taken out of context? By the way, how often does this "Christian" go to church?
probably but he gives them endless fuel to actually influence middle of the road voters who Trump is trying to win over. The previous never trumpers who are actually considering voting for him.
As a Christian myself, if he's Christian or not won't impact my vote. I hope he is and more people are saved than not because I want that for them but we all make personal choices. Furthermore, some of the best Christians I know haven't been to any church in years. Attending church is not any form of measurement I care about.
Wish in one hand and…..
while true, people can listen to his actual clips and say "yes he actually did say that". now what he means is open to interpretation but why say questionable things on camera when you don't need give the left media any addiitonal fuel
Both parties are controlled by the extremes who apply purity litmus tests. It's a problem.
no doubt. Trump is the opposite of the establishment swamp which is why every 3 letter agency and instution constantly attacks him
I agree but I'm talking more about attacks from within the party. For example, the far right demands that only their preferred VP choice be selected by Trump. The far left demands unfettered abortion and elimination of the 2A. Neither side is open to any discussion. But 80-85% of the country are more open than the far right and more conservative than the far left. Recently, the Ds have been better about sticking together but that appears to be changing as the country seems to believe we've gone too far left.
I get what you are saying, but if you expect to lead your country they need to understand what you are saying.
If he was capable of acting like a halfway normal human being he'd still be president.
No, watch the video and understand who he is talking to and it's pretty clear.
This coming from the guy who voted for Biden and Kamala. Lmao.
You almost had me riled up. Then I realized you have to be trolling. Because nobody with two eyes, one bung-hole, and half sense would talk about Trump, and ignore Kamala's incoherent ramblings.
That's true but what he is really saying isn't that hard to decipher and if 3/4 of the media and 1/2 of the grifters in DC didn't take things out of context in order to try to mislead or simply make stories up, we'd all be better off. For example, I think everyone can agree that the media has overblown the Trump/dictator story. The man was speaking about XOs issued on day one and it wasn't really a bigger story. However, it made for good entertainment and pulled viewers so the TDS media ran with the line while the pro Trump media played it up to their audience as well.
Alternative theory - goverment is filled with thousands of good middle class citizens who perform their job every day regardless of the letter beside the President. These people are as good at their job as you are at yours...and they know Trump is clown.
The majority of his cabinet, the highly vetted people that Trump hand-picked to report directly to him, refuse to endorse him now and some are quite loud in their warnings about what a threat Trump is. That’s how bad he is.
@MRDAWG - I listened to the snippets of the speech for the 1st time this morning after reading the uproar. I can't say for 100% what he meant but the explanation by @oldmandawg seems reasonable. The line itself seems a little odd but i picked up nothing before or after the line to make it nefarious or of bad intent. Trump has said some crazy stuff before and have no issues with him being called out for it, but this appears to be rambling in a speech where words and overall intent can be stretched to meet an agenda.
"Both of Donald Trump’s defense secretaries have warned in no uncertain terms about how dangerous he is, with one recently calling him a “threat to democracy.” One of his attorneys general has called the criminal evidence against him “damning” and warned that he would abuse his power. A chief of staff keeps confirming the ugliest anonymously sourced reports about him. And now his vice president has said he can’t possibly endorse him."
Interesting you bring up the cabinet not supporting him, although i don't think its the majority there were certainly too many. Also interesting is some that I respect (Pompeop, Mnuchin, Barr) are still voting for him. Regardless, that is not my point of comparison.
The 3 letter agencies are filled with good honest people. The leadership at the top is corrupt & everyone is just following orders.
You can call Trump a clown but America was a helluva better for actual Americans under Trump than it is now after 3.5 years of the Biden Harris clown show
No matter how much you repeat the lie...it's still just that, a lie.

I wasn't going to respond because this won't go anywhere, but decided maybe you don't realize what you are doing (and it's too common here).
Have you been to the grocery store later? Have you noticed the situation at the border? Have you noticed 2 proxy wars with the potential for China to bubble up any moment? Have you noticed failing recruitment goals & morale in the military?No matter how much you repeat the lie...it's still just that, a lie.
"But the economic numbers expose a far more complicated reality during Trump’s time in the White House. His tax cuts never delivered the promised growth. His budget deficits surged and then stayed relatively high under Biden. His tariffs and trade deals never brought back all of the lost factory jobs.
And there was the pandemic, an event that caused historic job losses for which Trump accepts no responsibility as well as low inflation — for which Trump takes full credit."
Many remember solid economy under Trump, but his record also full of tax cut hype, debt and disease
Numbers show that the economy during Donald Trump’s presidency has never lived up to his own hype. But polling shows Americans are more confident about his economic leadership than that of President Joe Biden.
Some of the negative vibes are intentional misrepresentation and / or intentional manipulatied comments of Trump by media to sway public opinion, I would say one mentioned here is a great example. Not as sinister at the media made Trump’s Charlestville comment but in the same area code. Trump says enough crazy stuff for sure, but don’t think this is one of them.
I don't know if that is the right question and exactly what you mean by expectations so let me try a definition. Expectations are what I hope the President will do or accomplish. First let me state that the President is not support to have the same powers as the head of a company because many things need to be accomplished by Congress. A main expectation is that we do something about the immigrant situation which is not only those now coming over the border and those that have come in recent years, but also those that came before and during Trump's Presidency. But this is one of the items that Congress doesn't want to deal with. I also have an expectation that the President will put the country above themselves. Parts of our economy depend on immigrants and this seems to be ignored sometimes. While the economy has been a problem so many things have effected this so I don't have an expectation of a simple solution. The country has been in worst situation before and manages to recover and seems to be on track. I would love to see a President bring the country closer together but that's just not happening in the next four years. I also have an expectation that either candidate can be a leader in times of crisis. Someone that the majority of the country thinks is getting us through whatever crisis we might have. So I expect the same of both.
