Trump really likes to hire chihuahuas for lawyers.
Off topic but I immediately distrust anyone that wears a crucifix so prominently especially one made with precious metals and stones.
It’s like a dog whistle to their perceived moral superiority. I like it though because I know to avoid them.
more importantly the hypocrisy of it. Even in my Christian days I had a hard time understanding why crosses were always good and silver. You'd think wood crosses be the only acceptable symbol
I feel a cheap metal also works, but it should be unassuming. I also feel like they should be wearing it under their shirts not openly. "Do not pray as the hypocrites" and whatnot.
Well perhaps not "hiding " it, but yea, less outward displays of dogmatic purity would make more sense overall. Christianity's primary selling point is that the least of us are the most deserving of compassion.
I know this is pedantic, but that's a cross, not a crucifix. The difference is that a crucifix has jesus on it.
I only mention this because I was hoping to see a bedazzled jesus corpse and was super disappointed.
Maga lacks the sheer catholic drip to try that.
I bet MAGA crucifixes would sell well, just use the tackiest gold spray paint you can find
Most importantly, they're all smoking hot. In case he needs to grab them by the pussy.
I’d say, like chihuahuas, they’re cute from a distance but up close they are just nasty.
Well the metaphor breaks down almost immediately because Chihuahuas are badass mothafuckaz. They're like having a concealed carry.
trump's lawyers though are culled from the dregs of the washout, fame-seeking, braindead, dipshit sludge that surrounds him where they prance in and are unceremoniously farted on and dragged out again.
I'll have to take your word. That photo above sure ain't it.
