Longtime GOP strategist Rick Wilson has received widespread praise for coining the term, "everything Trump touches dies."
The four-word analysis explains how Trump has a history of harming everyone around him.
Reporters were stunned on Friday following a bizarre gaggle that acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller held with the press.
"I so…I mean, I cannot wait to leave this job, believe me," Miller said.
With President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration less than a week away, many far-right conspiracy theorists continue to make the thoroughly debunked claim that the election was stolen from President Donald Trump — including evangelical pastor Robert Henderson. This week, Henderson angrily claimed that Biden couldn't have won the 2020 election legitimately because God wouldn't have allowed it to happen.
During an unhinged rant, Henderson told his followers, "You're going to tell me that a man that has been the best friend that Christianity and the kingdom of God has had is going to be removed by God and replaced by a baby-killing socialist?

Oh, really, what do you say when he says that Jesus Christ is the most famous person on the Earth?"
