Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?!?! Trump has Lost Falwell U?

At Liberty University, the "University" founded by Jerry Fallwell, and run by his son, Jerry Jr, is now experiencing student protests over the decision of Junior to endorse Donald Trump:
Students at Virginia’s Liberty University have issued a statement against Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump as young conservatives at some colleges across the country reconsider support for his campaign.

A statement issued late Wednesday by the group Liberty United Against Trump strongly rebuked the candidate as well as the school’s president, Jerry Falwell Jr., for defending Trump after he made vulgar comments about women in a 2005 video.

“Donald Trump does not represent our values and we want nothing to do with him,” the statement said. “… He has made his name by maligning others and bragging about his sins. Not only is Donald Trump a bad candidate for president, he is actively promoting the very things that we as Christians ought to oppose.” 
I think that this might be a harbinger of the apocalypse.*

I am so glad I took yesterday off from the world.

*Full disclosure, no I don't think that this is, "A harbinger of the apocalypse." I don't actually believe in the apocalypse, the rapture, etc. It is not a part of normative Judaism.

  1. Good time for the potentially intelligent young folk to see past the train wreck that is the gop and recognize the back and forth "solid allegiances"..for what they are...people lookin to stay employeed no matter how craven they appear.
    Like obamas' comments about the now anti trump gop..

    “They don’t get credit for, at the very last minute, when finally the guy that they nominated and they endorsed and they supported is caught on tape saying things that no decent person would even think, much less say, much less brag about, much less laugh about or joke about, much less act on,”
