Romans 13:1:

"Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God." Which would have included Barack Obama, of course.

Odd how they kinda ignored that verse from 2008 to 2016.

They also play the abortion card, ignoring the fact that the Republican-controlled Congress could have passed legislation related to abortion and Roe v. Wade in the two years 2017-2018, and Mango Mussolini would have signed it. They talk endlessly about abortion, and do nothing about it. Hypocrites.
