You actually had a good start here at TBR.  But my gosh, this sort of stuff shows that you're just another internet loudmouth whose opinions are spinning out of control.  TOS fell prey to this sort of stuff.

Just a retread of the Ron Paul Mob Zombies of 2008.  They are still accusing Bush of crimes against humanity for going into A'stan and Iraq - many of them repeating the same crap the batshiite crazy old man did about the reason we were hit on 9-11 was because "we were over there".
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

Historically, the Christians most close to Jesus Christ himself.

http://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/how-the-iraq-war-became-a-war-on-christians/

And by the way, that was in response to some rhetoric posted above and phrased somewhat like that bitter remark.

Elections, well being of Christians around the world? The weekly standard a vehicle for neo-cons who supported that war? It seems related to me.

What does that mean?  You mean Christians who lived near where Jesus lived?  Israel is where Jesus lived, not Iraq.

The United States was united in going to war against Hussein (and Donald Trump was too).   As usual, when things started going badly, Democrats (including Trump) began wimping out.

This revisionist history in support of Donald Trump is really dopey.

Roy Moore's "spiritual warfare" is driving past a junior high without stopping.

Obama finally quit blaming Bush for everything so Trumpers picked up the ball and ran with it.

They've got to have something to explain, when it happens, his colossal failure to one of the most easily defeated democRATs ever.

I've been thinking that Trump could save face by faking a terminal illness and dropping out for health reasons.  Then only to be miraculously cured, on his death bed,  on or after Nov 9th.

Perhaps a bone spur on his foot...

He will continue to claim that the election is rigged and he wasn't treated fairly.  Trump has always left himself a way out. 
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

This one won't be close.  In addition to all the 2012 Obama states, Clinton will also win a handful of longtime Republican states, such as Georgia, Arizona, Missouri, North Carolina, and possibly even Utah an Montana.  With a vast Hispanic voter base and Trump's astronomical disapproval numbers, even Texas may be in play. 

Sad part is -- what was once a winnable election for the GOP has turned into what will likely be an epic trouncing of the worst and least electable GOP candidate in generations.  This monumentally disastrous nomination choice could not have come at a worse time.

If Trump were a real patriot, he'd acknowledge that this has gone wayyyy beyond what he believed would ever happen, and come to realize he's too far in over his head.  He would announce RIGHT NOW that he's stepping out of this campaign, and will work with Republican leaders to come to agreement on a viable replacement.

But... he won't.

That assumes that Trump is a patriot.  He is not.
 
It also assumes that he is rational enough to realize that he is going to lose when he is feeding on the adoration of his zombies at all his gatherings.

There's still time for Trump to step down, or be pressured to step down, before Labor Day and start of the fall campaign season.

He's hinting that he can loose.  He already said months ago if it looked like he was going to loose he would quit.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Its never the popular thing to bring up but Madeline Albright thought half a million starving children were worth the sanctions.  And we had the oil for rich people scandal.  While the people were supposed to be getting food Saddam and his rich buddies were scamming oil for food.  Saddam was ruling with a form of Sharia Law.  Killing his own citizens.  His goons are running ISIS now.

UN inspections, No Fly Zones..............

Oh and Trump admired Saddam.

There are posts right here on TBR saying countries were "better" under dictators. Which is insane.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

That depends on how you define "better". Everyone has their own point of view. Before IS and the Arab Spring, the dictators in many countries had kept them stable by keeping intertribal warfare to a minimum. Many see that as a plus. Christians were often tolerated, as under Assad, Saddam Hussein, and even Khadaffi, for the sake of stability, as long as they were not against the regime. In Egypt, that, too was the case, and attempts to impose strict Sharia were met with a Military Coup to depose Mursi, who was Muslim Brotherhood connected.

"Better" is relative, there, and depends on whether you are the one with the knife to your neck.

Of course it is possible he's working with his good friends the Clintons.

Imagine how handy it would be to an international real estate developer to own their very own US president.

Well, Trump primary voters, you had to have him.  Look what you've wrought.

But will they ever acknowledge it? No, I t will be the fault of RINOs, #NeverTrump, the media, McMullen, or even of the candidate himself (for tactical errors). It will never be the gullible mob that nominated him. Then they can go forth with a Trump party for 2020.

I agree with you.  They will be looking to shift blame in any direction, but they--and Trump---will have no part in it.  And I'll be very surprised if any sort of lesson is learned.

And don't forget the "GOPe" -- whatever the heck that is.  A boogey-man, mainly.

Gosar must not have kissed the ring...

At least that has been the pattern of selecting targets to attack. It is open season on returning Congressional Conservatives, too. (An 'establishment' wet dream...)
