Sarah Sanders says that “God wanted Trump to become president.” Well, of course he did. He also wanted Ivan the Terrible to kill his own son and Elvis to die on the toilet. Also the Spanish Inquisition, the 1755 Lisbon earthquake, the 2019 detention camps in Texas and, let us not forget,
syphilis. Sanders has become the 21st century version of Dr. Pangloss, who (readers of
Candide will remember) lost his nose to syphilis, but still maintained that syphilis was a “good” thing, since the same sailors who brought the disease to Europe from America also brought with them
chocolate! Hence, without syphilis, we wouldn’t have chocolate. You see? It is all God’s will, part of that beneficent, loving package deal that gave us this "best of all possible worlds"--including Donald Trump and teacher/preacher Sarah, herself. Praise the Lord.
