When God Deals Trump In Lemons

I think I recall way back in balmier lemon-delivery days, which already feel Golden Ruled and Ratioed and Elixired by comparison, when the Affordable Care Act was referred to as the Democrat Agenda for universal health care, and Paris signatures were discussed, even polemically, as the Democratic Global-Spreading Agenda for climate health as contrasted to the Republicans for more aristocratic issues of wealth containment and top Wall Street Lobbyist 1% rapid expansion. Then followed Trump the Top CEO Candidate, then Trumpism, more or less replacing Republicanism, whose rhetoric became campaign prolific personalized, so Republican Agendas became President Trump's personal-corporate cancerous care defined, but never contained, as whatever is oppositional to ObamaCare. Remarkable personal problem-solving charismatic skills were promised; remarkable for their consistent weakness in practice. New Republican self-definition as whatever is not Democratic Health for All has become camouflaged through personalization, and therefore rhetorically de-politicized and neutralized regarding RealWorld economic outcomes for the 90% and the 10% becoming the 95% and the 5% becoming the 99% and the 1% Republican TrumpCare Advantage v. that Bad Old BlackBiCameral ObamaCare giving and receiving climate health rather than more TrumpTowering business as Wharton UnReal Estates usual Win to Lose ecopolitical assumptions where WinWin wears Original Constitutional colors, broadening from Patriarchal White land-owner democratizing intent toward matriarchal-patriarchal white and whatever land-owning and all other land and sea-residing democratization of healthy wealth intent. So, if you are one of many Christian evangelicals who thought TrumpTowering rhetoric sounded more prim and proper about keeping grabby hands to greedy self than did the Hillary Democratic ProHealth version of revisionism, feeling some "we're all sinner immigrant" remorse, and if your Protestant or Catholic clergyman, I might non-sicly guess, encouraged you in this Post Republican supremacist ********, or elitist direction, then please speak with them, but kindly. Encourage our fundamentalist clergy to not act like Islamic fundamentalist clergy, to instead ask themselves, "What did Jesus do and say about Publicans and Pharisees, elitist greedy money-changers grabbing ecopolitical valuables on sacred soil?" And love and health for poverties of NatureSpirits inheriting this health-wealth Earth, instead of TrumpTowering AntiLife for all who can't grab fast and hard enough to deforest our forests inside and out, to Win over Loser Christian multi-counter-culturalists, like Messiahs thinking and acting to grow cooperative healthy economies, ProHealth for all us multiculturalists, including immigrant waves of Elder Patriarchs spinning Creation Stories as God might recreate His/Her ReGenerative Selves through Golden Rules for giving and receiving LemonAid.
