Do it. They will have to find some ham-fisted legal mechinism to do it and it will further piss off his base.

Dont inturupt your enemy when they are making a mistake

Ok - "something bad about Trump". Now go revoke their exemption, there's billions in taxes to be collected

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 week ago

Soooooo, this tells me that churches are saying shit against him and this is hurting his base numbers. LMAO.

Conservative Christians were only ever useful idiots to the GOP.

[–] letsgo2themall@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

They already play politics, so they shouldn't be exempt at all. But he will never do this because for the 1% that might criticize him, the other 99% will keep voting for him because he is "gods chosen leader".

Definitely not fascistic to threaten consequences for speaking badly of the dictator

If churches get taxed then they are gonna need representation in the government.

Or have we done away with the "no taxation without representation" thing, too ?

Well Puerto Rico pays taxes and they aren't a state.. so I'd say yeah

Just like businesses get their own representatives, right?

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They do, it's called a lobbyist and every politician is owned by some business interest or another

"You can't tax companies because that would be like double taxing the people"

Then the companies go on to legally lobby politicians when people have a max donation of 10k, and companies can now pretty much "donate" unlimited amounts.

...is that not double(+) representation with singular taxation?

I’m pretty sure religion is well represented in government hence the tax exemptions.

Ask the residents of DC

[–] tgt@programming.dev 5 points 1 week ago

Or the over 3.6 million people in the territories of the US.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago

I'm guessing you just woke up from a long nap. The church definitely has representation in the US government.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

Now here's a guy that knows nothing about the state of Utah. Or virtually all of the South I guess.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Quick, someone pretend to be a church and insult him. He won't know the difference.

[–] blitzen@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

It’ll just be something else he can “sell” to people willing to pay.

[–] 5715@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

How do we make sure churches say something bad about him? /s

Trump's if-then-statements are notoriously untrustworthy. TACO.

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

This is why I will always respect Queen Donvict tRUMP, the most orangest of child rapists.
