If Trump was (or wanted to be) a dictator, his opposition would've already gotten lined up against a wall in front of a machine gun.

The left has somebody in the White House with whom they disagree. But they seriously need to become reacquainted with reality. Who knows, it could do them some good.

lol, #Resist or something!

Paul says in 1 Corinthians that rulers come and go and they are of no consequence to Him. They are nothing, and don't affect His plans and purposes for mankind.

Trump’s fans and his haters are equally wearisome to me.

There are pros and cons to a lifelong presidency, it does give a nation a more consistent direction and reduces the drama of elections, but it gives more opportunity for tyranny and makes it less likely that the government will represent the people, so overall I think it’s a bad idea

Given the high-handed way in which Trump operates one would think he was royalty and Congress was an afterthought.
That view seems to fly in the face of all the work the President has done with Congress, meeting with members of both houses on pending legislation and encouraging, pleading with, and strategizing with them and Speaker Ryan or Senator McConnell.

By who's authority? What he can legally do and what he'd like to do can be two different things.
The Founding Fathers and the early American church community would be appalled at the suggestions of this man.

The Founding Fathers lived in a time when it was common for people to settle their disagreements with a duel and senators would get into fist fights with each other.

Odds are they wouldn’t be too offended by anything Trump has done.

Are you saying they would approve of a man frequently lying and financially cheating people by several different methods? You think they were those kind of men?
Would the church community then have elected the type of man that Trump has shown himself to be for decades? Absolutely not and you know it.

George Washington was nicknamed "Town Destroyer" by the Iroquois while Benjamin Franklin's, ahem, private life would make anybody blush.

Let's not make the Founding Fathers into something they weren't, mmkay?

What does this have to do with lying and stealing from individuals?

The Iroquois were a conquered people and Ben never ran for President.

Well, I suppose it's a matter of perspective. But I happen to think destroying people's homes with artillery, killing them in the process, is a lot worse than any of these silly conspiracy theories leveled against Trump.

But I suppose there's no accounting for taste.

You're the one who first mentioned the Founding Fathers; not me. My intention was to show that the Founding Fathers were hardly saints. Describing too many of their antics might get me banned.

Trump is the President. The sooner you guys accept that, the happier I think you'll be.

What the church community would not have done is celebrate baby murder, socialism, and sodomy in its midst. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

Given the media, I'm surprised some of them haven't ended up in jail. Put between 100 - 1000 of the top agent provocateurs in the slammer, and I reckon his problems would at least have halved. He could even set up some dummy-Democrat leaders for the sheep who insist on Democrat.
