But he isn't seeking to be a hatchet man! Instead he is seeking to be President of the USA, a diplomat, and political strategist the leader whose tactics in order to be successful must rise far above the  base chopping commentary of common criticism tha lower ups tend to fall into  for lack of having any vision on their part to be sharing and debating.

As example how much better had Trump just said ; in response "And good morning to you too. It is a privilege and pleasure to have been invited here  to speak to all  that are present. May I extend my best wishes to all that are here and are hearing us from all over this land. What a fine group you all are to be so interested in the future of the USA. Let's talk about that some.

I'd like to share of my  own vision for as soon as next year. Might we start with  how desparately  we need to know who is gaining access to the USA,  who is coming here and being put on medicaid as example, who might be here to do harm to citizens on the streets of the cities, especially the inner cities the core  that so needs to have a much better fuller opportunity to flourish".... 

 

So he needs to sound more like Clinton did when he cam to Decatur County Tenn and said;

No one will loose any jobs; two months later all 9 sewing factories ( had workers from 3 counties)were closed and moved to Mexico

I am an ex-Republican,

Hi, I understand that sentiment! I think I am still a Republican, but my party up and left; went somewhere I guess. I am still unable to comprehend how Johnson beat, slaughtered, Goldwater in 64.

Trump?, I researched him before 2016, I read his book, saw what he actually does in business to people, and screamed to myself snake snake! Contributed money  to Ben Carson. Yet come the fall election and Hilary calling us  a bucket of deplorables I had to,  even while knowing how awful a man he is, vote for him over her. I will not do that  again, never never never will I play the pick  the least of evils again. 

Best President in my lifetime, hmmm perhaps the quiet one that was not ever elected but had the guts to calm a very nervous nation, pardoning Nixon in order to  try to get the county to move along again, Gerald Ford.

Worst? Nixon of course. What a betrayal his wage and price controls were. His Vietnam "policies" got a lot of humans killed. That was a very bad time.

I do still like Ike! Fond memories of his demeanor and strength of purpose. Reagan, he crossed me up when he went back on his income tax pledge just as I was putting all I had, and then some, into a small apartment building venture. Cost me dearly in taxes for years. Trump also crossed me up with his Pacific rim trade policies that just devastated some industrial tenants, costing oh so much personal time and grief too. Augh!

Oh to have someone that shoots straight from the get go. I have high hope that RFK Jr. might be such a person. But regardless, I have survived, God having extended oh so much mercy everlasting upon me. Praise God, He is absolutely awesome.

No, no he has need to be as gracious as a flawed aged and failed President Biden has been  the past few days. He needs step aside, perhaps  endorse RFK Jr. even now.  For Trump is now just one  grumpy old man, with no  Biden to play against, and no  filters between his brain and  his own mouth. He has  no ability to play international level political chess anymore, perhaps he never did.

The world is in chaos, we do not need a management by chaos leader at this time.

Hi Jane,

It goes without saying there is only one race: humans, in the image of God. Satan and his minions work hard at deception and division, dividing the church and any division in humanity he can cause.

I am sure Trump knew he would be race-baited in that interview and prepared. Sometimes, Trump’s mouth is his worst enemy. I will say sometimes Trump says things we are thinking, but politically incorrect and ostracized if we discuss them on social media platforms these days.

Harris herself often brings up her ethnicity and flip-flops for political advantage.

Our nation needs revival, and the church has sat on its hands, inactive and ineffective in its mission to make converts and disciples.

On a secular note, we need to eliminate career politicians with term limits; many cannot make it in the secular world; many have never worked in the private sector or failed miserably and chose politics and government. But that is a pipe dream and will never happen.

Trump what a strange guy he is...and i think he is intentionally antagonistic and contentious ...he certainly 'gained respect' of the more difficult nations eg Iran...is my understanding. 

i find him fascinating and also the Argentina President who speaks his mind none of the PC BS. which is like a cancer 'funny world'

I really liked his diplomacy in his first term. e.g. how did things go with North Korea. 

And some people just need to have their butts handed to them. I really liked the way he handled that one. He nailed them on their disingenuousness and attempt to set him up.

But to re-iterate what I believe I've mentioned in the past, this is all entertainment for me. I think everything is going down very soon and am trying my best to watch it from afar. And it's been a long time coming. I nail the "beginning" on the 1960's, when we started taking kids seriously and even gave them the vote. 

And here we are. And technology is sealing the deal. I have little doubt they will try to off Trump again before the election. It's all they have. And the fact that their "plausible denial" seemed to work (at first) regarding the last attempt only empowers them. 

Fortunately for all of us, the Lord is in control.

I am not a leftist.  I am an ex-Republican, now an Independent and a moderate.

The best president in a century?  Sigh.

I give up.  I just slam give up.

I am also an ex-republican and an Independent. But I left them in Dubya's term when I realized we are dealing with a uniparty with two wings playing "good cop, bad cop" with us. But I didn't go to "moderate". I stayed on the conservative side and sort of say what Reagan said about the D party. i.e. I didn't leave them. They left me.

And I judge him by what he actually did. And you probably don't know this, but a LOT of people agree with me. Just like a lot of people agree with me in our belief that the 2020 election was stolen in broad daylight. It's amazing that they were able to cancel all dissent, but a lot of cancelling was going on thanks to the Chinavirus.

How can I NOT know?  I hear it everywhere I go!  Church, the grocery store, Facebook, Christian sites, and more.

I KNOW a lot of people completely ignore his beliefs and his mouth and don't care as long as he has that "R" next to his name in the voting booth.

This is interesting. The R next to his name is the one thing I DON'T like about him. I've seen a lot of yellow dog democrats and republicans. But my circles talk more about the candidate than what party they are a member of. 

I think the R party hates Trump as much as the D party does. It's one of the things I like about him. He fights the uniparty. And that is a good thing. At least IMO.

I lived in Seattle for 46 years and knew a lot of people that really hated the Republicans and would vote for the D candidate no matter what. It's one reason I left the area 13 years ago. 

It's a lot more even-handed here in Kentucky. Sure, there are still people that vote party line here as well, but not as many, IMO. At least in the area I live. OTOH, it seems that lately a lot of folks are proving they really would vote for Satan himself before they'd vote for Trump. It becomes apparent when you ask them why they would vote "for" Harris. It seems they just "hate Trump", and I think that is because they've been duped by the MSM. When you look at what he actually did as president, he can stand tall.

But, of course, nobody is perfect.
