After listening to Newsmax and NPR this morning I wondered if they were on the same planet?

Christians need to distance themselves as far as possible from the groups that hijack the DC rally. JC, SJ we agree 100% on that!!!!

Speeches like Trumps last one and ones I've heard on the other side need to stop. In fact I would like to see Trump, Pelosi, Waters and a few more retired based on their statements.

I hate to see Trumps effort to stop offshoring, establish a good imagration system, better wages for labor and his support for life go in flames.

I'm praying for our country. We have many, many issues. :cry:

Joe Biden is not the answer, but I will not act like the Democrats have the past 4 years, during his term.

Trump did his best, finally lost his temper. Pence has stood strong.

Even cspan is falling prey. They just had one tweet his true bias and had to apologize.

Something else to watch, Presdent Obama purged military leadership last round. Sounds like it will be rank in file this time.

You have wonder how long the Libertys, Hillsdales and BYUs last. :cry:

I worry for Liberty for different reasons. Even at orientation this morning, they’re still talking about the fear of becoming “communistic,” as if that’s the biggest threat to Liberty losing gospel focus. Misplaced priorities. Prevo is talking about how he was chosen “to keep Liberty on mission.” Never a mention of how he let it get away from the mission under JR in the first place. Still no signs of accountability or repentance. I worry that a bad culture will rot the place from within before anyone from the outside has a chance to touch it.

Prevo held a summit of Trump supporters yesterday where they focused on politics more than the Gospel. They were more concerned with not becoming "liberal" than keeping the focus on Jesus and the Gospel.

Yikes. Somewhere along the way, when Liberty folks talked about not becoming liberal, it changed from theologically to politically. Or maybe I’m naive to have thought it was ever about the former.

It’s a shame to hear the acting president decry an idol that Liberty University has never been in danger of embracing while holding his own idol out for everyone to see.

Next time we pick a president, no more Jerrys. That name has bad juju.

I wonder who wrote his speech? He read, "one nation, indivisible". But left out, "with liberty and justice for all". I wonder if they did it on purpose?

He's your guy, let's see how things go.
This is what I found myself repeating. “Sounds great! We’ll see...”
