Two infestations for the price of One

Hop on the bus Russ.  Kadizzle got on the bus and headed for the airport in Auckland yesterday.  Kadizzle was the only one on the bus so he stood there and had a conversation with the bus driver who would qualify as a minority in this country.  As usual Kadizzle made a wrong assumption. Kadizzle thought the odds were slim a person of color would support Trump.  When Kadizzle mentioned what a con man for a president we had the bus driver said " Oh no, he is a good man".  Kadizzle asked what good has he done?  The drive could not answer.  So as we drove to the airport the man gradually admitted Trump might not be so great.  At some point the driver pointed out that he saw on the news where Trump opened a new Apple factory in the U.S.  If you follow the news you know Trump lied about that.

Somehow as the conversation went on the bus drive said he was a member of the LDS church.  Kadizzle suggested he read the book Under the Banner of Heaven, which does a great job of exposing that fraud.  Oh, no the driver said, he would never read anything that disagreed with the church.  So here you have the classic working person that loves Trump being abused by both religion, and the political system.  The driver explained how he used to waste money on things he did not need, but now he is trying to save.  Kadizzle said " but you are giving the church ten percent".  The driver went on to explain that was money he was giving to God.  Who knew God was broke?  Then Kadizzle pointed out all the crooked preachers and mentioned how the LDS was just recently caught in a tax fraud scheme hiding billions of dollars.  Logic was not going to penetrate this man's brain.  How many working Americans are being abused by both religion, and the Republicans?  The real beauty is Trump using religion to abuse the working class, a double whammy.
