    I didn't vote for who gets to be God or the Pope. I voted for who gets to be President. Why these people think I would vote against my best interest is hard to understand.

    We have been told now that we made a deal with the Devil and have been damned and have stains on us. I'm going to make a list for the next time I confess my sins.
    I'm praying for you Capt'n even though I'm an agnostic. (wink) See miracles can happen. Don't tell DG. I don't want him to think I'm softening on religion.

    I'm sorry Capt'n but as an avid supporter of this President you are in fact an extension of him. You have embraced him and all he says and does. You can't separate the good and bad. It's a one package deal. What keeps our moral principles intact is being able to pass on the easy win when it's riddled and wrapped around so much bad.

    Doing the right thing isn't easy and many times you end up losing the fight only to come back stronger to win the war. It builds character.

    I believe those who support Trump are losing far more than they will win in the long run.

    President Trump has courage and the right policies.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Such reputable sources as the NYT and the History Channel. I would believe the National Enquirer first.

    My moral principles are just fine, thank you. I think it's immoral to allow a bunch of people to just walk in and steal my money. I voted for Trump to stop that.

    I have embraced what I want him to do. I don't embrace everything he does or says. I don't care is what it is. What he says means nothing and you know that.

    I did the right thing if only to keep Hildebaest out of the WH.

    I haven't lost anything and no one else has either.

    Why can't we simply agree that he is a human being--just like the rest of us--and that, like the rest of us, he is sometimes right, and sometimes wrong?

    Personally, I think that he has been right more often than not. But I did not care for his intrusion upon free trade; and his recent dustup with the Fed is not good either, in my opinion.

    where ya been the last couple of decades , Rip Van Winkle? The two "major gangs" have stayed in power despite dismal performance through increased polarization. Guess what for them to stay in power it has to get even worse! And it will of we allow it.

    You being an agnostic gives me hope.
