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.

You should really get off of the Epstein kick. It is going nowhere for you. Did you figure out the difference between being on the plane and going to the island? Yes Trump and Epstein were one time friends but you don’t mention that Trump ended that long ago, early to mid 2000’s. This liberal talking point that everything Trump does is to distract from Epstein is actually the distraction. If there was real evidence Trump engaged in Epstein’s enterprise liberals would have made hay with that long ago.

Again a false liberal talking point. You forget :
“I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”

For one thing, they were there on his orders to stop Congress from certifying the election.
You forget:
"We fight like hell," Trump had said. "And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore."
Critics insist that particular passage, in addition to the speech's combustible and inciteful words, spurred his supporters to march to the U.S Capitol, violently occupy the building, create a security risk and suspend Electoral College deliberations.
The episode ended tragically, with five people including a police officer, losing their lives.
Insurrection: Trump speech, tweets before supporters stormed US Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021
On Jan. 6, 2021, Trump tweeted: "I am asking for everyone at US Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order."

Probably a higher percentage than that of liberals believed Biden was sharpe as a tack. This story has not yet concluded. Like I said you really should get off this Epstein kick.

Trump faces backlash as 69% believe Epstein details concealed, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-faces-backlash-69-believe-epstein-details-concealed-reutersipsos-poll-2025-07-17/The cover-up is not working.
If you find that thought comforting, by all means, enjoy it.
Judging by the way Trump's support is eroding, probably not. Some of his underlings seem to have done and said things that might have consequences.
It's not me that has Donald Trump frantically trying to find something that will distract us from the Epstein mess:
A broken promise to release more information about the Jeffrey Epstein case has sparked outrage among some of President Donald Trump’s loyal supporters.
The Justice Department last week said Epstein, who was facing charges of sex trafficking, did not leave behind a “client list.” Attorney General Pam Bondi suggested in February it was on her desk, though she later said she was referring to the overall case file.
Bondi also said officials were poring over a “truckload” of previously withheld evidence. The Justice Department concluded, however, that public disclosure would not be appropriate and that much of the material was placed under seal by a judge. That has angered right-wing influencers who were once bolstered by Trump’s own claims on this case, but are now feeling their demands are being squelched by his administration.
Figures like commentator Tucker Carlson, right-wing activist Laura Loomer, and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon claim the government’s handling of the case shows a lack of transparency. Anger over the case threatens to divide the MAGA faithful.

MAGA has pretty much given Trump a pass on everything, including his criminal convictions. But they seem to be drawing the line at pedophilia.

I noticed nobody is talking anymore about the alleged attack on “Big Balls” that kicked off this whole thread.
Clearly he was just a “big prop” for the administration’s big takeover of the nation’s Capitol.

White House Wants Big Balls to Get Same Medal as Rosa Parks
The move would appeal to Trump’s MAGA base.
An ex-DOGE staffer known as “Big Balls” could end up receiving the highest civilian honor in the United States, placing him in the company of luminaries such as Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr. and Mother Teresa. Two weeks after 19-year-old Edward Coristine was viciously assaulted during a...

As you see, there has been a remarkable decrease in crime in D.C. over the past few decades. Trump has said he wants to turn that around. He certainly got off to a strong start on Jan 6.

No its not. Going from beating your wife 10 times a day to 6 times a day is not bragging right.
He should have. But hes learning. Sounds like hes getting fed up with the crime like the rest of us are. Fed up with a corrupt inept system like the rest of us are.

Because it can be done then logically it should hey?
At no point in the 60s 70s 80s or 90s when dc was in A far rougher spot than it is now. Didn't need to happen then.
Bur now that there has been a steady DECREASE in crime over 2 decades then it needs to happen.
Seriously, this failed logic. It truly does NOT need to happen at all.
People are sick of crime ALL OVER THE US. T
They're sick of crime in houston; they're sick of crime in Miami. Why does Trump and DC get that protection?
And why did he HAVE TO copy Hitler? It's not fair that he copies Hitler playback and if it gets pointed out it's just a Godwin.
So? If this was about safety a way could be found....
Lol.
Like the word "cannot" exists in this administration.

No. That they were desperate, hopeful and trusting.
And no surprise whatsoever Trump has let them down pretty hard. Which is weird. He told them exactly what he'd do. Experts said it was stupid. All the outcomes have been bad.
And other than Republicans everyone can see through his stupidity at the reality of his policies (hes losing independents quicker than his mental faculties)
