Meacham, NY Times Get Religion: ‘Jesus May Be the Best Hope Against an Amoral President’
Newsbusters ^ | February 29, 2020 | Clay Waters

The New York Times on Ash Wednesday displayed more sudden respect for religion, at least of the left-wing variety, in an opinion piece by veteran journalist, presidential historian, and former editor-in-chief of Newsweek Jon Meacham, “Jesus May Be the Best Hope Against an Amoral President.” The text box: “Religious history can inspire activists in the Trump resistance.”

I guess even the Times realized the title of their TDS article was too much over the top so it was changed to "Why Religion Is the Best Hope Against Trump." Still chock full of the same TDS in the text.

p.s. Does anybody here think that Meacham would have even written a book now about Jesus if Trump were NOT president?

Typical Leftie MO: only care about Jesus when its politically expedient to do so. Mayor Pete is very good at this.

Basically, Meacham is weaponizing Jesus against the Big Bad Orange Man.

“Religious history can inspire activists in the Trump resistance.””

Now would these be the same activists who wanna kill babies, chop their penises off if they manage not to be aborted, let drag queens terrorize children, and embrace socialism that has murdered the number of people that a nuclear exchange was expected to? ...THOSE activists?

Well if we wanted to apply an equal line of thinking...Jesus might be the best hope we have against a potential amoral homosexual president Buttigieg!

Now I’ve seen it all.

NY Slimes lecturing morality and invoking Jesus.

What’s next? Enhanced 2nd Amendment needed to stop Trump supporters?

Love the Lord Thy God
Love thy Neighbor as Thyself

This is the MAGA message

Rendre la France grande à nouveau
Сделай Россию снова великой
日本を再び素晴らしいものにする
讓中國再次偉大
Maak Nederland weer fantastisch
Deutschland wieder großartig machen
Återskapa Sveriges storhetstid
मेक इंडिया ग्रेट अगेन
Κάνε την Ελλάδα Μεγάλη Και πάλι
Fanya Afrika Mashariki iwe kubwa tena

Only by tending well your own garden can one properly help your neighbor at need
Love Thy Neighbor As Thyself absolutely requires loving yourself
And All is predicated on Loving God and His Love for us

I suspect the NYT does not understand this

That is an annoying trait with these Leftist reprobates. They just LOVE to wax eloquent about matters that they are completely ignorant of.

The Bible. Morals. The Constitution. Integrity. Honor. Duty. Standards.

So on and so on. They really should just STFU.

Just a reminder that Meacham when he was the editor of Newsweek was the "genius" who proclaimed that success could be obtained by CUTTING the number of subscribers by raising the cost of a subscription. Soon after Meacham left his job there, Newsweek sold for... a buck! I did you not. It actually became so worthless that it sold for ONE DOLLAR!!!

And the left looks to Meacham as some sort of wise prophet. A prophet who could not even figure out the concept of "profit."

I suspect the only thing keeping the NYT solvent is under the table “donations” from Soros and Middle Eastern entities
