ETHICS AND MORALITY. TRUMP AND DAVIS- THE ONE-TWO PUNCH OF INTOLERANCE.

As of 5:00pm, Todays Big Political News is;

-  DONALD TRUMP PLEDGING ALLEGIANCE TO THE REPUBLICAN

PARTY,  AND WILL NOT RUN AS A THIRD PARTY CANDIDATE.

-  KIM DAVIS, THE COUNTY CLERK IN KENTUCKY WHO REFUSED TO

ISSUE MARRIAGE LICENCES TO SAME- SEX COUPLES, IS FACING

JAIL TIME FOR REFUSING TO OBEY A COURT ORDER AND FEDERAL

LAW, WHICH RECOGNIZE THE LEGALITY OF THESES UNIONS.

Nothing in Common You Think?  Hardly.  They are SIMPLE BAROMETERS 

MEASURING HOW MUCH ULTRA- RIGHT WING SUPPORT THE 

REPUBLICAN PARTY BELIEVES THEY CAN EXPECT COME 

ELECTION TIME.

To Put it More Simply, HOW MUCH RACISM, SEXISM, AND RELIGIOUS 

INTOLERANCE WILL DRIVE THE MONEY INTO CAMPAIGN COFFERS, 

AND SPUR VOTER TURNOUT.

TRUMP spread his SPIEL IN AN OVERCROWDED REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL FIELD, BY INSULTING AN ENTIRE ETHNIC GROUP,VETERANS, WOMEN etc.,  did you really think his Support Would Remain Constant as the Field Shrank from those who dropped out?

KIM DAVIS does not have to PERFORM, ATTEND, OR EVEN LIKE THE

IDEA OF SAME- SEX MARRIAGE.  However, SHE AND HER ILK WANT TO 

DENY THIS OPTION TO EVERY OTHER AMERICAN. 

IT IS SO REFRESHING TO HAVE ONE PERSON OR GROUP BE THE LAST WORD ON THE STANDARDS OF MORALITY EVERYONE ELSE SHOULD LIVE UP TO,  SINCE THEY SPEAK FOR GOD.

To Them RELIGIOUS FREEDOM MUST PASS THEIR OWN STANDARDS, NOT THE CONSTITUTION, COURT SYSTEM OR EVEN THE CONCEPT OF HYPOCRISY. 

You Know, the IDEA THAT EXERCISING YOUR RIGHT OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM CANNOT BE USED TO DENY THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS OF OTHERS, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT SHE IS DOING.

So be Careful America, AND LOOK UNDERNEATH THE RHETORIC.
