It was also one of the first depictions to Americans of a totally evil child: 8 year-old Rhoda Penmark, the almost too-perfect little girl to her parents is actually a cold-blooded killer. It was considered by some to be one of the scariest movies of all time because the character of Rhoda was unthinkable: a child born without a conscience.

Born without a conscience.

Without a conscience.

Today in America we have experienced what many have considered a man without a conscience: President Donald J. Trump. The difference between "The Donald" and "Rhoda" being that while Rhoda was born without a conscience and fictional, Donald Trump nurtured by his father and family to be conscience-less and his story is entirely, (and unfortunately) non-fictional. From excerpts leaked, Mary Trump's book, Too Much and Never Enough seems to bring home that concept: that America accepted a President whose conscience was "0". Fred Trump trained The Donald to be a "killer." He trained him never to accept losing. Evil Roy Cohn (his first attorney and former Joe McCarthy henchman) embellished Trump's education with his lifelong dictum "Attack, counterattack and never apologize."

A person without a conscience never feels the need to apologize for anything. Or repent for anything.

NO Principles

Maryanne Trump was particularly baffled by support for her brother among evangelical Christians, according to the book
"The only time Donald went to church was when the cameras were there," Ms. Trump quotes her aunt as saying. "It's mind boggling. But that's all about his base. He has no principles. None!"

No principles: a man without a conscience surrounded by unscrupulous and manipulating ministers.

They KN0W that he has never read the Bible.

They KN0W he only goes to church for publicity purposes.

They KN0W that he is a CINO (Christian in name only)

They KN0W that his "bible studies" with Paula White have been fictitious (she's very pretty - even tried selling a line of cosmetics - the possibility of his having an affair with her must have crossed their minds)

They KNOW all prayer meetings in the Oval Office are a sham. If he as ever read a passage from the Bible during the meetings, it would certainly have been heralded as words spoken through "The Chosen One."

"It's mind boggling." But perhaps not so much when you realize that their manipulations have had rewards: two conservative Supreme Court Justices and now:
