, dependability, and loyalty. If Trump were president, what sort of Supreme Court justices would he appoint? What sort of people would fill his administration? Would they be individuals like Katrina Pierson who idolizes an America hater?

When Pierson landed her position as Trump's campaign spokeswoman, she said, "This is a nontraditional campaign. I can be a little bit more who I am. That's what I mean when I say it's like a perfect fit." Considering her opinion of Christians and her fawning over Malcolm X, I would say that is a fairly accurate statement.

Ms. Pierson's defenders have noted that she volunteered for Ted Cruz in the past and that Cruz has complimented her as "a fearless and principled conservative." Nevertheless, Ted Cruz never hired Ms. Pierson, and he certainly never considered making her the chief spokeswoman for his campaign. Even Donald Trump would have to concede that is a "Big difference."

Without question Ms. Pierson has every right to believe and say whatever she wants, and Donald Trump has every right to appoint whomever he wants to represent his campaign. But an anti-Christian bigot who idolizes a man who hated our country -- that's the person Trump believes should be representing his campaign to Make America Great Again? How motivating.

Trump joked over the weekend that "[he] could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and [he] wouldn't lose voters." What he should have said is that he could bring a spokeswoman -- who insults Christians, idolizes a man who hated America, and believes Republicans are racist -- to Iowa and not lose voters. But currently he's not bragging about that, at least not directly.

When you stop to think about it, maybe Obama has transformed America. In fact, it would be really interesting to know just how many of Trump's supporters voted for Obama in the past.

The best news for Donald Trump is that Jeremiah Wright wasn't even enough to derail Barack Obama. If Christian Republicans in Iowa are anything like Barack Obama voters, Trump has nothing to worry about.

On the other hand, can the same be said for America?

She worked on Cruz's 2012 Senate campaign but apparently fell out of favor with the rest of the staff

Don't see that in that article, especially the bit about being passed over for a spot (then again, I did speed read it), I do see this though:

"Cruz campaign spokeswoman Catherine Frazier said the senator "considers Katrina a friend [and] will always be grateful for her dedication and hard work to get him elected.""

And:

“I’m absolutely surprised she went to work for Trump because he’s not a conservative,” wrote Texas state Sen. Konni Burton in an email, stressing that she hoped everyone would work together in support of the eventual nominee. Along with Pierson, Burton was an early and active supporter of Cruz’s 2012 Senate bid, and she was one of the few candidates running in 2014 to secure Cruz’s endorsement in a Republican primary."

Looks like "some allies" of Team Cruz accused her of being lazy and wanting attention (this is exactly what Ted Cruz was accused of doing when working for the George Bush campaign: being lazy and wanting to get attention), but nobody bashing her for being a far lefty.

By the way, Pierson was endorsed by Sarah Palin for her own run.

I guess it took working for the Donald Trump campaign for all these "conservatives" to discover Pierson was a Communist.

Is she managing to color the Trump campaign? She’s cynically sour on Christian faith, which is one of those half-truth perceptions. I’ve seen a lot of churches that care less about the gospel than people’s own image, and that isn’t an easy spiritual hurdle to get by. HOWEVER if this is her area of concern, I think she ought to be trying to do a better job of preaching the gospel, not just damning it all. That’s what I try to do when I bump heads with “Churchianity.”

You Trumpbots are pathetic

You Cruzbots should at least make sure you aren't attacking staff members who also worked for the Cruz campaign at some point. Makes you look stupid with the whole, "Look! Trump is hiring a Commie, because Daily Caller, this worthless tabloid, says it is so!"

No worries! She’s one of the multitudes of “great people” he knows who will be helping him run the government.

"Don't see that in that article, especially the bit about being passed over for a spot (then again, I did speed read it), I do see this though:"

"Cruz campaign spokeswoman Catherine Frazier said the senator "considers Katrina a friend [and] will always be grateful for her dedication and hard work to get him elected."

Yeah, imagine that! Here, let me help you with the very next sentence/paragraph...

"But other allies of the Texas senator painted a picture of an activist more interested in self-promotion than in the unglamorous work of political organizing and said there was no clamor from Cruz's camp to bring her on board his presidential run.

"My 8-year-old did more work for Ted than she ever thought about doing," said one activist who has organized on behalf of both Cruz's Senate run and his presidential campaign."

Which I mentioned and summarized immediately after the two quotes I provided. I guess you didn't bother to read my entire post.

Geez, leave Katrina alone. I met her in AZ twice. She was fantastic in helping us publicize a pro-SB 1070 event, and did not ask for any money or even an offical mention in return (which we gave her anyway). Wonderful gal, and a hottie to boot.

People are judged by the people with whom they associate. No real Christian candidate would have her as their spokesperson.

Your summarizing leaves a little to be desired. I find it’s more honest to just put up a direct quote or link directly to the article than to “summarize” with biased interjections. But hey, that’s just me...

Well, I guess Sarah Palin isn’t a real Christian then, because she talked her up.

She tried to infiltrate the Cruz campaign, but they said no.

This woman is not a good person to have helping your campaign. She’s rude to people, and if you don’t do what she wants, she ignores your email by sending you a msg saying the message didn’t go through. I only had to receive that 3 times before I figured out what she was doing.

I didn’t see it mentioned, but she was formerly working with one of the Tea Party groups .. Niger Innis’s group. She just left there a short time ago. I had complained to Niger about her email antics .. and I guess that started the ball rolling.

Oh that’s ok. When someone else, like former candidate Scott Walker, has a questionable staffer, that’s just awful and a reason not vote for them.

But when Donnie does it, it’s cool.

That’s not a hypocritical position at all cause Donnie is special.

Her own words were she can be more herself. I’m sure the Cruz people realized she was a phony. Apparently she fits right in with the Trumpbots.

Evangelicals must be so pleased. Trump hires racist, anti-Christian loser. The more we learn about Trump, the worse it gets.

Glad she’s working for Trump. Once the media notices her stupid tweets the heat will all be on Trump
