This is denigrating 8.8 Million people. Is that necessary?

You're the one who said that Trump's "in your face" style resonated with them. That's not something to brag about.

This is because you don't understand Trump's base. They like his accomplishments because they directly affect their lives. Chris Christie was not the right candidate for revamping the entrenched political machine so it would work for the common person.

It is remarkable how much Trump has been able to accomplish in spite of a 24x7 media and political machine working hard to take him down.

Achieving "energy independence" has been a huge mantra for decades. We have achieved that but covering it in the press would of course credit Trump, so no one hears about it.

lol, where do you guys come from? It's like interacting with cult members. You guys just copy-and-paste these lists without checking any of the claims to see if they were ever true, if they're still true, or if they're only true in a very selected perspective that, once viewed in a larger context, becomes meaningless. The ones about coal exports and manufacturing jobs always jump out at me because they're obviously fallacious.

Coal exports have bounced around, but coal production has been on a steep decline since its peak in 2008:
Coal imports and exports - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)

And mining and manufacturing jobs have not had the boom these lists imply:
Employment by industry

This is not the truth. I never said that.

Ah, my mistake. It was @JohnDB who said that:

I find it funny.
I used to live in NJ (seapoints exit)
Trump is something of a "hero/icon" to many there. His "in your face" style of rhetoric resonates with many people there.

Perhaps you should take up your complaint with him.

My complaint was the untruth in your statement. Why is that his fault now?

Good question.

The untruth in my statement was attributing the quote to you. I've admitted that error.

To clarify my comment on taking up your complaint with him: He's the one who says that Trump's style resonates with NJ voters. I'm contending that it's that alleged resonance making the people of NJ look bad; and that if you're concerned about those 8.8 million people being "denigrated", then you should take it up with the guy who made the association in the first place.

I wonder where they learned this. It's almost like they took the tactics of the opposition to the opposition.

those trump supporters learned this from the anti voting racists in the south . They had a long history of doing intimidating tactics up to and including violence, lynching , destroying property, torture,kidnapping and murders . I have no trouble believing that these are Trump supporters

It's against local law, and God is responsible for local law.

Romans 13:1
Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.

What an entirely disappointing group of replies by His “church” to support lawlessness. What has the church in America become? Just political operatives for conspiracy theorists?
Lawlessness is lawlessness, especially when it is completely unnecessary and not even for a cause! Shame of you who call yourself Christians who support this or anything else that shows the lawlessness of the unsaved in our nation. We are to be examples of righteousness and peace and yes indignation when needed, but not predictable political talking heads on one side or the other! Where is His light that ought to reveal unrighteousness in love? I hope this is not a true sample of the “Christians” that roam my neighborhood and teach in my schools.

Agreed.
