Donald J. Trump transformed the governance mentality of the GOP into a MOB mentality. Th us, the GOP’s Project 2025 Platform is proof positive, because it gives institutional political cover to malnutrition of the brain Trumpsters who desire White Privilege Autocracy, rather than Mul-ticultural Democracy. Trump has declared that he wants to be a Kingly dictator for one day, but Project 2025 is forever, not one day. Least we forget a mob is a lawless group of individuals. America, the Bible warns us concerning association with the disorderly and the lawless, because association brings about assimilation. Th e eternal moral question is: Can most Americans on November 5th, 2024, choose to come from among the immoral-disorderly? Life is about choices, and Th e GOP offers no moral choice (s), because nation-state self-annihilation (suicide) is not a choice. Suicide is insanity to the nth degree.
Everyone dies. It’s the natural order of creation. Therefore, why commit suicide when death has already been appointed and pre-determined by God, the creator? Th us: “What man can live and not see death?” (Psalm 89: 48). How do we live in Godly community with each other is the real issue, not how we die. Th us, there is no life that is not lived in human community, and no community not lived under the reality of God; whereby equal is equal, not equal is unequal. Christian Right Evangelicals need to fully understand this spiritual admonish: “God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth dwelleth not in temples made with hands, neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed any-thing, seeing that he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; and hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation…..And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men everywhere to repent: because he hath appointed a day, in which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained: (Acts 17: 24-27 and Acts 17: 30-31).
American Democracy requires an inclusive Godly mentality because of the spiritual-moral principles embedded in the Preamble as well as the U. S. Constitution. Th e GOP Mob Mentality cannot live by these inclusive spiritual and moral democratic principles, because they desire some-thing for nothing based upon White Autocratic Privilege. America is at a spiritual moral crossroads: which way Multi-cultural Democracy or White Privileged Autocracy? Th e choice is spiritually and morally clear. Former President Trump is not a choice. Trump represents the death of multi-cultural democracy in American society. Th e 2024 Presidential election is not about Trump and Biden. It’s about the kind of country we desire to live in. It’s about the American people and their spiritual values: Democracy or Autocracy? Socio-economic equality and justice for all, regardless of race, religion or creed. Justice must be grounded in the moral principle that no one is above the law. Law is about moral order. Or do we desire a society; whereby the Presidency has become a get-out of jail free card? America, give me Biden rather than Trump any day in the week, and twice on Sunday.

As September 13th rolls around, we extend our warmest birthday wishes to the creative powerhouse, Tyler Perry, a man whose indomitable spirit and groundbreaking work have left an indelible mark on the world of entertainment. With his multifaceted talents as an actor, playwright, screenwriter, producer, and director, Tyler Perry has not only entertained but also inspired audiences worldwide, particularly within the African-American community, where his influence and role have been nothing short of powerful. Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1969, Tyler Perry’s journey to stardom was a path riddled with adversity. Raised in a turbulent household, he found refuge in writing, using it as a therapeutic outlet. This period of introspection gave rise to one of his most iconic creations, Madea, a vivacious, no-nonsense grandmother who would later become a beloved figure in Perry’s works, offering a unique blend of humor and profound life lessons. Despite facing numerous challenges, including rejection and financial struggles, Perry’s determination and unwavering belief in his abilities propelled him forward. In 1992, he staged his first play, “I Know I’ve Been Changed,” which, although met with limited success, was a pivotal moment in his career. Unfazed by initial setbacks, Perry continued to hone his craft, and by 1998, he had successfully produced a string of stage plays that showcased his storytelling prowess.
