Check out their arrest records. Domestic abuse is one of the top reasons for arrests. Hardly like MLK. When they start kneeling in prayer for the nation like King did then they'll have my support.Now they are just over paid millionaires running around a field.

King was a pastor,Trump is not. I don't know whether MLK was an adulterer or not. Nor do I know where he stood with the Lord,whether he repented if he did step out on his marriage. I don't think that changes the fact of what he did for the country. We can fail and that doesn't mean everything we did was a failure. He seemed like a sincere man to me.

Trump is a president,totally different. What he said was a jerk move and if he was my husband he'd get a boot in the...when he got home. That being said I don't know where he stands with the Lord either.Check out the movie Darkest Hour,excellent movie. Churchill was wrong for the job on almost every level according to the elite, but his determination and tough personality helped England win the war.

What about Jimmy Carter?

He is a democrat, is he endorsing the far left wing agenda? or just left wing?

Who is the enemy? democrats? grays? women? atheists?

The enemy is those who would destroy freedom, personal and national.

Mainly Russia and czar Putin, at this point. With China at a close 2nd.

The Russians have seized power at many places in our government.

Confusion, lies, and an effort to disrupt our government.

When the people we have elected, are more loyal to the party, and the president, than they are to the people of this nation, and the freedoms which men and women have died for,

Then it is time to vote for change.

The attempt to shield Mr Trump, is also covering up the Russian spies and stooges, they do it for power and money.

Will our elected officials support Mr Trump and hide the Russians, to hold on to power, instead of doing the right thing and telling the truth, truth, truth. If we are a Christian nation, we must face the truth, and tell the truth.

If Mr Trump laundered money for the Russians, would you still support him?

I think MLK would be a bit shocked today to find out that we're back to hiring people based on skin color.

All glory be to God. But my favorite American is Rev Dr Martin Luther King Jr. People often fail to understand that what he was doing was for everyone. The below video portion of his speech makes this clear. It auto starts at 13:13 and one should listen to the 15:15 mark which completes that part.

If anyone is interested in listening, here is my Martin Luther King Jr radio show. It has short inspiring speech clips and upbeat rock and soul music. https://www.mixcloud.com/neopa/rev-dr-martin-luther-king-jr-music-and-speech-clip-show/

"No greater love can anyone have than to face death for their friends."
--Jesus of Nazareth

1) Friday of the Cross;
2) Saturday of the tomb;
3) Sunday of resurrection;

according to tourist here:
"The day itself holds no meaning, just part of a 3 day weekend for a few."

I do believe the day holds significance, but it can hardly be compared to the resurrection.

This statement doesn't even merit a response since it is so totally negative and one-sided, but, I will defend the man's honor. So, what about powerful public speaker and fearless civil rights leader who gave a nation hope and was willing to die for freedom for oppressed people?
Do you think that God looks at His servants and sees only negative? Probably over 2/3 of the people in the world have some prejudices towards other people, since it is ingrained in our mentality, even if we don't like to admit it. Most people fight against it and try to overcome these negative impulses by trying to understand other cultures by reaching out to them.

King David of Israel, the Judaic King was blessed by God, even though he made grievous errors, including adultery. He remained a King after he repented and Jesus was also known as the "Son of David." But, God said he had "shed too much blood," in battle and therefore, could not build His Temple. King Solomon, who apparently had concubines of many women, although it may be unknown what their duties were, was the wisest businessman in the world, and could have been called a "bigot," because of his zeal for the Jews, was still quoted by Jesus:

"Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?" (Luke 12:27-28)

He didn't say that King Solomon was a failure and a loser, a whore and a bigot, did He? So you are dishonoring people who were chosen by God to fulfill a courageous purpose, therefore, you are dishonoring God.
So, let's see, where has all of what those two kings stood for gotten us TODAY?!?

For something without merit, it sure seemed to get merited.
