Beg Forgiveness

I will get back to more facts and date soon, but these questions are still driving me CRAZY. How could a good Christians vote for Trump? And how will they explain it at the pearly gates?

I have a brief excerpt from Charlie Sykes:

"Voters, we are told, were upset about inflation, the border, and about “woke” politics.

But they were, apparently, not bothered by Trump’s crimes, his incoherent economic plans, his appeasement of Vladamir Putin, his embrace of a “rough hour” of police brutality, or the Great Replacement theory. Nor were they put off by Trump’s empowerment of an anti-vax nutjob like RFK, Jr., who may gut the nation’s health care safety net.

There are several possibilities here. Voters who backed Trump:

(1) Never heard any of this because they exist in an alternative reality

(2) Heard about it but didn’t believe it, because they preferred his lies

(3) Knew about his reckless dishonesty and bigotry, but didn’t care, or…

(4) Actually, liked it all."

I think some Trump voters come from each of these groups. I think the evangelical Christians are mostly from groups (3 )and (4) as they are strong Trump supporters.

I think Trump is going to be every bit as bad (or worse) than predicted.

Kamala just did not admit Joe's errors or help people understand what she had learned from them. Or explain how she would improve things.

Through constant repetition, Trump was able to make his issues, the issues that matter.

And Trump was lucky enough or smart enough to choose issues that presidents have very little ability to solve. Biden couldn't order grocery stores to sell eggs for less. He can't tell people to not want to come to the United States.--Hiram

Laurie will be happy to hear you are still alive... :-)

As the "Incumbents Out" post noted... It seems that people all around the world "shot the messenger". :-O

And Joe letting millions and millions of illegals in before he finally closed the tap certainly did not help.
