Zone1 Just a nonconfrontational discussion.

Obviously there is a wide range of reasons why trump won. I'm just asking for specific religious related reasons CChristians are willing to support him.

Because what those radical Christians want would never survive the democratic process. What they want is just not popular. They need a dictator.

Not my fault if the facts expose hypocritical behavior.

That works both ways. If you see Trump as immoral, you'd have to see Clinton as immoral. So really all you have proven is that I was right when I said each side has a certain group that will look the other way. Congratulations. Also glad you decided to lean into it rather than crab walk away like you tried earlier. I think we are making real progress here.

The same thing applies to those radical socialists. No real difference between radicals when it comes to behaviors.

Sure. According to the Christian definition, Clinton's affair was immoral. It's a matter of the volume of transgressions.

What they want is to be left alone, to be able to live their lives. The only real issue with outside implications they all have positions on is abortion.

They need Dems to stop trying to force everyone to conform to the progressive moral code.

Actually the difference is socialists want the same things for everyone, even if they don't want them.

Evangelicals at this point would be happy with school vouchers, and their own churches not giving in to the skittle hair people's agenda.

So degrees of immorality make Democrats LESS hypocritical. Oh boy, you are giving out hall passes like Halloween candy. You are kind of proving my point. Each side has those that will look the other way.

Yes, equality through uniformity. A dumb idea if ever there was one.

Jesus never advocated that government do a blessed thing for the poor.

Nor did he advocate open borders. He said WTTE "leave government to government and God to God."

He said do unto your neighbor as you would have him do to you.

If you have no empathy, you do not know Jesus Christ.

As expected, you are trying to compare a mountain to a mole hill. I'm no more interested in arguing with an idiot than you are in being intellectually honest right now. Perhaps later.

The difference between you and I is that I will acknowledge hypocrisy of both sides whereas you will only acknowledge hypocrisy of one side.

You lack objectivity. I am being honest and you are an idiot.

Not germane to the topic, and you did note the whole "in an apparent attempt to troll their political opponents"

The divisive urge to call half the country Nazis because Trump was elected is a very poor response tot he situation. Trump was elected because two parties decide who runs, one side forced an even worse candidate on the people than the other did, and democracy (voting for what is on offer) took over. It can just as easily be said that the vote was against Harris. If a third choice had been available, he or she may well have saved us from the two unqualified people the duopoly thrust upon the scene. There is a lot of talk about diversity and some seem to think it is a dirty word, but American politics needs some.

I don’t understand that but I would like to.

Go back and re-read all your own posts.

Then read what President Trump says he wants to do in his own words, not what Joy Behar and Rachel Maddow say he wants to do.

When you begin to understand the difference, you will understand.

We all know he hand-picked Supreme Court Justices who would guarantee to end Roe v Wade. I can see how that is a big checkmark in his column. What else?

It's now in the hands ofveach states voters. The vast majority of voters are vehemently against a total ban. They just want some restrictions. Extremists want it full blown their way on each side. Can't happen. Compromise is key.

I have to disagree that both parties forced a binary choice on the voters. It is certainly true of the Democrats. Democrat voters overwhelmingly voted for Joe Biden in the primary and then the DNC decided now that guy might not win so they swapped him out as easily as a Republican changes, his or her underwear.

Trump was all but violently opposed by the Republican establishment in 2016. He became the nominee only because he was the voters choice, including the choice of many voters who decided to be Republicans that year specifically to vote for Trump.
