They call it “what about-ism.” It’s when someone makes a critical statement about someone and you respond with “what about”<\/em> the time so-and-so did something worse.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump has accused Joe Biden of being “against the Bible” and “against God.” That he wants to “hurt God.”<\/p>\n

I want to revisit that idiocy for just a moment.<\/p>\n

You see, that Donald Trump — of all people! — would say such a thing is laughable on its face … except that it isn’t funny.<\/p>\n

Biden is a lifelong practicing Roman Catholic. Trump has no religious experience that anyone has been able to identify.<\/p>\n

Then there’s this:<\/p>\n

Trump has admitted to never asking for God’s forgiveness; he once had a one-night stand with a porn star (allegedly) and then paid her 130 grand to keep quiet about an event he said never occurred; Trump also boasted to a TV host that he grabbed women by their genitals because he was a “celebrity” and that his celebrity status enabled him to “move on them like a bit**.”<\/p>\n

Trump’s assertion about the presumed Democratic Party presidential nominee must be judged for what it is: a cheap, tawdry political stunt.<\/p>\n\n
