ALL ABOARD THE TRUMP FAMILY TRAIN, EST. 2017 BY DOLLYCALI!
Survived everything thrown at it over the years, just like President Trump....including trolls, moles and saboteurs.
Welcome to the TRUMP FAMILY TRAIN THREAD, where all things Trump are welcome!
Feel free to share news, your comments and opinions, memes, recipes, travel photos... the list is endless.
Posting on behalf of the TFT founder and thread mama, Dolly Cali. 
If any group, culture, country, etc., requires NO personal responsibility of its people, it has no chance of success. Continually giving handouts so people stay dependent on others is not beneficial to anyone but dictators. Haiti is an extreme example of this. How many billions have been poured into that country, while nothing permanently improves for its ordinary people?
It’s time to return to …... Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for life……. I add: require him to fish for himself after teaching him.
Thank you for waking lysie this morning....I should have requested a wake-up knock as well!
I wonder what Catherine Herridge has learned that they’re determined they don’t want released. The media truly are criminals.
Ramadan. It makes me nervous on a normal year. This year is makes me downright scared for our nations.
Bible in a Year :
Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for God has already approved what you do.
I recently read a novel about a woman who refuses to acknowledge she has terminal cancer. When Nicola’s exasperated friends force her to face the truth, the reason for her avoidance emerges. “I’ve wasted my life,” she tells them. Though born with talents and wealth, “I made nothing of my life. I was sloppy. I never stuck at anything.” The prospect of leaving the world now, feeling she’d achieved little, was too painful for Nicola to contemplate.
I was reading Ecclesiastes around the same time and found the contrast stark. Its Teacher won’t let us avoid the reality of the grave, “the realm of the dead, where you are going” (9:10). And while this is hard to face (v. 2), it can lead us to value every moment we have now (v. 4), intentionally enjoying our food and families (vv. 7–9), working purposefully (v. 10), taking adventures and risks (11:1, 6), and doing it all before the God we’ll one day answer to (v. 9; 12:13–14).
Nicola’s friends point out that her faithfulness and generosity to them proves her life hasn’t been a waste. But maybe the Teacher’s advice can save us all from such a crisis at the end of our lives: remember our Creator (12:1), follow His ways, and embrace every opportunity to live and love that today He provides. Reflect & Pray
How will you take delight in today’s simple, God-honoring joys? What one good thing have you yet to do or attempt?
Loving God, thank You for today and the gifts it holds. I’ll enjoy its simple joys and embrace its opportunities as an act of worship to You.
Learn more about the book of Ecclesiastes.
Very nice, lysie, but that should be a “lysie” coffee mug. Fay never gets breakfast for us!
Loved Orban’s visit at Maralago. So beautifully done.
Lol Slopanopoulos.
Mean tweets.....lol he’s still got the touch!
Good! It’s just hard for me to comprehend what teachers and schools are putting kids through.
“lying for the good of the party is good.”
Gee, what does that remind me of? Hmmmm. Oh! I know!
Taqiyya! Yes - lie all you want if it’s for the sake of islam!
I guess controlling evil thugs all follow the same MO.
Has he? I love Rand. And not just because he’s an ophthalmologist! lol
I am appreciating Elon more as well, FD.
I’m also glad that the left is out to get him. That will push him further and further to the good side.
He’s been going to universities and campaigning for Trump, which is good as he can connect with them.
That’s a great trade-off between you and Audrey. And I bet Andy wanted a commission, 10% of the licorice?
“Hahaha love that pie chart. Very concise!”
I thought you might be able to work it into your baking somehow.
I do! They’re pretty good kids. And the fact that they’re always over here, rifling through my cupboards, fridge and freezer, looking for snacks and treats hardly bothers me at all. Hardly lol. ;)
Oh dear....was it all of that extra work you did? I hope your shoulder and arm feel better soon - maybe let the work wait!
Going along with the fish theme, we could also use....
If a man commits a serious crime, turn him into fish food.
Kind of completes the cycle, don’t you think lol?
I saw that on X last night and thought it was real until I saw it was the Bee.
“My shoulder and arm are killing me.”
oh no!
Is it a good thing that your neck isn’t involved? I’m glad at least it’s not hurting. How about a day off, to relax. Although it’s hard when you’re the only one there to do things.
I’m home alone this week!
