One thing I like about Presidential campaigns, the fringe candidates.

And this guy cracks me up laughing, at how blithering stupid he is.

Christian Party Presidential Candidate: Criminalize Homosexuality & Adultery, Turn USA Into Christian Theocracy

Darrell Trigg is running for president and forming his own political party, the Christian Party. The first point of his campaign platform is to do away with separation of church and state and make it union of church and state instead. This means, among other things, the official religion of the United States will be Christianity. He wants to make the Bible a standard required subject in all public schools and universities, for all grades. Every day of school will be started with a prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance. Trigg wants to increase the legal drinking age to 25 and ban alcohol on college campuses. He also says if he becomes president, “homosexuality will not be recognized legally, or in any other manner, by the United States government or any state, city, or county government.” This would also include a restriction in the rating system for TV shows to ban any show or movie that contains homosexuality, among other stricter restrictions.

3. How much more insane is this insane man than Trump? By a degree or two more, maybe.

5. Not much dippier but I invoke
