I think your judgmental attitude toward someone who God loves as much as he loves you, getting that past Christ. In fact, people like you who are so pious and self-righteous he had many choice words for - such as vipers and snakes. He despised those who felt they were more holy than others. Is Trump a sinner? Yes, but, so are all of us. God can’t do anything with those who think they are holier-than-thou.
Thanks. I’ll watch the video. I have known from the beginning Trump hasn’t changed.
I will admit I will vote for the winner of the nomination because I would feel worse if Hillary won due to my sitting out.
That being said I want to stop Trump so we get the right guy.
Especially with the death of Scalia
And, not once since being elected has he even mentioned that wall. Not once. He didn’t even mention it when he announced his candidacy - so, he had no intention of building a wall - it was campaign rhetoric to get him to where he wanted to go - to the presidency.
No opinion other than I hate the phrase “jump the shark”.
+1
I am a life long conservative. My first choice along with my best friend since Kindergarten was Cruz, but as I found out more and more about him I started getting a bad feeling. When Sarah Palin who knows them both very well and personally, endorsed Trump it meant a lot to me. When Cruz’s minions here went into full on attack mode against Sarah Palin and her family it offended me deeply.
I have been personally involved in a lot of political races over the years; I have even made signs and knocked on doors. I have known a lot of politicians and have seen a lot of dirty tricks. I have researched this race thoroughly and my man is now Donald Trump. I respect that you don’t agree with that decision, but I believe in both my heart and mind that Trump will give this dying Republic its best chance.
I currently have eight grandchildren with more on the way. I want them to have as good a chance of prospering than I have had. I worry a lot more about their future than whether or not you will judge me as being less conservative than you. The results tonight from the daily survey show that people here support Trump over Cruz by more than 2 to 1. I believe that most here have thought long and hard about this decision and that they are still true conservatives.
I believe him. I also think he was paying his sister a compliment. Is that so strange?
Some of the greatest Christian warriors are those who converted late in life. Don’t pretend that Trump hasn’t been saying conservative things for years and years. He has. Watch his rallies. Listen to what he says now. If you want to vote for Cruz, fine. I don’t have to hate Cruz and I don’t. I just think that Cruz and the rest are a lesser brand of the same pale beer we’ve had. I want someone to go to Washington, kick A$$, and take names. Someone who is so egotistical that he will want to be the greatest president that ever lived. If I’m wrong I’m wrong. I believe him. I hope I’m right.
This election is 100% about the border and America first... Above all else! Nail that down first, THEN we can discuss what happened inside the country.
Without that, everything else is meaningless.
That means if you speak Spanish, thanks for playing but no thanks. If you have a track record as a globalist tool, no thanks. Deal with it.
No, you don’t. You are holding citizen Trump to the standard of politicians. He has never been elected, and therefore, you are judgmental rather than fair. If your high standards include voting for someone who is a liar, a cheat and fraud, and someone who is selling out this country, then I question your high standards.
You and Muhammed both share the fact that you falsely claim to speak for God.
Fair enough....your opinion....are you saying Trump owns brothels?
(Does geron L still post here)
You’re aping how he was about sexual stuff
But I’ll bite more
What about families that own distilleries or breweries or the distributorships?
Trump has lotsa branding in that area
Same sort of rejection by Christ and you by extension....I realize it’s a strawman but I’m trying to ascertain how far reaching this is?
It’s first condemnation I’ve seen here for that
Manufacturers of condoms?
Franklin Graham and Mike Huckabee and the Dallas southern Baptist preacher have all sullied themselves with Trump
Are they wrong?
He seems to have raised his kids decent enough...
And they’ve yet to find employees who hate him....that shoulda been easy
It was with less lascivious Romney
I’m not gonna argue with you but I did wish to know your denominational perspective
My own church....LARGE SBC.....Franklin TN ....is almost exclusively trump and Cruz about evenly on bumper stickers
Change is not always beneficial. Just look at the Dinosaurs.
There is a monumental shift in politics going on right now and Donald Trump is in the breach. Watch listen and learn, this type of revolt doesn’t come every generation.
Only express positive things about your candidate rather than negative things about the other. Let the candidates do what they want.
To some of us Trump is the hero and Cruz is the viable option.
Trump wants to charge the breach.
Cruz wants to continue to lay siege.
The rest just want to mill about smartly.
Give me a break. You haven’t a clue
Christ said “Go and sin no more”.
He did not say “Go and keep running your casino and selling flesh for men to get horny over”
Don’t take it up with me, take it up with God.
“””””Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.””””” Galatians 5:19-21
FR has jumped the shark, but not because of Trump.
Ted Cruz is a consistent Conservative. All the other conservatives had donors and they were still conservatives. Donald Trump has no big donors so he can’t be conservative. Conservative is very important if you want to keep things the same as they are.
Not just because of this latest upcoming looks-like-it-could-be-trainwreck we won't enjoy riding through...
I am not that crazy about it, but I knew it would gab the attention of people
Usually male real estate moguls do not spend time in PP business. I have yet to read Trump is in that business... But some in Congress sure are well connected to the business.
This kind of concern trolling is disingenuous in my opinion. It’s not about us supporting a leftist. If we thought he was a leftist we wouldn’t be supporting him. We have just drawn different conclusions than you about Trump’s leanings based on the evidence. Because Trump made a statement supporting this or that liberal position 10 years ago is not proof that he’s a liberal. It’s just one piece of evidence among many as to where he stands.
I acknowledge that Trump’s past, like most people’s is a mixed bag which doesn’t give a clear yes or no answer about his political leaning at first glance. But to speak about Trump being a leftist as established fact is dishonest. You’ve come to your conclusions based on the evidence and your judgment. We’ve come to ours, and our conclusions are not based on willful blindness, hero worship, or ignoring of the facts as you claim. We would take you more seriously if you acknowledged that our arguments that Trump is not a leftist, are reasonable even if you don’t agree with them.
There are reasonable arguments that could be made, that Trump is a leftist but in our opinion, once you examine things more closely, the contrary opinion, that Trump is a center right candidate who is motivated by patriotism and the desire to do right, is more reasonable and compelling. You’d do better to acknowledge that our position has a rational basis and at least acknowledge that, even if you ultimately disagree with our conclusions.
