What a great story. Wow, I liked that one.

Thanks for the mention.

I always considered my votes for Reagan the most enjoyable. I enjoy Trump’s on the same level, but it truly seems there is more at stake these days with civil unrest and the Left so unhinged in the media and out.

Trump is paying off dividends even with everyone in D.C. against him.

Very cool.

Reagan will always have a special place in my thoughts.

[Uncle Miltie]

Amen.

Left unsigned by President Bill Clinton and became law on November 8, 1995

Worth noting is that today's Torah reading (today, from sundown) marks the beginning of the 22 year timeline of Joseph's separation from his father and brothers:

Gen 39:1-6

And today spells the end of 22 full years:

Wednesday, November 8, 1995 - Wednesday, December 6, 2017
Result: 8064 days
22 years, 28 days

Plenty for the Kabbalists here:

8064

224 (derech דרך) x 36
(238 + 14) x 32
288 x 14 x 2

MAGA: Make Ariel Great Again

Joseph is still alive, and he's the ruler (a mashal, which is also a parable) over all of Edom.

"And we shall see what will become of his dreams"

70 years from Res. 181.

Etc.

Bill Clinton promised to move our embassy to Jerusalem, but didn’t.

George W. Bush promised to move our embassy to Jerusalem, but didn’t.

Donald Trump promised to move our embassy to Jerusalem, and is doing it.

I LOVE Israel!!

I LOVE our President!!

I LOVE my God!!!

WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY!!!!!

[silverleaf]

There already are 2 states
Israel and Jordan

[hoosiermama]

Exactly

[Angels27]

Outstanding! Nice to have a POTUS who is a friend to Israel.

[Billthedrill]

Best vote of my life.

Yeah. Note to the Euros, such as Theresa May, who have been sniveling about U.S. "withdrawal" - you wanted leadership, you got leadership. Now quit bitching.

Lots of vested interests in eternal conflict in the Middle East, lots of careers made, money churned, lots of fat cats bathing in blood. Consider this when you note who's screaming the loudest.

MINE TOO!

President Trump is my favorite.

[WKUHilltopper]

Thank you, Mr. President.

[bigbob]

Thanks for your replies - I like all of the above!

I’m constantly reminding myself that while Trump may be a newcomer to DC, he’s been watching these situations very carefully for 30+ years, and his views have remained quite consistent over time. That says he’s not only got a plan but that it’s not just a whim but part of a greater vision.

I could have done without the “Haram al Goatf**ker” or whatever the putrid Muzzies call the Temple Mount they desecrated. But I think the mealy-mouthed Jared wrote that part.

[DoughtyOne]

Good comments. I agree.

[Fantasywriter]

+1

Considering that on average the posters on The_Donald are fairly young, they’re very astute. Despite the salty language, I enjoy that site enormously.

[DoughtyOne]

Mine too to this point.

Reagan was great too though. We all acknowledge that.
