Do you mean that he was wrong to bring prices down, and make America a Nation that other countries once again look up to instead of laugh at after the Obozo years, give us the lowest unemployment in decades, the lowest EVER Black unemployment?
Is that what you meant when you said, " No one in their right mind has the audacity to do what Trump has done so really, he may have been just what the extreme right needed."
I don't think it has anything to do with the extreme right, personally, I believe it's what America needed! Of course, THAT isn't what the Democratic Party wants, because they care not about AMERICA OR AMERICANS! They only want to destroy this Nation and make it a 3rd World shithole like Venezuala, which USED to be a thriving and up-and-coming Nation! THEY espoused Socialism and their Nation and their political system instantly turned to shit!
Yep, SOCIALISM is just what we DON'T NEED!

That's such a crock of BS. Passive-aggression in it's creepiest form. "We're brain washing you because we love you - it's for your own good." Gross! The only reason why I can still consider myself a Christian is because I am able to believe that creeps like you aren't.


Have you ever tried to edit Wikipedia? Of course you haven't - if you have you would know that the peer-review process is rigorous and you actually have to earn the right to edit. Stop lying about sh*t you don't even know about.

I never said he did. I said he *tried* but a federal judge interfered and said he can't. I don't know how you missed that part but there goes your "quick example".


About what? The ban on Muslims that he WANTED to do, or the compromise the courts LET him do?


No, it wasn't a side issue, it was a net gain. He wasn't allowed to ban all Muslims so he settled for a policy that let him ban as many Muslims as possible under the guise of security.


Actually, there is... bad guys do bad things. It's pretty simple. So unless there is proof that a Muslim did something bad he should be treated like anyone else. Is there risk involved? Yes. But that's the cost of living in a free land, you have to have the courage for it. I guess that's something you wouldn't know much about.


Says the dope that based his entire argument on his own misunderstanding of what I said. LOL

Well, we've seen how lockstep the Republicans in Congress have become so they probably will be rubber-stamp-ready but I don't know where the orders will come from. I'm pretty sure McConnell was in virtual control of the Trump Administration and I'm not sure if DeSantis has what it takes to out maneuver a Republican senate either. I can see either of them on a congressional leash.

But the front that I've been paying more attention to lately, just like everyone else, is the Judicial side. As you say, the "Freedom" Caucus has made some bold statements recently. Indeed, this is the one job that I know Trump did for McConnell, destroying the traditional balance in the Supreme Court with a 6-3 conservative advantage.

The Judicial Branch is the farthest removed from our democracy making it the most likely beachhead for an authoritarian assault. The Federalist Society has their hands DEEP in that doo-doo. They're the one's that kept handing Trump the list.

Mitch and Donny -
Mitch : "OK, Donny do you have the list?"
Donny: "Yes, but it's very long. It's a tremendous list and the paper is very white."
Mitch: "It's upside down."
Donny: "Oh."
Mitch: "Now listen, this one here - HE's the one you're going to appoint, remember?"
Donny: "THEN I get in the club?"
Mitch: "Then you get in the club." - (wink, wink and a thumbs up to Thomas.)

What's interesting is that Trump's appointees to the SCOTUS have all ruled against his interests on several occasions. I think they have shown themselves to be aligned with something other than Trump making it even further removed from our democracy.

The Judiciary might be Trump’s most damaging legacy.

In fact, it seems conceivable possible that Cannon sees Trump as still the rightful president, since she has accorded him privileges that no other person under investigation for these crimes would ever get. If she's a true-blue Trump supporter, she may even believe that he's going to be "reinstated." Millions of his followers do. How else can we understand why Cannon would think that a man who is effectively a disgruntled former federal employee who walked out the door with classified documents and refuses to give them back should get a special master to determine whether some bizarre interpretation of executive privilege might entitle him to keep them?

Concerning all those classified documents!……….Do you know where Obama, Clinton, and both Bushes kept theirs after they left office? Do you know what the President Records Act is and why an Obama appointed judge issued it?….……It seems that Clinton kept classified tapes in his sock drawer! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

You won’t find this information on Rawstory! LOL!

BORING!!!

That is your job. I am on the Right. You are on the Left. If you have objections about what we on the Right say, call us out. I keep saying this, I really do not have a problem with what anyone on OPP says, or what they want to push. My problem is people on OPP constantly throwing all kinds of crap at the wall just to see what will stick.

Who knows what is true or false ? There is nobody here who is the designated Truth Sultan, who says what is a lie. The only process we have to go on is to discuss what ever topics and thoughts are posted. That means you or I or anyone says something. Then someone will either agree with it or attack it. Part of attacking it is to ask for evidence supporting the point that was made.

I assume all of us believe everything we post, but maybe that is a stupid assumption. If we believe in our posts, why wouldn't we defend them passionately ? When you go after me and my crap, I am always ready for you. Why aren't you are prepared for me to question your statements ? Don't you believe what you say ?

And democrats are not 'lock-step'?

Hypocrisy at it's leftist best......

So I take it that you HAVE tried to edit Wikipedia, since you know all about it. And peer review is laughable, because a majority believes in something does not make it factual or true or accurate, whether we are talking about
Covid or Trump or Biden or the Earth being flat or Darwinism.

I get sick of the constant bullshit you dish out and it reached a boiling point. I told you that I stumble. It doesn't mean that I don't love you any more. I love you so much Riley that I'll share this yet again. I have been commanded by God to post this at this time that you may read it and be saved:

Paul wrote this for himself but it applies to me. I am committed to the gospel so that "I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel."

And for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel. Ephesians 6:19

And what easier way than the “Romans Road,” a simple way to present the gospel using verses from Romans. It is a complete description of the fundamentals and foundations of Christianity: sinful nature of all men in the eyes of God, justification by faith in Jesus Christ, freedom from sin, and victory in Christ, judgment, spiritual growth, and godly living.

I’m a “good person” do I really need salvation?
I think that almost all people will categorize themselves as “good” and don’t understand their need for salvation.

For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. Romans 3:23

As the Scriptures say, No one is righteous—not even one. Romans 3:10

When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. Romans 5:12

I’m not a really bad person, is my sin really that bad?
Almost everyone considers themselves to be “relatively” better (less bad, less sinful, and less depraved) than others and so forgive themselves for their “relatively” minor sins.

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23

I’m too bad to be saved, how can there be any hope for me?
Those, who don’t consider themselves better than others, often consider themselves to have so many sins stacked up on their side of the scale, that there’s no hope for them.

But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. Romans 5:8

Then if I’m a sinner destined for death, how can I be saved? The concept of salvation by faith is alien to our human nature, we want to do something to earn our salvation, but the task is too great for us, we need divine intervention.

And that message is the very message about faith that we preach:

If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved. Romans 10:9-10

Once you do this, you may ask, did God accept me?
After a person has come to Jesus Christ for their personal soul salvation, it is extremely common for them to doubt their salvation, to doubt that God will keep his promise, that they are safe in Christ.

As the Scriptures tell us, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.” Jew and Gentile are the same in this respect. They have the same Lord, who gives generously to all who call on him. For “Everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved.” Romans 10:11-13

Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us. Romans 5:1

So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. Romans 8:1

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39

What should I do now?
The new child of God is embarking on the most exciting journey of their life, where should they start, and what should they do?

For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?” Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. (Romans 10:17)

Start by asking the Holy Spirit to lead you through the Bible (WORD), daily prayer (PRAYER) and helping you to find a Bible believing church (FELLOWSHIP) – Acts 2:42.

You can PM also if you feel so inclined.
