www.washingtonexaminer.com/washington-secrets/trumps-list-289-accomplishments-in-just-20-months-relentless-promise-keepingI know the never Trumpers on this board are driven crazy by statements like that but I believe history will prove it. Speed of workStuff doneAll under adverse conditions.I am not talking about the best in terms of political correctness…Jimmy Carter. Or the best at compromising president…Bill Clinton. Or the best conservative communicator/diplomat who got lots of things done…Ronald Reagan.
Of course you Know all the economy successes was set up by the previous president. Or that is what I have heard.I am disappointed in our Presidents ability to rally compromise between the two parties. BUT no president in history has had a firestorm of resentment as Trump has had. True he has brought a lot on himself with his mouth, but congress is supposed to over look personalities and do what is best for our country. Presently we have a good economy and I know it is good for our local church, I assume it has helped most churches.But if you don’t like the man, you can see NO GOOD in anything he has done. He is not my favorite personality, I am not even sure I will vote for him again but I will be one of the first to say he has brought the country to a point we may recover some of our manufacturing jobs and be a life saver for our country. BUT at times me makes me mad as FIRE! ________________Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

I like Ike!
I like Ike!
There is no age limit here, that has been proven over and over again. ( I am part of that ‘Me too’ group. hahaah (second childhood)________________Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/
I was an Adlai boy myself, but I sure liked Ike’s slogans much better. ‘I like Ike’ and ‘Clean house with Ike and Dick________________Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

Ignore the self-righteous snobbery of some on here. They are in denial as to the dire situation our country is in. They also don’t get that what gives Trump his popularity is that he actually acknowledges the dangers besetting us and fights hard to correct them, though clumsily at times. Guys like McCain, Bush, Kasich, and Romney sat by and did nothing while the USA was being raped________________
Not sure he’s the best, but there are a lot of things that he is the best at1. Best at showing the extremity that establishment politicians are willing to go to in order to preserve their power.2. Best at pointing out the extreme radical agenda of our national media and its owners3. Best at showing just how little past Republicans were willing to do about abortion when you see how easy they had it compared to the resistance Trump has faced.4. Best at proving globalism-apologists wrong about what the American economy is capable of.

Guys like McCain, Bush, Kasich, and Romney sat by and did nothing while the USA was being raped. I’ve just been sitting on the sidelines for a while, enjoying most of the discussions. While I have changed my ways, I couldn’t help noticing something that I feel uncomfortable with.I would just like to come to a place like ACTS and not see a reference to Rape as an expression to anything other than rape. If that is the subject, cool. But I really wish things could be put a different way.Resident, you are a very smart person, and I know you can come up with something else to compare things to.
I hear ya Krista, but I honestly didn’t think of that definition when I read his post. I guess its because I read a lot of old literature, things like the rape of the city, or the rape of the treasure came to my mind first. Maybe RS meant it in the sexual-violence definition, but I didn’t take it that way. Not trying to speak for him, just my thought on the subject. (btw, I applaud Krista 2.0, nicely done!)rape ˈrÄp Definition of rape (Entry 1 of 4)1 : unlawful sexual activity and usually sexual intercourse carried out forcibly or under threat of injury against a person’s will or with a person who is beneath a certain age or incapable of valid consent because of mental illness, mental deficiency, intoxication, unconsciousness, or deception— compare SEXUAL ASSAULT, STATUTORY RAPE
I’m sure he didn’t mean it from a sexual standpoint. It’s just that for some, there could be a different way of expressing it. I’m not a PC person, but that is one word I would like to see used only when dealing with R**E.

No No. Not meanwhile. I made a simple request to use a different word than you were using.
I’m going to agree with Krista here.There is no reason to use that word regarding politics…certainly not on a Christian board.Pillage would be better________________
No No. Not meanwhile. I made a simple request to use a different word than you were using. I realize I don’t post here anymore, but there as a lot of those who enjoy reading some of the posts, who may not like to see that word. It was a simple request and it doesn’t need a meanwhile, as though my point is not a valid point The meanwhile comment was not aimed at you, Krista. I was simply adding something new to the thread________________
Oh for Pete’s sake.I guess nobody has ever heard of the book The Rape Of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust Of World War II by Iris Chang, or The Rape of a Nation by Jimmy Swaggart, or The Rape Of The Mind: The Psychology Of Thought Control, Menticide And Brainwashing by Joost Abraham Maurits Meerloo, or Conspiracy to Rape America by Ben R. Games PhD., or Asking for It: The Alarming Rise of Rape Culture – and What We Can Do About It by Kate Harding, Erin Bennett, or SURVIVAL BEYOND BELIEF: THE RAPE OF A NATION by Augustine Chea.Are all these book titles inappropriate to mention on this sight?I will say it again, the left-wing is raping this nation, in the context portrayed in the titles of the books listed previously________________
Thanks UncleJD. My intent was very obvious to reasonable people like yourself. I’m used to those who love to pile on. NBF would agree with Satan over me________________
