Christian Republican conservatives and Far-Right extremists who are now in charge regularly demonize and punch down on the homeless. They assume they are on drugs or that they deserve being where they are for some horrible or a series of horrible decisions. They treat them poorly when they pass them in the street, drive by them and wish the tents would just “disappear” without any thought to those suffering inside them. These are your “good Christians”, your Evangelicals that go around saying things like “What Would Jesus Do (WWJD)”. Well my fellow American Jesus wouldn’t treat the homeless like you do that’s for sure. Jesus was about helping the poor and sick not punching down on them.
So Trump, “God’s chosen leader for the US”, according to the majority of Evangelical Christians, got upset while seeing tents along the road on his way into DC. Doesn’t care about the people in them or their suffering. Just sees these people and their tents as an eye soar and demands they be removed. Ask me why I’m not surprised?
Rural communities regularly bus their homeless, drug addicts, the mentally ill and other undesirable people like immigrants to large cities in their state that are usually run by Democrats. They can then blame the problems on their political opponents. They don’t care who gets hurt in the process. Now we have a POTUS behaving like all the POS chuds do at the state level at the national level.

The truth is crime rates in DC are down. So this isn’t about crime. This is about punching down on the homeless and “cleaning up an eye soar” for him and his rich buddies who could care less about any of us especially the homeless. Its about striking fear in the hearts of mayors in Democratic cities. Its bullying. Its how a mob bus would keep people in line not how a President should act. This is fascism.
