“This man has got to face his maker and explain why he can’t say ‘Jesus Christ’ is my Lord and savior and I will run my country under his guidelines,” he said during a Newsmax interview at the time.
This line sent shivers down my spine. Fucking religious zealots.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof”
How about this for a reason?
Because they want to control people. Religion has always existed to control them he masses and the GOP is more desperate than ever before to maintain their control over their dwindling voters.
They want a dictatorship and religion is just another means for them to seize it.
“… my country …”
That’s what caught my eye.
Conservatives have always wanted the president to be their daddy and rule over them like their daddies did when they were kids.
a reason many of them are christians, too.
Just to make it crystal clear, a Christian who is being inaugurated as President will swear a solemn oath, almost certainly with their hand on the Bible, to defend the Constitution.
Joe Biden, like every President before him, including Trump, swore a solemn oath not to do what John Schneider is insisting upon.
If a President elect believed what Schneider is suggesting, he would either be unable to take the oath of office, and thus could not ever be President, or he would swear to God that he was telling the truth when he was lying.
Because the nutjobs see it as congress can’t stop them from doing anything, not that congress also can’t support them.
Also because biden is Catholic and the pope would probably be mad at him making a nuclear armed theocracy

I always enjoy the nebulous “treason” accusation. At least when I call Donnie a traitor I have a concrete list of grievances instead of a dozen inferences and leaps in logic.
Yeah. Trump and his direct supporters engaged and were filmed engaging in actual insurrection. They made a gallows and had people with ziptie cuffs in masks roaming around the capital.
These asshats are just trying to water down the word because they know they fit the description too well.

Well kids, gather 'round and let me tell you about the before times. Back in my day the Secret Service would be on this guy like white on rice.
Like flies on shit
Yeah but he’s a white Christian male. Laws don’t apply to them.
You’re missing my point. Threats against the President of the United States used to be investigated. Every. One.
Hell, my gf wrote some shit about killing Reagan in her journal or essay or whatever. Forgot how it got out 35 years ago, don’t remember. USSS showed up to question a cute little white girl. A high school junior. From a very nice suburb.
Nobody got a pass on shit like that.
they still do. this guy didn’t say he intended to do anything though, which is a pretty big difference
Is this not ‘I want to kill the president of the United States’ level shit that is straight up illegal?
Yup. He’s going to get a visit from the Secret Service if not his local sheriff very shortly.
If the sheriff responds, it’ll be for an autograph.
Doubt
If Kathy Griffith got a visit, so should he.
Secret service used to take stuff like this more seriously
They did! Now we shamefully have a criminal on the Republican party ticket. All has changed for the worse quickly.
When the calls for terrorist attacks come from anarchists VS when the calls for terrorist attacks come from fascists
Recently unveiled as the Donut on reality show The Masked Singer, Schneider took to X, formerly Twitter, to share his violent views.
This is our nation’s current political discourse in a (do)nutshell.
I’m glad washed up celebs are telling me their politics. Its what I needed in this close race /s
I feel more satisfied with my decision to quit that show.
I call for John Schneider to be institutionalized.
So will the feds hound Schneider like they did Kathy Griffin?
Conservatives sure do live their washed up b-list actors.
And their b list washed up gods
In 2022, he criticized the president for not saying “Jesus” in his Christmas speech.
Because, and Trump has a similar problem with understanding this extremely simple fact: THIS ISN’T A FUCKING CHRISTIAN COUNTRY!
Has Trump even once mentioned Jesus?
He held the Bible upside down once.
Yes but he was referring to his undocumented gardener.
He does in the most pandering way possible.
Which makes this totally unsurprising: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2020/03/25/most-americans-dont-see-trump-as-religious/
Not only do most Americans not see him as religious, significantly less than half even think he’s a Christian.
What did you expect from the guy who drove this?
What the fuck is wrong with people? The whole world has gone insane.
“I don’t want to live on this planet anymore” saying is appropriate
I hope in the future the Smallville wiki is just a list of the bizarre reasons its Alumni went to jail. So far we have NXVM cult leader Allison Mack, Drug Dealer-Sam Jones III, and hopefully in the near future - Terroristic Threats - John Schneider.
Everyone should listen to Biden on Conan OBrien’s podcast. He’s old but not demented. He’s the president we need but don’t deserve.
