I mean your country, not mine. 😀
The last thing we want is a president who is a people pleaser. He has to make difficult decisions and there will always be people who are not happy with those decisions. He and his party will be held accountable for those decisions and policies. So he will definitely have counselors and advisors, but you can't govern based on polls. That was JFK's point in his book "Profiles in Courage".

Great generals like Patton and MacArthur were prima donnas, arrogant, put their foot in their mouth, and did things everyone else thought were stupid and crazy. The landing at Inchon being a great example. But they did what no one else could do and that is why we now view them as great generals.

MacArthur was lambasted for saying we should go into China which had a nuclear weapon at that time. But given the choice between a nuclear war at the time of MacArthur and one today I think we all would have preferred to have listened to MacArthur.

This is no hate speech, this is reality. They would not saying so openly. They have connection to the Neonazi Szene. But, not all of them this is true.
And again i am no lefti. Ore call you everyone lefti?
What you call “reality”, others call lies. But that doesn’t change the fact that you calling them Nazis is hate speech, and in Germany you should be jailed, as you do not have freedom of speech to call someone a Nazi.

Unless you believe that only YOU, and those that think like you, should be allowed to engage in hate speech, but no one else can.

Chump: "Fight, fight, fight."

Jesus: "My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight,"

I never thought I'd live to see the depths to which "Christianity" has sunk.

What a dumb comment. TRUMP said fight after he had been shot at. Jesus was talking about spiritual things, Trump was talking politics. A four yr old could tell the difference. smh

First, I have not called the AFD Nazis. I said they are Nazi like. They have connections to the Neonazi Szene. Second since this week the AFD is offical seen as rightextrem. And this is against the german constitution.
Third, to call someone what he is agreeing with is no hate speech.
And so long they are not in the Position to rule, they will not openly say, what they really think.
Its an antidemocratig system!

Without to Reunion the country ? With destroying the trade? How this will work?
Did Lincoln unite the country? If you have a major issue like slavery you have to deal with that, it will destroy the country, and no doubt not everyone will be happy. If you have cancer you don't simply pretend everything is fine, you have to treat that cancer first.

I was raised under the brethren teaching. It came through Watchman Nee, but his teaching was all based on JN Darby.

Also I always considered the Menonites to be modern day sons of Jonadab -- the house of the Rechabites.
Mennonites are neither of those. We trace our beginnings to the radical reformation. At that time we were mocked as “Anabaptist”. The term means “rebaptiser”. The Lutherans, Catholics and Reformed churches all persecuted us because we did not practice infant baptism.

Well then, for whom Mr. Trump promissed a golden age?
Mr. Trump‘s goal is to cut as many federal programs and agencies as possible. The reason he wants to do this is he wants to give huge tax breaks to the very wealthy.
Personally, I don’t believe President Trump is a Christian. I saw an interview he did with a news person. The news person was trying to get Trump to say that he needed forgiveness for something. Trump said he had never felt the need for forgiveness. He always did what he thought was right. How could one accept Christ as Lord and Savior without asking God for forgiveness?

I meant as a shadow or type.
