This is the psalm that evangelical supporters of their lying cult leader — also a rapist and crook — need to read. It’s labeled “A Psalm of David,” but could easily be called “A Psalm of Donald.”
In the voice of hypocritical David, the psalmist says, “I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; … A perverse heart shall depart from me; / I will not know wickedness.” The denials sound familiar.
“Whoever secretly [or in Donald’s case, publicly] slanders his neighbor,” says David, “[h]im I will destroy; / The one who has a haughty look and a proud heart, / Him I will not endure.” Oh, really.
Finally, the psalmist claims, “He who works deceit shall not dwell within my house; / He who tells lies shall not continue in my presence.” And David — like Donald — says he himself is “perfect.”
