  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Trump's closing argument? Really???

Because he's an idiot and doing it for showmanship and himself, not for the people. It's a "look at me, look at me and how cool I am!" pose.
Assertion with no evidence or facts.

Evidence that he's an idiot? All he has to do is stand at a podium and talk. That's the evidence right there.

Any president can do anything. As in whatever terrifying thing people come up with. The most popular of which for a long time has been to start WW3.
We did have a presidential administration that literally ginned up a whole big war within my voting memory. Hopefully next time congress will display a little less automatic deference.

That sounds like Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Tim Walz to me. Almost every time they speak, they sound like idiots to me.

Yeah. If I remember correctly from one of the videos I watched of the assasination attempt, a secret service member said "The shooter is down". After hearing this Donald Trump stands up "bravely" and shouts "FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT".

In my personal opinion, he was energized by the sadistic emotion that one of his enemies was killed. That helped compell him to yell and act as he did.

How does your opinion consider the very real chance that there could have been more than 1 shooter that day wanting to kill Donald Trump?

One good way to determine what someone is going to do or might do, is to look at their track record regarding the matter. Does Trump have a track record for dramatically raising the national debt? Which administration raised the national debt more, the Trump administration, or the Biden/Harris administration?

I think he took a chance on that. Probably partly fueled (in my opinion) of the sadistic joy and frenzy he had when he learned one of his enemies was killed.

Regardless, Trump has seen more combat action that most veterans.
Trump has had no combat action.
He was speaking to his adoring audience, he loves speaking and having the masses cheer him as he speaks.

He would do all he can to avoid any military service.

Completely irrelevant at this point. Trump has proven he is willing to give his life for his country. Frankly, I don't think he is going to survive to see the end of his second term. God forbid.

He hasn't proven he would give his life. That is just nonsense.

He hasn't willingly and bravely come out of the trenches and rushed towards enemy lines.
He was giving a very long speech. Many, many politicians give public speeches. Just because someone took a surprise shot at him, that doesn't make him brave, or willing to die for his country. That just makes him 1. unfortunate that a nutter took a shot at him and 2 lucky that the nutter missed. His "brave" stand up and fist pump, was after the nutter was already dead and with no threat at all left.
