There are two sides to every story, and you daily, hourly, relentlessly pound on one side.
I'm a conservative - absolutely no doubt about it - and I don't hate Trump, and things are in motion to deal with him without me pitching a wall-eyed fit against with every single post I post.
My job is to pray for him, and I do that quite often.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Now that you have used it to attack my character*, could you please take some time to point out how this article "supports Trump"?
For extra credit, which part(s) "denigrates" those who are "offended" by his "lawlessness and general trashy behavior**".
*but, it's OK, I've pretty well come to expect this
** I'm quite often offended by his trashy behavior, I'm still waiting for the evidence of his lawlessnessThe first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

There is no such thing as "Trump Derangement". What exists are people with integrity that are offended by Trumps behavior and actions to the point they are willing to say so.
The reality is that the issues I and others raise against Trump are legitimate issues. Yet you and others play the "TDS" game to give yourselves the excuse to ignore the problems. That is supporting Trump. It means that you are willing to dismiss legitimate issues on his behalf. The objective person does not dismiss real problems. Nor do the resort to calling people that raise those issues insane.Last edited by oxmixmudd; 11-07-2019, 08:19 AM.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

Sorry, that is supporting Trump.

Here are some things for you to totally ignore about I believe....
- Trump could not have become President without God allowing it. God is sovereign.
- Am I saying God "selected" Trump? Absolutely no way.
- It is a Biblical mandate for me to pray for those in authority over us -- I do, every day, often more than a couple times a day.
- There is an incredible unified effort among the liberals to get rid of Trump - I'm anxious for this to get into the open - open hearings, public testimony - and for the process to play out. They don't need me spending every waking moment repeating every bit of gossip, rumor, innuendo, accusation.... it's all out there, Jim.
So, look what's happening --- because I'm not as obsessed with Trump as you are, I'm a bad guy.
That's truly sad.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

That is not where I hail from, and you know it.
What I do "know" is that you don't seem to be the same person I've known from the past.
And your posts offer SUPPORT for Trump almost continuously - which is in conflict with your stated position on him.
Again....- Trump could not have become President without God allowing it. God is sovereign.
- Am I saying God "selected" Trump? Absolutely no way.
- It is a Biblical mandate for me to pray for those in authority over us -- I do, every day, often more than a couple times a day.

Allow me to mediate:
If you agree to stop quoting Rachael Maddow and Lawfare, then I will appeal to Cow Poke to stop quoting The Federalist.
Deal?Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God

I'm not going to report this false accusation of lying on your part, Jim, because, like I said, I believe that, in your head, you probably believe I'm a liar.
What absolutely amazes me is how you allow Satan to use Trump cause such division as to have you at war with the brethren. He's not worth it, and his day is coming.

Now - if you are actually concerned about 'peace' around here, you will stop doing that sort of thing.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
