NOTHING is more impressive than this President.

It’s NOT just words with him. He IS the office and the real deal.

Years ago, my ex-boyfriend dropped me and said, “That’s it with you... you are impossible to impress!”

Well-this President impresses me every day.

The so-called pastor of that church said she was outraged that the president went to visit her church.

That idiot woman pastor had nothing to say about the fact that they almost burned her church down the previous night. She should be praying that the her church was saved from the arsonists. Instead her reaction to recent events is that she’s pissed off at Trump.

I just can’t believe the mindset of some people.

Every POTUS since...I think Madison...has been to that Church. Now she wants to pick and choose. The Church is not her. It’s part of history and she’s just a passing shadow.

There are a couple of things that need to be put into perspective here.

1. One room in the church was burned. The remainder of the church was not at risk as there are fire suppression systems elsewhere in the building.

2. The President’s actions were staged. The guy doesn’t attend church on a regular basis. Neither do I. I am not judging him on that, but to go stand there with a bible is a bit disingenuous.

3. The bishop is an idiot. Much of clergy are idiots these days.

I would much rather see Trump “marching” down 5th Ave in NYC. Or going into the streets of DC to stare down the crowds.

You want to see a heroic move—have him join a peaceful engagement.

Engage the good folk. Destroy the rioters.

But the whole thing—the protests, the riots, the response are all staged for political purposes. Nothing is going to change. No one is behaving differently than we could have “table topped” this whole thing a year ago with similar results.

The MSM and the Dems still rolling with the narrative that the president had “peaceful” protestors moved away from the church so he could have a photo op! These idiots in their TDS rage don’t realize how stupid they’re sounding to most law abiding Americans. They want us to think solely about George Floyd’s death but look past the violence and looting. This is all gonna come back to bite them in the butt!

Cucker Tarleson wanted him to be out there putting out the fire and dispersing the looters.

Shameful.

Almost all of the buildings burned down by black thugs had
fire suppression systems... so that’s crap.

Trump sent a message to the thugs and their enableres... and that message was ‘NO, YOU MAY NOT BURN DOWN OUR CHURCHES, CITIES, AND BUSINESSES.

I heard the message I’m surprised you didn’t.

The problem we have with the black community is THEY need to sit down, shut up and listen to the rest of us. It’s time to heal and that’s NOT going to happen when thugs are not only sitting at the table, they’re screaming at good people I’m sick of racial division based on the greed of the ‘black community. It’s time for fairness. It’s time for justice.

That does NOT include thugs burning down buildings if they’re dissed. Eff em

I don’t think it would be safe for him to go into the streets of DC when a riot is going on, to stare down the crowds.

Every public appearance of any president is staged to some extent. That is true of Trump and every previous president.

My impression is that it was a powerful statement to visit a church which was threatened by the rioters. Even though you are saying only one room in the church burned, it still is shocking that the rioters would target the church property.

That may be the way you saw it in the “natural”. In the “supernatural”, it was a major moment, as many understood. Potus staked out on which side he stood, which we always knew, but it was a symbolic action with major ramifications. He held up a Christian weapon of war (Bible) and he physically reclaimed a territory claimed by Satan and his minions which minutes before had been occupied by rioters. It was an “Onward Christian Soldiers” moment and it will always been seen as that.

Could Joe Biden even walk that far?

All the press people seem to be out of breath as President Trump glides along effortlessly.

He held up the SWORD!

THAT was the point! It was all about the “SWORD”!

” We have only one offensive piece of armor, instead of defensive: the sword of the Spirit, or, the Word of the Lord (the Bible).”

I remember being in a 4 hour traffic jam because Obama shut down the DC beltway so he could attend a graduation party for his daughter in the suburbs or Obama wanted to go to McDonalds or Clinton wanted to try Tex Mex in the suburbs.This was a short walk and he wanted to see things first hand as a builder it makes sense Jesus was a carpenter too.

That was an epic moment for PDJT.

(At church when you were a kid, did you have “Sword Drills”?)

Joe: My thoughts? Where the hell am I? How’d I get here? Well, G-d bless America and tell Jill to bring the Limo.

Exactly. It was a symbolic act and call for the true remnant to fight back against Satan and his minions, through the Sword of the Word and prayer. Prayer, fasting and spiritual declarations through the Word are going to win this battle for the soul of America.

I remember being stuck on subway platforms for hours, or taking long detours through Central Park at night because Clinton was in the Big Apple to shake down donors. Regular occurrence, with Secret Service agents and big, nasty German Shepherds in the park directing us through, or just sitting on a stinking, hot subway platform underground until he was done feeling my pain.
