Trump will be the first president to serve two nonconsecutive terms since Grover Cleveland in 1892 — and only the second in history.  Trump makes history again. MAGA 2024

Let's see how quick he will end the Ukrainian war; he said in a day.

  So your Scottish ancestors stole Aboriginal land ?

But, we can save that for the next Israel thread and suggestions of giving land back 🙂

The Scots were known for taking Aborigine brides, yes? That explains a lot.

[Ebumbu]

A sincere question: 

 

Was Trump chosen by God to be president? And, did God intervene in Trump's assassination attempt to make the bullet miss? Trump said he did, as recently as his victor speech yesterday. 

Your thoughts?

Not as far as I know.

 

It takes a drive through places such as Wilcannia, Murrum Bridge, Fitzroy Crossing and Halls Creek to realize how much is spent on free housing and vehicles, and how much gets wasted.

Your question is not sincere. It is meant to mock. 

 

You likely don’t have a faith in God.

 

You mock the right for their faith, but when Harris, Biden, Pelosi or most all Democrats pretend they are Christians to get votes, not a peep from you.

Trump said God saved him from death. Is he right? It's a question I'm curious about. That's it. Straightforward.

My prediction was 100% evasion of this question. So far, correct. Whatever I ask about Trump will be turned around and used to attack me. You don't know me. I'll let this informal survey run a bit. Watch what happens: no direct answers. Redirection. Evasion. And what-about-ism. 

At the end, if people have answered sincerely, I'm happy to share my spiritual beliefs. My prediction is no direct answers.

There is no direct answer, and you are not being attacked.

 

My prediction? You already “know” the answer, and that, again, your intention is to mock. 

 

If have faith in God, the answer is yes. If you have no faith in God, the answer is no.

If they could convict him of insurrection, he would be barred from taking office.

 

trump wasn't convicted during the impeachment process due to Senate Republicans failing in their Oath to support the Constitution. Seems to me there are significant gaps in the Constitution to convict wrong doers. I assume the Founding Fathers didn't factor in a corrupt President and his elected supporters. In other words the Constitution is due for revision, but will not occur whilst current GOP in power.

There is a direct answer. But you have not given it. This is a sophisticated evasion. Let me repeat the question. Own your convictions, one way or another: 

 

1) Did God choose Trump to be president? 

2) Did God make the bullet miss, sparing Trump's life? Trump says, "yes." 

 

What do YOU believe? What harm is it to answer this simple question? I said I will answer at the end, given I get sincere responses. If others share their spirituality, I'll share mine. I don't want to bias this informal survey.

Religion is a belief system.  Trump believes in a god.  He believes a god saved him.  I don't believe in a god, so I don't believe a god saved him, rather a combination of luck and poor marksmanship.   You can believe whatever you like, no-one can prove it either way right now.

Great. One direct response. It will be interesting how Thai expats answer this ... especially Americans.

Its over.

 

A Trump victory. Melanie back in the Whitehouse.

 

Do you think he will make America Great Again?

 

Will the Ukraine War end tomorrow?

 

Will the Democrats get behind the great man? Or be sore losers.
 

Considering the close result, was it a tactical error to nominate Harris, a woman with an average record. Would have a more capable man got the Dems over the line.

 

Will Trump lead for all Americans, or get sweet revenge?

 

 

Who is Melanie?

 

America will never be great because millions of idiots voted a megalomaniac back into the Presidency.

 

America needs to take a serious look at itself if they think Trump will end the Ukraine invasion tomorrow. Trump can't do it unless he sides with his friend Putin and Putin's mate Kim whatever his name is, the other idiot, from N Korea.

The older I get the more disgusted I am with people that object to other people's religions and especially their belief in God. Worse, is when people make fun or be little what other people believe. Because the truth of the matter is they're all effing crazy.

 

Have traveled much of Asia and I have seen something incredibly peculiar religious temples, shrines, gods, relics, cultures. I don't judge this.

 

Anyone that gets shot by a bullet in the ear in my opinion has the right to believe that God saved them even if I find that wholly ridiculous.

 

You know one very strong and excellent quality of Donald Trump is that he perseveres. That is a hallmark of a real winner. At 78 or however years old that guy ground his opponent into bits after all the drama and bs he's been through for the over the last 10 years or more. That reason alone is enough to demonstrate to anything person that he is a far better candidate.

Trump doesn't believe that God saved him. Trump was playing a role for this psyop. Likely it was military intelligence who saved him and neutralized the attempt long before it ever even became a genuine possibility. What we saw at Butler was merely the recreation and Hollywood effects.

 

That doesn't mean Trump isn't religious, but let's not let the psyop we're living through get the better of our common sense.

 

As you said, all of us can believe whatever we want, and until everything that has happened these last few years is fully declassified, it really won't be anything other than speculation.

It's not that they are not allowed it's their perspective doesn't contribute. In my opinion it's no different than if it was a gay thread or a woman's thread. These presidental should belong to us expatriots.

 

Question isn't whether you can physically post here. It's whether you should - or whether it has any merit or value

2) Did God intervene on Trump's behalf to stop the bullet? Trump says He did. 

 

The completely different question was from you, not me. You asked what I believe. I'm pausing that for now. I said that if I get a sincere response to my informal survey here about spiritual beliefs, I will disclose mine. I'm waiting to see what happens. 

 

Apologize for what? We're having a friendly discussion, right?
