Will Trump ever "come to Jesus"?

[LordBrownTrout]

There's an old parody Sherlock Holmes movie I watch regularly, a spoof called "Without a Clue". In it Holmes (Michael Caine) has to retrieve his Bible...from under one of the legs of his bed because he uses the book to keep the bed even. I'm thinking this may be where Trump keeps his Bible.

"I brought my Bible"



"Two Corinthians"



"I don't like to have to ask for forgiveness"

Paul was sending christians to court to die by the thousands.......did you ever read that? He got an adjustment on the way to damascus.

That was Saul. But Paul got in a lot of trouble with the Jerusalem Christians for going into other nations of heathens and taking them as they are instead of turning them into Jews thru diet and circumcision and customs. But we're getting off the OP, and I apologize to other posters for that. Mea culpa.

Saul of Tarsus aka Paul

come on man; jeesh

He was Saul of Tarsus on the Damascus road. After conversion, there on that road, he was Paul. I thought that went without saying. Saul was a pious Pharisee murderer. Paul was the most prolific Christian 'fisherman' of them all.

We already knew it was saul before it was paul. I thought that was just implied. Yes, and he wrote most of the new testament.

the world should pray like Hell that Trump does a similar 180

 

[william the wie]

Of course not. First, he lacks the capacity, and second, his only priority is pleasing his base.

Coming out of the leftist closet?

 

[Mac1958]

Of course not. First, he lacks the capacity, and second, his only priority is pleasing his base.

Coming out of the leftist closet?

Ugh, here we go again.

My positions on the issues are in the link at the end of the second line of my sig.

I'm a left-leaning independent.

Gawd, this gets old.

[Pete7469]

Of course not. First, he lacks the capacity, and second, his only priority is pleasing his base.

Yeah...

Pleasing his base includes escaping the economic malaise of the DNC and their moonbat messiah, getting rid of regulations that stifle the economy, blocking any more gun laws and reducing infringements that should not be in place, securing the border, and promoting global security.

Not sure why pleasing his base is a problem.

The democrook base seems to like stagnation, record high food stamp enrollments, disability outlays and unemployment. They like global instability, ISIS and jihadists running amok, NK Lobbing missiles and collapsing mountains with nuclear tests.

Seems to me that if the DNC base is irate, the country and the world are doing better.

I hope that Trump dumps his bunker mentality and acts like a real politician. His future and approval rating depend upon his likeability and persona not necessarily his policies. He should have a heart-to-heart with Pence and see if these actions would improve his approval rating, as well as GOP prospects in 2018:

Clarify that the "there are good people on both sides" comment was intended for the Confederate statue debate, not the "white supremacist vs antifa" riot as reported by the fake news MSM.

Apologize to the McCain family for the "heroes don't get captured" remark

Apologize to Gold Star families for his previous unkind remarks

Clarify that Russia "attempted" to interfere in the 2016 election, but according to the intel community, no votes were affected. Specify what Russia actually did in 2016 and publish a summary report by the intel community clearly listing the actions and if any votes were affected.

Propose raising the top tax rate to protect SS & Medicare since the top rate receives 83% of the tax cut benefit. The stock-market windfall also benefits the top tax rate, so they do owe more in taxes. Explain that if the economy grows at 2.8% the Debt will be small, but the top rate tax increase is needed for when the economy has a downturn. The top tax bracket tax increase can also be justified to pay for the added Defense and proposed Infrastructure spending.

Republicans think Trump IS Jesus.

 

[Correll]

I fucking hope not.


Damn the Political Class and their rules that are slanted against the working man.

Damn them to HELL.

Trump is helping the working man?????

Are you kidding? Trade and Immigration, it was what his campaign was all about.

 

[Correll]

Trump is as fake a Christian as Trump could possibly be.
.....

The op was obviously not using the term "come to jesus" as a religious conversion term, but as a metaphor and was actually asking if he would ever come to act more like a normal politician.

then the OP author should have had the brain capacity to make the title of the thread fit the content of the thread.

Great 'bait & switch' title/thread combo = just like a politician.

Says one thing above (here) & something completely different below (there).

Thread author has politician written all over.

"Come to Jesus" is a phrase that generally means "clear the air" of all open issues. To openly and honestly address everything that needs cleaning up.

IMHO if Trump cleans up his own messes, instead of letting the dems and MSM continually beat him over the head with them, Trump would be much better off.

Voters approve of when politicians admit mis-speaks and ask forgiveness/understanding.

You are living in the past. You can't apologize to a mob.


The Left will take any apology as weakness and just attack more.

 

[g5000]

Will Trump ever "come to Jesus"?

Who is this "Jesus" you are talking about?

 

[Pete7469]

Exactly.

Fuck those parasites.

If they're pissed off, things are going well.

[Pete7469]

Republicans think Trump IS Jesus.

First of all, you probably don't believe in Jesus.

Second, you assholes acted like your meat puppet faggot was some sort of moonbat messiah.

I guess if creating hell on earth was your goal I'd have understood your perspective.

[Votto]

Let Trump be Trump...

The Deep state does not want Trump to be Trump, nor does it want us to be us.

They wish to transform us, not just keep law and order.

In fact, judging from the lawlessness that they ignore I would conjecture that they want more of it, so that we would cry to them to gain more power over our lives to "protect" us.

 

[Hossfly]

The nation has waited since George Washington's completion of his presidency to get another president who isn't a damned politician. We finally got one who is treating the nation like the business it is and not trying to get filthy rich like every other politician. No one seems to care about all the sleazy politicians that enter politics to make their fortune, except Trump.

 

[MindWars]

acts like a " REAL POITICIAN". Jesus cripe oh mighty you really are one fkn dumbass............

Anyone with a brain who lives in reality knows how Politicians/Lawyers are all scammers, rip you off, they are sharks , pull your head out of Obama's ass,.

 

[Toro]

Trump is Jesus.

 

[Soggy in NOLA]

Trump is Jesus.

Hardly.

Your sentiments are appreciated but no - If a man is a bully at the age of 72, if he's never apologized, never asked God for forgiveness, and continues to practice the politics of fear and resentment - then that's who he is and nothing will change that.

We will never know the precise affect of Russian meddling. We do know the extent of it and that votes were certainly INFLUENCED. It is not possible to get 250 million views of fake news from bots and trolls and NOT have INFLUENCED an election won in the Electoral College by 77,000 votes in three states. Add to that the hacking/ leaking of DNC and Podesta of course. Massive INFLUENCE and one would have to be wearing blinders not to acknowledge it.

It is nice to see Obama back in the game. He reminds us of what a president should look and sound like. An educated man who reads, has a sense of history and can speak in complete sentences. He reminds us again of what decorum, respect for the rule of law and civility look like. This excruciating and embarrassing reality shit-show had better end - QUICKLY.

O reminds us all of the liar that he is.

Lord Brownie - Could you possibly be any more vacuous or a better representative of your Orange Overlord?

There is a big difference between the "dog eat dog" style of NYC businessmen and the way we expect Presidents to behave. After Trump has been in the office a year or two and sees how honorable men behave, and gold star families sacrifice, and how military patriots and law enforcement put their live on the line daily, it has to affect his perspectives. He seems to know how to manage the economy, but too often his petty TV persona emerges to keep his approval ratings low, to the delight of the MSM and Hollywood.

Just saying that people can change for the better. It would behoove Trump to keep his policies and work ethic, but to be a bit kinder and gentler, that would guarantee re-election.

We saw how "kinder and gentler" worked for George Herbert Walker Bush.

We also saw how it worked for Trump's primary opponents.

Kind and Gentle are good things - TRY them sometime

LMAO you still have sour grapes over Trump whooping your ass in an historic beat down? Oh wait, that's not really a question.

A historic BEATDOWN?
The Election Came Down to 77,744 Votes in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan (Updated)
Lemme guess, you will now claim that Dotard's poll numbers are better than Honest Abe's?
Can't fix STOOPID!
