Unequal Weights and Measures, and the Prosecution of Donald Trump

When it comes to the prosecution of Donald Trump, it can be difficult to make heads or tails for a lot of casual observers, as to whether he really has done so many horrible, sleazy things as the Democrats accuse him, or whether the Democrats just so happen to accuse him of so many horrible, sleazy things because they are Democrats.

By this, I mean that the Democrats are really in no position to be telling us who is and is not sleazy, nor should we trust them when they turn every statement and decision on the most scandalous detail they can grasp at, inventing details out of whole cloth and speculation when they have to, all the while entirely oblivious to the heinous aspects of their very public policy platform.

At least when we hear some ugly rumor about Trump it might be just that, a rumor, and nothing more. The Democrats, on the other hand, revel in the daytime, and have forgotten how to blush. Moreover, they are the meanest hypocrites when they all the while pretend to enjoy moral superiority over their arch foe.

Trump Has Behaved Badly, the Left Has Behaved Worse

Make no mistake, Trump has been sleazy. Doubtless also, he has done things, and ordered others to do things, which were shady at best. But the Democrats are worse. However bad Trump is, they are far more bad. And the reason for this is that Trump, to my way of thinking at least, doesn’t pretend at being more virtuous than he is.

Can he be sincerely wrong when he believes himself to be in the right, and standing up for what is true? Certainly. But you can’t expect me to believe the Democrats either know or care about either righteousness or truth – not when they promote what they do, and denigrate what they do, in broad daylight, then seek to destroy anyone who challenges them.

Abortion, homosexuality, transgenderism, racism, environmentalism, and socialism – these are the very things they should be ashamed and repentant of. Yet these are what they build their election and re-election campaigns off of.

It should go without saying that they do this publicly, in full view of both God and man, brazenly and without apparent embarrassment. But allow me to stress the unremarked fact that the Democrats turn their scandals into campaign promises. The Left in this country turns precisely what is most disgraceful into the basis of executive actions, legislative agendas, and judicial appointments.

All the while, they scapegoat Trump and Republicans as easily as breathing, for every failure to deliver objectively beneficial and successful results. We are just so many sheep for the sacrificial altar to them, to atone for all their sins. Yet when they grasp at us to offer us to their false gods, they only add to their list of transgressions.

Unequal Weights and Measures for Social Justice

“Unequal weights and unequal measures are both alike an abomination to Yahweh.”
Proverbs 20:10

This they forget, and are happy to put out of view. Independent fact-checkers have determined this claim to be false, they’ll say. And their lapdog media allies will trot out, hair and makeup done to perfection, from the most credible-looking sets and backdrops they can muster, to explain to us how unequal weights and unequal measures are a systemic problem they are actually solving if you grade on a curve adjusted for centuries or millennia of Western civilization marginalizing and oppressing women, people of color, and degenerates.

There is a simple word for all of this, and it is ‘deceit.’ The particular variety also makes the short list of what God detests – sowing discord among brothers.

”The poor use entreaties, but the rich answer roughly.” –
Proverbs 18:23

So Trump answers roughly, because he’s really rich. Meanwhile, the Left is even richer, not least because most rich men are content to cater to the Left in exchange for being allowed to blend into the crowd during the bloody ceremonies, all the while cutting their backroom deals which ensure that their estates will grow, their holdings will increase, their stature will remain unperturbed, and their reputations will go unmolested.

Add this to the list of hypocrisies on the Left, that they rail against Trump and Republicans whenever the same answer roughly, all the while answering more roughly, because they are richer, and greedier for unjust gain, all the while claiming to speak for the poor.

Repent All The More of Politics As Usual

Those who think only in human terms will say all this is just so much dirty politics, and it’s always been this way. Left or right makes no difference. Everyone does what is corrupt. Keeping your head down and staying out of it is the only way to maintain clean hands, then. What they miss when they reason like this is that what is unfolding before our eyes is not normal, but an atypical and aggressive form of rebellion against the Most High God.

We can come to no other conclusion when we consider all the isms which the Left champions.

“For rebellion is as the sin of divination, and presumption is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of Yahweh, he has also rejected you from being king.”
1 Samuel 15:23

Thus we can know that the wicked will not prosper, but for a time, before blowing away like so much chaff. No authority exists among men except that which God ordains, bestows, permits, and orchestrates.

For such times as these, the point is not whether we can single-handedly or banding together get the ship turned right-side up again, or steer it away from the jagged rocks just ahead. Rather, the point is that we do not join with the wicked when they seek to enlist us in their schemes.

Nor either do we spread false reports, or even allow ourselves to keep silent as others are being led away to the slaughter. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob never permitted human sacrifice except once, in the case of Jesus Christ himself on the cross serving as the obedient atonement for our sins.

Animals for People, or else People for Animals

Prior to the crucifixion, what did God ordain as propitiation for sins?

“Yahweh called Moses and spoke to him from the tent of meeting, saying, “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When any one of you brings an offering to the Lord, you shall bring your offering of livestock from the herd or from the flock.”
Leviticus 1:1-2

That is to say, God called for one’s own livestock to be offered up. Not like the pagans, who offered their own children, Israel was forbidden from worshiping their God like that; animals were sacrificed in place of people.

Yet the Left in our day does just the opposite. They offer up people in place of animals, to save the planet from the effects of economic development and the fulfillment of the dominion mandate. Rather, they do just the opposite of whatever God has commanded, and therefore reveal themselves to be rebels against the Most High through and through. Is it any wonder, then, that they miscarry justice, or pervert the truth?

Watch, and you will see, how true of them will be the judgment pronounced on New Babylon in the book that closes the canon.

“…[And] the light of a lamp

will shine in you no more,

and the voice of bridegroom and bride

will be heard in you no more,

for your merchants were the great ones of the earth,

and all nations were deceived by your sorcery.”
Revelation 18:23

God Opposes the Proud But Gives Grace to the Humble

Even without special revelation, the general consensus of secular history attests to this fact, that no nation was ever saved from the disastrous effects of faithlessness, godlessness, immorality, greed, envy, selfishness, deceit, and treachery by virtue of having at some point had the strongest economy or military.

Nor either will we prevent a total collapse, and being brought very low, just because our country boasted these things.

In point of fact, all the more rather than less we will be overthrown by God Himself because of our boasting if we don’t repent, and turn from our sins, and seek God’s face, because God opposes the proud.

On the other hand, if we will humble ourselves before the Lord, seeking peace and pursuing it, doing justice, and loving mercy, and walking humbly before our God, then He will prove all His promises to be faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, including the unrighteousness that is hypocrisy.
