    When he signed an executive order banning bumps stocks, he was wrong.

    When he signed outrageous Democrat drafted spending bills, he was wrong.

    Quite a few times he should have just shut up and waited to respond to attacks.

    He was wrong for not firing everyone in the White House on day 1.

    That's 4, off the top of my head.

    How many times do you think he did something right?

    Think about it! Even Australian's, with no skin in the game, have made him a everyday part of their lives! That should sum it perfectly :) To make a point, I haven't a clue who holds the scepter of dominance in the land down under, don't care, never have cared and really don't care what goes on in that country..

    And no one I know does either. Personally, I think Trump is simply an outlet for other countries to vent their hate for Americans and America. If not Trump, I'm sure any other Rightwing politician will suit the bill ;)

    It seems impossible for left-wingers to process information which doesn't conform to the current narrative. For leftists "Critical Thinking" is a slogan.

    Biden's not competent, he says.

    Let's see, in his first 20 months in Office, he got passed....

    Infrastructure bill, Trump paid lip service to wanting it done, but couldn't get it done even
    when he had both houses. This bill was bipartisan, and Trump didn't get it done. It's a historic bill on par which surpasses Eisenhower's highways project.

    The Inflation Reduction Act, which is mainly a climate law, so. America is finally taking action against the biggest existential threat of our times. Energy experts believe that it will have large direct effects in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Trump was a climate change denier and one of the first things he did was take us out of the Paris Accord.

    The CHIPS and Science Act, finally we are doing something about bringing home this strategic industry.

    What's silly is calling Biden incompetent. Maybe he stutters, maybe his age affects his speech at times, as it does mine, but I, like Biden, can think clearly and know what is good for America and what is bad for America is Donald Trump.

    Which is not the same thing at all with equating him with Christ.

    Singing praises is not calling the person the next Christ. That is a false equivalency on you and other conservatives to detract what really happened.

    Yes, a billboard was put up in georgia that literally, quite literally, equated DJT as Christ. To boot, they even misquoted the Bible in doing so.

    Look both sides "sing" or talk praises of their candidate. Paula White, the televangelist, did this quite often in Trump rallies, even equating that God put Trump into the WH to save Evangelicals from Evil. That is no different than what a single teacher did to try to impress on Obama when he visited that school, which is where you got the video. Or are we dealing with another do as I say and not as I do sort of thing here?

    A lot of what they are saying is based on Romans 13:1-3. However, that verse is with every leader in the United States from George Washington to Joe Biden and everyone in between both here and abroad. But for most Evangelicals, they don't read the whole verse, just the part that fits into their ideology. The same can be said about evolution when discussing this with Evangelicals.

    That being said, this does not equate to equating Trump to Christ. It is just praising Trump from a political perspective.

    " Black and yellow red and white all are equal in his sight, humm huh hummm... Barack Hussein Obama"

    Sounds pretty damn Messianic to me.

    There are plenty of books for sale straight describing Obama as the Messiah.

    You cannot wake those who are only pretending to be asleep.

    You are baiting me. I opened a thread about this topic some time ago, with real examples from this forum. Apparently somebody believed that making a solid case with references, quotes and examples was insulting and they managed to get it deleted. So, since I can't respond to this without getting in trouble, I better pass....

    Notice I haven't explicitly stated what my position on this matter is... But if you make a guess you are likely to get it right.

    You need some serious updating of facts and especially- the basics of economics.

    Everything is relative. Compared to what's due- Biden's rating are substantially inflated. Many terms apply here- Loose cannon, wrecking ball, etc.

    Other wise, we just accept that any level of incompetence is reasonable, right? No, left. That's there thing.
