Mr. Trump At Rev. Falwell's University | National Catholic Reporter

Mr. Trump At Rev. Falwell's University | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: Frankly, I was not at all surprised at Trump going to Liberty.  The reality is that, rather than libertarian, both are authoritarian.  Neither tolerates dissent from either within or without (there are some bishops like that who are probably secretly on the Trump bandwagon).  Donald "Your fired" Trump is no compassionate egalitarian, except maybe with his family - although his ex-wifes may support my original thesis.  Trump, his spiritual mentor, Fallwell and his followers are all essentially devotees of the Prosperity Gospel, which goes farther than Mani - indeed it is a western form of Brahmanism.  In that view,some people will never win - especially the brownest of the brown (which is why this ilk hates Barack Obama so much). The anti-intellectualism is another common trait.  As MSW says, they deserve each other.
