How many of the huge anti trump posters here on FR are paid trolls?

I believe there are quite a few.

Please tell me, are you saying you think I should be killed at some point because I differ from you on my idea of who best represents conservatism?

Oh FFS, turn down your drama queen setting and give your head a shake. You've been here on FR since *1999* and you don't understand the principle of *ZOTS*!??

You actually somehow read a physical THREAT from my post #51?

Pearle Vision Centers have specials every weekend, take the hint and read it again.

To: Kaslin; All
Noting that I will gladly vote for Trump if he is nominated, please consider the following.

The problem with constitutionally low-information Trump, and likewise low-information Christians, is this imo. Evidently neither Trump or Christians understand that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for either abortions or transgender restrooms.

In other words, any official, vote-winning action that the feds take on these issues is based on 10th Amendment-protected state powers and state revenues that the feds have stolen from the states in the form of unconstitutional federal taxes.

The states need to amend the Constitution to get political parties and their Constitution-ignoring platforms out of the federal government.

In fact, given that one of the very few powers that the states have actually delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, to regulate an aspect of domestic policy is to run the US Mail Service (1.8.7), the key question to ask concerning political party support of federal government leaders is this.

How many political parties does it take to run the US Mail Service?

I say none.

Ah, what this nation does NOT need are 'fake' Christians in the White House of any political party. Adherence to the 'original intent' of the Constitution is Christian enough for me. Christ had a whole lot to say about those that sit in the seat of Moses (law giver).. Look what those that sit in the seats of the law, elected and appointed positions of power have done to our Constitution... You think God is ignoring them?

LOL! You make me laugh. The Drama-Queen opuses should begin in earnest in the next two weeks. I can’t wait to read them.

This is a deliberate, connived attack on Donald Trump's religious values. Since the writer does deliberately distort statements taken out of context, in order to mislead, the writer demonstrates a cavalier willingness to bear false witness, and discredits himself.

This is not how an honorable person defends the verity of any theological position--certainly not one that accepts the merits of the Ten Commandments.

Any serious theologian would be hard pressed not to call out "Hypocrite," when forced to read this tripe. And any candidate who stoops to employ such tactics is also to that extent discredited.

“Any Christian that needs to look to a flesh man for protection is NOT a Christian.”

Good point. Lets get rid of cops and courts, and locks on the doors. Just ask Jesus to stop the rapists...

Protecting the innocent is one of the jobs God says a government should do:

” The honest citizen has no need to fear the keepers of law and order, but the dishonest man will always be nervous of them. If you want to avoid this anxiety just lead a law-abiding life, and all that can come your way is a word of approval. The officer is God’s servant for your protection. But if you are leading a wicked life you have reason to be alarmed. The “power of the law” which is vested in every legitimate officer, is no empty phrase. He is, in fact, divinely appointed to inflict God’s punishment upon evil-doers.” - Romans 13

God is my protector. Trump is a businessman and Cruz is wolf is sheeps clothing. Cruz is doing more to harm the cause of Christ already than Trump ever can as POTUS

It doesn’t seem like any regulars (that I know of) are getting zotted. I don’t recognize names like publana.

You’re a punk. In every sense of the word. A punk with a fascist streak a mile wide.

If Hildabeast gets the Presidency because you disillusioned conservatives couldn’t get your perfect dream candidate to win the nomination, the only ones you can blame when you’re in the DEATH CAMPS awaiting EXECUTION via your failing at “re-education” are yourselves!

LOSERS to the last!

Trump is a charlatan. A Manhattan liberal. And a policy moron. But he is your guy come hell or high water. I get that. What surprises me is your willingness to throw any and everyone under the bus who does not hold Trump up as the conquering hero with bone spurs.
