It is difficult to predict the outcome of any Presidency, but with Donald Trump the worst-case scenarios seem particularly plausible, because he is so uninterested in the safeguards that might prevent them.

One of my favorite things about my job is getting to hang around with people who really know what they're talking about.

It's a mistake to expect the laws of the country to reflect the imperatives of the New Testament and the Sermon on the Mount. I applaud the efforts of the Church to provide for people in need, regardless of where they're from or how they got here. But I think it's a mistake to turn around and expect a nation to act that way. Americans are uniquely tempted to imagine that we are a church, and that we are a universal nation. This is one of the reasons why we're such a dangerous country.
