Is Freedom of Religion gone in America

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TRUMP FOLLOWERS TRYING TO DO TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, FREEDOM, RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE. BE ASHAMED....VERY ASHAMED OF CREATING THIS MONSTER. HE HAS LOST HIS MIND, AS DID HITLER. BE VERY CAREFUL OF THIS FASCIST. NO LONGER A WORD, BUT A TRUE DESCRIPTION. PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH EVERYONE WHO YOU KNOW WHO IS STILL SANE.,
"The kind of blind, senseless hatred many of our grandparents and great-grandparents fought in World War II to eradicate has found a new home in the “current political climate” brought to us courtesy of Donald Trump and the Republican Party:
A Muslim woman wearing a hijab was escorted out of Donald Trump's campaign event on Friday by police after she stood up in silent protest during Trump's speech.
Rose Hamid, a 56-year-old flight attendant sitting in the stands directly behind Trump, stood up Friday during Trump's speech when the Republican front-runner suggested that Syrian refugees fleeing war in Syria were affiliated with ISIS.
Ms. Hamid was interviewed by CNN, and is very impressive, almost dispassionately analytical about what she experienced and her reasons for being there in the first place:
“My purpose for going there,” Hamid said, “is I have a sincere belief that if people get to know each other one on one then they’ll stop being afraid of each other and we will be able to get rid of all of this hate in the world, literally.”
Her experience testifies to the mindless, dehumanized hatred that can be churned up in crowds by unscrupulous, manipulative people like Trump. Hamid even stated that the some of the people directly around her treated her with kindness, apologizing to her afterwards. According to CNN, one woman Hamid spoke with in line remarked that she "didn't look scary," but ‘like a good one’. Of course, this is the way you would speak of a dog or some other animal whom you had no prior contact with. In fact it was the people who did not make personal contact with her--the people that Trump influenced—that turned “very nasty” among the crowd. It was not until the Trump campaign thugs began forcing her out of the event that this Republican mob went fully rabid on her:
Trump supporters around her began chanting Trump's name -- as instructed by Trump campaign staff before the event in case of protests -- and pointed at Hamid and Marty Rosenbluth, the man alongside her who stood up as well.
As they were escorted out, Trump supporters roared -- booing the pair and shouting at them to "get out." One person shouted, "You have a bomb, you have a bomb," according to Hamid.
"The ugliness really came out fast and that's really scary," Hamid told CNN in a phone interview after she was ejected.
Trump’s campaign has made it clear that anyone who opposes what he says at one of his rallies will be forcibly removed. Any type of protest is forbidden. Apparently this extends to people who simply stand silently in disapproval.
After her chaotic exit, Hamid remained optimistic about the character of most people -- even those who shouted at her to "get out" -- instead blaming Trump's heated rhetoric and outsized influence.
"This demonstrates how when you start dehumanizing the other it can turn people into very hateful, ugly people," she said. "It needs to be known."
The interview with Rose Hamid is linked below. How anyone could consider her a threat necessitating her removal from a political rally is unfathomable:
What’s also striking about this latest incident is the stunning ease in which Trump rationalized away the intolerance he gins up in his followers and turned it into a personal attack on him and his supporters:
After Hamid and three others, all wearing stars reminiscent of those worn by Jews during the Holocaust, were escorted out by police and Trump campaign officials, Trump commented on the disturbance.
"There is hatred against us that is unbelievable," Trump said. "It's their hatred, it's not our hatred." 
CAN YOU FASCISTS OUT THERE BELIEVE AND CONDONE THIS COMMENT? WHO IS SPREADING HATRE HERE? ADOLF TRUMP MUST BE HELD TO ACCOUNT FOR THESE ACTIONS. 
Blaming the object of one’s bigotry has been an excuse for racist demagaogues throughout history. It’s bad enough for our children to have to see these things we fought so long and hard to protect them from coming to fruition in this nation. It’s even worse when they hear it coming from someone who has pretensions to being President."

Trump is now somehow a religious idol

Some religious fanatics have officially gone bonkers. The far right have been pushing a meme for several years now that the amoral creature, conman, egomaniac, and bad person in the WH “has been sent by God to be ‘a vessel for the purposes of the faithful’ in the role of King of the United States of America,” according to Katherine Stewart.  A firefighter picks up a Bible in a moment of revelation and automatically turns to Isaiah 45. Agent Orange is also number 45. Coincidence? I think so. This disclosure is because Cyrus in Isaiah 45, is “saved” and becomes Emperor of Babylon, freeing the Jews. These Christian Nationalists, no relation to the saner version of ages past, believe the adulterer, misogynist, oaf in the White House, who is encouraging them, will save humanity.  Tony Perkins, Ralph Drollinger and V.P Mike Pence support it, as well. Deport them.

The Great builder STILL believes the wall will take three days to build.

  The Moscow Lapdog-in-Chief, stated, “Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally.” This was the first time he ever mentioned the deaths of the children by his own actions and edicts. Those children would not have been protected.  Knowing his intelligence level, he probably believes his wall can be built in three days. Most people think it would take up to fifteen years. Moreover, no one believes it will be effective.   Also on the last days of the year, the megalomaniac froze wages for Federal Workers who have been furloughed; people who are out of work, while the person responsible whines about spending the holidays alone (he did not), dines. He canceled his appearance at the New Year’s Eve Gala at Mar-A-Lago. Investors paid vast amounts of money to be in the same room with him — no refu...

Republican malevolence

The Temp President has created a mess. His vindictive Captain Queeg act and a Captain Ahab, McConnell, at the helm.  Now, a fugleman, Peter Lorre impersonator Lindsey Graham, has decided, amidst the clutter and chaos caused by the new Trump Party, to emulate his not-so-divine leader.  The new Senate Judiciary Chairman has decided during this period of Trump-inspired confusion and disorderliness, to dig up old, settled issues.  He’s decided to use the committee to begin investigations of the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton; maybe Benghazi. Of course, this is nothing but another infant being placed in a position of being able to turn on the gas on the kitchen stove. Pampers diapers must be doing great business in D.C. Trump promised that following the elections, he would request these inquiries. Now, as the self-appointed Lord of Congress, he has his sycophants bidding his orders. Neither he nor McConnell nor Graham nor McCarthy nor 53 Senate Republicans ar...
