Nope. I'm a Christian, and Trump represents a much better choice for my values than do the open borders, redistributionist, abortion loving and religion hating democrats. Is Trump perfect? Of course not.


Nice try.

Cause? - what cause?

It's not the government's foreign policy, it's the foreign policy of the people/country.

I don't want any religion involved in our government. There is a reason why we have a separation of church and state.
The only time the hardliners on the left give a damn about religion is if they can weaponize it. The hardliners on the right just hide behind it.

Religion has no place in politics.

It isn't an opportunity for the President to rally his base -- or it hasn't been.

The base loved it.......others (including those swing voters) may not be so into it.
What is the history of the national prayer breakfast and the group behind it? It is anything but a noble event.

This is a bit off topic but wow. You Trump fans are really pathetic excusing Impeached Trump for evading/dodging the war. Why does his lying arse get a pass from you?

Evangelicals and Fundamentalists are not real Christians. One cannot claim to follow the teachings of Christ while unquestionably supporting a man whose life and deeds and words are the exact opposite of everything Christ taught. We need to stop pretending Trump supporters are Christians. They are not. They are actually CINOs--Christians in Name Only. So it's no surprise that these CINOs applaud Trump turning their prayer breakfast into another campaign rally. Phony Christians at a phony "Christian" event.

Because evading service in Vietnam was honourable, through whatever means.

No, evading service in Vietnam was NOT Honorable, through any means.
Only if you are from Planet Uranus.

What about the US keeping the Japanese from invading your country during WWII.
Your NZ country men helped with that campaign. Was evading that a HONOURABLE THING to do?

Look people, we all have our own beliefs and opinions.
I merely bring to light my thoughts and opinions.

I am not here to change yours, but, merely point out some tidbits and facts.
Not to go back and forth with insults, I know you are-but what am I, or anything else demeaning.

We all approach a fork in the road, and it is up to us to make a decision on which way to go.

This President has evidence of narcissist and it can not be a good thing in the long run.
We have to trust this man with the Nuclear Codes, and anything else that keeps this country safe.
