   There's plenty to criticize about Donald Trump - but his enemies are the enemies of the nation.   

lol. He and they are close to identical.

The media doesn't run the country.



The pretty much do.   For years i've been trying to make people aware of just how much the Media manipulates elections by the way they present the "news"  to the public.   


As Peter Jennings once said.   "We don't tell people what to think,   we tell them what to think about."   


Same thing in the long run.

I will never lift a finger or utter a single word here or anywhere else if I thought it would encourage, support or otherwise help the establishment, Deep State or whatever you want to call it, overthrow the results of the past election.

My contempt for it far far surpasses anything animosity I have for Donald Trump. Trump may be a self obsessed buffoon or whatever, but he's not trying to enslave me, or dead set on policies that endanger my safety nor the well being of me and my family.



This is my thinking too.

No, no no, no.  I never bought the lie that we had to vote for Trump if we were to have a country left.  I do not buy the lie that we must stand behind Trump if we are to have a country left.  I do not buy the lie that we must wait until 2024 before debating or rendering judgment on the fruits of whether or not Trump has served in the interests of liberty and the Constitution.

That is a dangerous trap I will not walk into.

Salvation for the country does not rest in fealty to a man or a party.

We are either governed by foundational principles in the fear of The Lord, or we will be ruled by the tyranny of men.

Those foundational principles ARE already under attack by the Left, who seek to impose the tyranny you claim to feat. What do you think the recounts were? Or the efforts to get the electoral college members to not vote Trump?

Have you not been watching what the Left is doing?

Fully realizing who Trump is since before the primaries and having (for the first time in my life) given a significant amount of money to a campaign, Ted Cruz's, personally I will never lift a finger or utter a single word here or anywhere else if I thought it would encourage, support or otherwise help the establishment, Deep State or whatever you want to call it, overthrow the results of the past election.

My sentiments exactly.   Trump's not the issue -  the foundation upon which our Republic rests is at stake.   For over 200 years, we have seen a peaceful transition of power girded by respect for the will of the people as expressed in free and fair elections.    There's plenty to criticize about Donald Trump - but his enemies are the enemies of the nation.   

I believe this is by far the best post I have ever seen you make @Jazzhead   :flag: 

God bless you for it.   :whistle:

Absolutely right, but you are not going to fix it with a NY liberal, crony capitalism, and national socialism.

Your position wholly ignores that 'the Left' includes all but a handful of the GOP and Trump himself.

Be careful what you wish for.
At the point at which a people no longer can be even remotely considered to be keeping His commandments, His 'use of anyone' can be a painful thing.

I would humbly assert that one should pray harder for national repentance before expecting the Hand of YHWH to move things in a more beneficial direction.

Explicitly true Roamer, but this people do not want to hear that.

They have invested all their hopes, faith and possible solutions into men and their corrupted institutions.

Which guarantees they will never achieve what they think they want to accomplish  and will select worse, and worse people of character to carry their torch for them as something just a little better than the other thing that they find worse.

And people wonder how it is we have slid so far Left that even Republicans are spouting Leftist talking points?
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

God has always given His wayward people who have rejected Him for what they desire.

God takes Ownership, but the punishment itself is always self-inflicted.

God is not going to save us from the consequences we have sown for ourselves, especially when the solutions being sought do not involve Him, repentance or even shame for what we have done.

Yep. America has a trip to the woodshed in her near future...

The only thing in my experience that might just stop the old man when that time has come, is truthful confession, utter and honest repentance, and a promise to adhere to what the old man told you...

Probably you will go to the woodshed anyway, but the whippin' you deserve will have some mercy.

Is he wrong? I've never seen anything like it. It's a full-fledged sabotage from the DNC, the MSM, and most disgustingly, traitorous RINOs.

@LetsTalk

You forgot Trump himself, who steps on his...necktie every time he turns around and seems to thrive on the resulting chaos and drama.

Trump supporters would serve the country, and the president, better if they would stop enabling his behavior.

@CatherineofAragon I don't think so much that they enable it so much as they revel in it.

Honestly, it fascinates me that you're still this angry and bitter that people didn't vote the way you deemed appropriate.

Guess I should have put a sarcasm tag on the post.  I thought the  :whistle: would have been enough.
