    The Madness of King Donald

    "I want to say one more thing to Christian conservatives who think Trump is all that stands between us and the Devil in a Red Pantsuit. What the church in America suffers from, and indeed the general moral and spiritual crisis in this nation, is not political. Our politics are a manifestation of it, not the cause of it. Donald Trump is not a solution to the problem, he’s a symptom of it. Politics will not fix what is broken within us. True, a Clinton presidency will make the conditions under which we can live and minister towards healing what is broken in America more difficult. Much more difficult. But here’s the thing: so will a Trump presidency, only in different ways, and in ways much harder to anticipate. Vote Trump if you must, but don’t fool yourself about what he is going to do for us."

    Trump is an immoral man. No question. However, absolute statements about what his presidency will look like severely corrupt or otherwise are foolish. I will not vote for him based on the unknown. We cannot know what his presidency will look like.

    We already know what a Hillary presidency will look like. It'll look a lot like this election cycle.

    Scandals, media censorship, media propaganda, bullying and smearing opponents, congress hearings, lawlessness, national security thrown to the wind, IRS audits of conservative groups, more debt, less security, more racial division and riots, persecution of Christians, PC social justice warrior culture, globalization, consolidation of power into the executive, more transfers of wealth to the ultra rich, more jobs lost, lower wages, devalued currency, mass immigration from third world countries, liberal supreme court, bigger welfare state, more intrusive government, destruction of language, and of course everybody's favorites more wars, more death and more destruction. steady decay of the inner cities, increase in violent crime . . . yadda yadda yadda.

    Oh yeah I almost forgot more gun control and mass shootings in gun free zones. And terror attacks, yeah terror attacks can't leave those out gonna need those to scare Americans into giving up more freedoms for security that never seems to stop the terrorists attacks.

    I'm so ready for a change. But ya know Donald Trump does say and do some dumb things.

    I have a question for you fellas, how long after you accepted Christ as your savior did it take you to become perfected. I'm just wondering because I accepted Christ as my personal savior 2/15/1975 and the Lord is still working on me.

    Maybe I started out more immoral than you guys?

    Don't forget - more sanctuary cities where murderers can kill innocent people and get away with it.

    Yeah we definitely can't do without those.

    This thread reminds me of that TV commercial "The settlers", ever see it?



    Maw Paw why can we have a better safer life? Because we're settlers and that's what we do we settle!

    We can have a fairly good picture of what a Trump presidency would look like. Look at his campaign, changing direction daily, numerous lies being exposed, temper tantrums, pouting, personal attacks on other leaders. It is not a presidential picture. Trump would be a Hugo Chavez for the US and we see what Chavez did to Venezuela.

    Look at his life. He has been dishonest, unfaithful, a liar, a cheat ... this list could go on and on. There is no way he is prepared to be a good president. A disaster, yes, but good, no.

    I don't know why his admirers have such a difficult time understanding that stepping into the Oval Office does not change one's character, habits or temperament. Trump has been showing us how he will attempt to lead for more than a year now.

    He's had three campaign managers that have all tried to get him to tone down his rhetoric, use a teleprompter, don't post inflammatory tweets, etc. and he keeps on going back to being his uncouth self. Nothing will change.

    Hillary has been showing us her character, habits and temperament and how she has lead for decades.

    [​IMG]

    Hillary Clinton hired private security (thugs) to threaten and intimidate Bill Clinton's girlfriends and rape victims into silence. The only thing that will change with Hillary in the WH is she'll have the DOJ the FBI the IRS the DHS the NSA and the courts to threaten and intimidate her opponents into silence.

    Pretty much. But he's got an R after his name and his name isn't Hillary. That's all that matters to some.

    Marxism (socialism, crony capitalism) is what ruined Venezuela. Trump is a lot of things but he is no Marxists and he does not support socialism.

    You are right. Trump is not a Socalist. He is not a Communist. He is not a Capitalist. He is a Me-ist. It is all about "Me", Trump and nothing else.
