TRUMP - Some people think......... How do you feel?

[Ritafee]

Picked up his cross and beat people over the head with it?

I deserved that ... I haven't mastered my lines yet in this part to play that I am auditioning for during the final act but my heart is in it to win it.

My basic assumption is that the agenda of Trump contradicts the agenda of Jesus.

Is it really just Trump, though? Does that not really apply to most secular politics today with some rare exceptions? Trump is a very egregious case, but in my experience almost any politician who cites Jesus tends to be using him for marketing purposes, not because his policies in any way reflect a Christ-like outlook.

Agreement on this. I use Trump as an example of the corruption now at play in the way of Western social economies. My basic insight indicates that democracy has been trumped by oligarchies (corporate entities). These oligarchies are now set to be displaced by tyranny.

Here is a 7 min video -----to believe or not to believe ???????

How a Bible prophecy shapes Trump's foreign policy​

12 Feb 2020
For an influential group of American Christians, support for Israel -- and hatred of Iran -- are based in a biblical prophecy. When President Trump authorized the drone strike that killed the powerful Iranian general Qasem Soleimani, he wasn't just flexing America's muscle in the Middle East. He was also acting on the advice of a politically powerful group of evangelical Christians who believe that the US and Israel are part of the Bible's plan to bring about the second coming of Jesus. Once considered a fringe element of the religious right, evangelical Christian Zionists are playing an increasingly visible role in Republican politics. Today, unprecedented access to the Trump administration has given them an opportunity to reshape the Middle East.

 

[GeoFee]

As I see it this is the intention of Biblical prophecy.

“Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.” Isaiah 1:17

“He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?” Micah 6:8

And yet out complacency is being replaced by awareness.

Can you provide some evidence of our change from complacency to awareness?

There has always been awareness in a certain segment of society. The question is whether that awareness is spreading more widely. Is "Dump Trump" awareness or just the usual shifting sands of politics?

I say​

Just what will happen if Biden gets in ----4 min video -----will China have free reign in the USA ----

MUST WATCH: President Trump plays a DEVASTATING video for Joe Biden in​

I got about a minute and a half in, and I'm not seeing a problem, unsafe. China is a sovereign nation, just like the U.S. and Canada. We're all entitled, as countries, to have our elected leaders negotiate various kinds of trade relationships with other countries.

I know there's this kneejerk reaction that basically says "The Chinese are coming", and we all scream in fright, or something. The FACT is that China has surpassed the U.S. as an economic superpower, the U.S. have seen their ass over it, and they don't like the smell.

Can you moderate your use of bold and caps, please? Unless there's truly something that you need draw attention to. You didn't even bother explaining the premise of the video, which is just plain old xenophobic fear mongering, trying to drive further wedges between Americans.

Looking south I see an historically large voter turnout at the polls.
People are listening and scrutinizing what politicians are saying and not saying more than ever.

 

[BetteTheRed]

I will be very interested in reading % of eligible voters stats for this election compared to others, especially in "after one-term" presidencies, like Obama's win in 2012.

It is so absolutely typical of you that you ignore the substantial part of my post - the meat, the argument, and choose to respond to a simple request to moderate the unnecessary emotionality conveyed by your mis-use of font tools...
