When asked what he means with that he answered that he eats nails before breakfast. Huh? What on earth does that mean?
It means that he has to tell you what a tough guy he is because otherwise you wouldn't notice. James Bond eats scrambled eggs for breakfast.

Yes, he's a fascist and, yes, he is a dangerously unstable human being who everyone should be terrified of to have control over a nuclear arsenal.
So will he be re-elected in 2020?

When the last American shoots the second-last one, we Canadians are going to march in and take over. We will, of course, be unarmed.

Re: Trump On Torture

Jesus didn't preach to governments. Applying his teachings to governments is totally out of line.
That copout doesn't work in a democracy. In a democracy, YOU are the government, so Jesus was most definitely preaching to the government. You have a responsibility to cast your vote in a Christ-like manner.

The direction of politics is toward totalitarian tyranny....
In the US, the people are begging for it. "Please, please, please take away our freedom to protect us from those terrible outsiders."
Faith writes:
Those "Christians" (mostly Catholics) who give sanctuary to illegal aliens are committing a crime.
As were the Christians and non-Christians who gave sanctuary to Jews. Sometimes the spirit of the law trumps the letter of the law.

The illegal immigrants are an essential part of your economy. Their "illegality" is just silly posturing.

I wouldn't cry if a few dozen lost their coats.

Matthew 25: 42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
By the way, wouldn't taking somebody's coat be considered theft?

Re: What would Jesus do?

P.S. "What would Jesus do?" He'd support the death penalty for murderers as the Mosaic Law commands.
Actually, He'd tell whomever is without sin to cast the first stone - i.e. nobody.

Re: Topic Reminder

Why is Trump so appealing?
That's been the gist of the "digressions" in this topic. Trump is so appealing because he appeals to people's basest instincts: greed, revenge, etc.

All the opinion about this madeup incident is coming from current PC leftists who have an amazing inability to distinguish terrorists from innocents.
We invented court systems because we don't trust your amazing ability to distinguish guilt from innocence at a glance.
