She is the new poster girl for the popular idiom, "The only thing certain in this life is death and taxes!" Credited to American stateman Benjamin Franklin. "Our new constitution is now established, everything seems to promise it will be durable; but, in this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes." 🪦🇺🇸🤔

Ernst's statement, 'We're all going to die' really brings to the forefront of why several Christians voted for trump, in spite of the fact that he led an insurrection in order to overturn the 2020 election results, his 34 felony convictions, 30,574 + lies he has spoken in the first term and since then, and his cruelty and apathy.

I am a Christian, and I believe that Jesus will return to gather His children in the Rapture, and I am certain that they believe in Biblical prophecy also. Yet many of them voted for trump, in the hope that he will speed things up, resulting in major disasters and tragedies around the world, and that Jesus will return before things become even worse. Many Christians voted this way, not so much out of love for God and a desire to be with Him, but because they hate the world and the way things are going.

It is one thing to hate the things happening in the world: wars, diseases, hunger, crime, poverty; yet we need to ask ourselves this question: are we doing anything to change these situations?

This administration is clearly determined to make things worse for our nation, especially for immigrants, the poor, the elderly, children, the homeless, and others. Maybe that is why several Christians voted for trump and his MAGA lackeys.
