1. Trump does not “kidnap” anyone. You are over simplifying and subverting the border issue using it to demonize Trump.
We are each entitled to our opinion.
Obama built and used the cages everyone complains about.
My favorite right wing whataboutism.
Gun manufactures must be responsible for mass shootings then, right?
They BUILT the guns after all.
No mention by you of the children being used to gain access to this country illegally by persons other than their parents. This issue is far more complicated than you portray.
However complicated it is, do it's proponents identify more closely with these people on Jesus's Right:
for I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in; 36 naked, and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Or more closely with these people on Jesus' Left:
42 for I was hungry, and ye did not give me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink; 43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye clothed me not; sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
I still say Left. Over 600 Kids taken from their parents solely as retribution AGAINST the parents for crossing the border to seek asylum (which is a perfectly LEGAL activity), and to send a message to future asylum seekers not to come.
Shameful and
100% UN-Christlike. 100%
2. Your charge Trump wants to “ remove access to healthcare and remove funding for essential services critical to the survival of the least among us” is false.
Trump administration urges Supreme Court to overturn the Affordable Care Act
In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, the Trump administration on Thursday urged the Supreme Court to overturn the Affordable Care Act. The late-night court filing came on the same day the government reported that close to half a million people who lost their health insurance amid the economic shutdown have gotten coverage through HealthCare.gov.
The administration's legal brief makes no mention of the coronavirus.
Overall, some 20 million Americans could lose their health coverage, and protections for people with preexisting health conditions also would be put at risk if the court agrees with the administration in the case, which won't be heard before the fall.
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye clothed me not; sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
Merry Christmas: Republicans Cut SNAP Benefits
“The Trump Administration issued a draconian rule in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program that will cut off basic food assistance for nearly 700,000 of the nation’s poorest and most destitute people,” Robert Greenstein, the president and founder of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities said in a statement
“These are folks who are already living on the edge,” says Lisa Hamler-Fugitt, the executive director of the Ohio Association of Foodbanks. She adds, “It is our national nutrition safety net and it serves 40 million Americans. I’ve never witnessed anything like this. It’s a deliberate attack.” Unsurprisingly, the rule will hit communities of color and people living in rural areas the hardest.
42 for I was hungry, and ye did not give me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink;
Where did he give billions to corporate welfare ? Was it in tax cuts that made the economy soar benefiting the whole nation.
Tax cuts to the rich rarely Boost the economy.
Raising taxes on them does, however.
High top marginal tax rates (generally well above 60%) on rich people actually stabilize the economy, prevent economic bubbles from forming, prevent economic crashes, and lead to steady and sustained economic growth (and steady and sustained wage growth for working people).
On the other hand, when top marginal rates drop below 50 percent, the opposite happens. The massive Republican tax cuts of the 1920s (from 73% to 25%) led directly to the Roaring '20s stock market bubble, temporary boom, and then the crash and Republican Great Depression of 1929.
Rates on the very rich went back up into the 70-90% range from the 1930s to the 1980s. As a result, the economy grew steadily; for the first time in the history of our nation we went 50 years without a crash or major bank failure; and working people's wages increased enough to produce the strongest middle class this nation has ever seen.
Then came Reaganomics.
Reagan cut top marginal rates on millionaires and billionaires from 74% down to 38% and there was an immediate surge in the markets - followed by the worst crash since the Great Depression and the failure of virtually the entire nation's savings and loan banking system.
Bush Sr cut taxes, and the nation fell into a severe recession while debt soared and wages for working people fell.
Things stabilized somewhat when Clinton slightly raised taxes on the very rich, but W. Bush dropped them again - including taking taxes on unearned income (interest and dividends - the "income" that people like W. born with a trust fund "earn" as they sit around the pool waiting for the dividend check to arrive in the mail) down to a top rate of 15%. (That's right - trust fund babies pay a MAXIMUM 15% federal income tax on their dividend and interest income, thanks to the second Bush tax cut.) The result of this surge in easy money for the wealthy, combined with deregulation in the financial markets, was the "froth" Greenspan worried about and led us straight into the Second Republican Great Depression.
The math is really pretty simple. When the uber-rich are heavily taxed, economies prosper and wages for working people steadily rise. When taxes are cut for the rich, working people suffer and economies turn into casinos.
To close I will say I in no way claim the political right is perfect before God because it is not but I will say it’s platform is more closely aligned with biblical principals than that of the left.
Except those Biblical principles laid out in Matthew 25:34-45. The Political RIGHT most definitely more closely aligns with those of Jesus' LEFT in the passage. Without question.
Your avoidance of the abortion
Since neither side demonstrably wants to make it illegal, it's a non issue politically for me.
We have the most lawless president in Modern History today.
More than 175 current, former law enforcement officials endorse Joe Biden, slam Trump as 'lawless' president
and the rejection of Jerusalem
Rejection of Jerusalem as what exactly... what is being rejected??
You mean like this rejection?:
Matthew 23:37-38
37 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. 38 Look, your house is left to you desolate.
Or do you mean some other rejection?
