No — he gave himself a tax break. I mean, forgive him for being an asshole. Signed, Evangelicals (Image Source)

He worships money
Disrespects people
Isn’t humble, honest
Moral or generous
A self-righteous hypocrite
Who holds grudges
Forgives others?
No, but he’s new
To being “Christian”
And he’s campaigning

Inspired by this week’s poem and prompt by Fierce Force 💃🏼, “Break”. Thanks also to our host, Kathy Jacobs, and the entire Chalkboard team!
