Who wants to buy an official Trump-branded Bible?

Human infomercial. All he wants to do is make money off of dummies.

Hey, at least he’s holding it right side up.

[Superbone]

He is SUCH a phony. It's ridiculous that his base can't see through him.

[Nodack]

I find it almost unbelievable.

[Mori Chu]

They're willing to look the other way because he hates the people they hate.

What day is this?

[Mori Chu]

Transgender Day of Visibility started in roughly 2009. It was not created by Joe Biden. And the fact that it happens on Easter this year is a coincidence; most years they are not on the same date. Conservatives acting offended by this are showing their ass.

Republicans being Very Mad about Biden supposedly turning Easter into Trans Day.

Easter is a pagan sex ritual but go off.

Is it not offensive to millions of Catholics to imply that they are not Christians?

[Nodack]

It’s Trump….

From my experience, Catholics would rather be called Catholics than lumped in as Christians, even though they believe they are still technically Christians.

It's Trump what?

Biden doing this puts the Transgender Visibility Day over the most holy day in the Christian calendar, even though it's been going on since 2009, per Mori. To further make that point, they had a memo go out to remove all religious Easter decorations from the WH. And to show it's more important, Kathy Hochul commanded all NY landmarks to be lit up with Transgender colors today, such as the Empire State building, the One World Trade Center, and Niagara Falls. It can be seen as a slap in the face to millions of Christian Americans, and isn't very politically savy.

I don't understand why Easter follows the equinox. Whoever made that decision was drunk that day. It should always follow Passover, since Jesus and the disciples were celebrating Passover on the last supper.

I don't know man, I just work here.

This is false. It’s nothing new since the 1970s:

Some Republicans – including Johnson and Trump – also claimed that Biden banned religious-themed designs at the White House’s Easter events. The American Egg Board, which partners with the White House on Easter events, said the procedures in place this year haven’t changed.

“The American Egg Board has been a supporter of the White House Easter Egg Roll for over 45 years and the guideline language referenced in recent news reports has consistently applied to the board since its founding, across administrations,” Emily Metz, president and CEO of the American Egg Board, said in a statement.

Take it easy on them. They need something new to be outraged by.

My in-laws were going on about this shit during Easter get-together today. "Did you know, Biden turned Easter into trans day. Did you know, Biden outlawed religion during the egg roll." Etc. Fox and social media giving them all brain worms.

I've consumed a lot of egg rolls in my day, mostly chicken, none religious.
