Well played, Longmire. Well played.  :beer:

But, to seriously address something you said upthread - if Trump wins, he'll bow to the Saudi king too. Not because he's a crawler - that's one thing the arrogant SOB isn't! - but because if you don't bow to the jumped up nomad, you don't deal with Saudi, full stop. Trump knows that as well as anyone and better than most.  :shrug:

Trying to build something in Saudi Arabia is one thing as a developer/private citizen.

Going to negotiate an arrangement for their safety and the lives of the Royal Family as POTUS? 

Priceless!

Yes, indeed, one can find a number of sources that say the Christians who are most historically aligned to Christ, where Christianity started have had it very hard due to the Iraq invasion.


An invasion that Donald Trump supported when it began.  Christianity did not "start" in Iraq.  You know that.

Trump's admiration for what he calls "strong leaders" is based on the idea that he favors a strong, centralized government with him as the head of it. Not that he wants to gun down political dissenters. That's why he respects them

While that works in the business world, he is going to run into difficulty as president with that belief.
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

I dunno.....

Obama has the same idea about the Presidency and he's done a lot of damage.

Trump will too.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

Tom spams that anti-Bush meme wherever he goes just to try to make Trump look good by comparison.

It's an epic fail wherever he goes because Trump  DID support the invasion of Iraq, and it's irrelevant to the fact that he's a degenerate human being anyway.

Tom's neck deep in Trump Kool-Aid.  There's nothing reluctant about his support of the reprobate in the least.  I'm thinking it bugs him that Bush had character and Trump doesn't.  I see the Bush killed Christians spamming as desperation, just as his hatred for Cruz and demeaning Reagan is.

These people all know that Trump is a bad person.

   Mr. Putin, Help me build my wall!
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.
