It's like a staph infection - we carry it around with us our whole lives, and once in a while something triggers it, and it grows and spreads, and it can threaten the survival of its host.
Time:
(APPOMATTOX, Va.) -- Amid a national furor over President Donald Trump’s tweet urging four Democratic congresswomen to “go back” to their home countries, a Virginia pastor is gaining attention with a sign at his church saying “America: Love or Leave It.”
ABC 13 in Lynchburg reports hundreds of people have expressed support and opposition on social media to the sign outside Friendship Baptist Church in Appomattox.
Pastor E.W. Lucas told the station Tuesday that he wanted to make a statement about the political divisions in Washington.
“People that feel hard about our president and want to down the president and down the country and everything, they ought to go over there and live in these other countries for a little while,” Lucas said.
Trump set off a firestorm Sunday when he tweeted that four freshmen congresswomen “originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe,” and urged them to “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.”
What this Press Poodle-y Both-Sides bullshit piece in Time doesn't mention is that when Mr Lucas began his Sunday school service this week, his congregation got up and walked out on him.
