  • 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.

What if Donald pardons himself?

I don't think he's done anything that requires a pardon.

This Russia nonsense is a giant nothing burger cooked up to derail Trump. Nothing more.
President Comrade Trump thanks you for your support.

Then why is he obsessing over it so much...?

Only if you’d had your head buried in the sand for the last 12 months...! In terms of indictments, guilty pleas and convictions, Mueller has achieved more in his first year than any other Special investigation, including Watergate...

What if I put mustard on a sandwich?

I love mustard but it's got to be real, hot, English mustard, not that weak-kneed fruity French Dijon rubbish or, even worse, the sugary, excuse-for-mustard American garbage.

Real men use real mustard. :oldthumbsup:

Because baseless panic and paranoia are the hallmarks of perfect leaders.

So far the total is around $17 mill, as for how it breaks down to individual households per total household, maybe it's time to break out a calculator?

17 / 311.6 = 5 cents per person. Find another excuse why investigating interference in our electoral process by a foreign power is a bad thing.

George Stephanopolus, asks a hypothetical question not based in any reality and everybody loses their mind.

It’s the dumbest question on earth in my opinion and I really believe Trump tweeted about it for the fun of sending his ditractors into hissy fits

And it worked.

You must believe it -- the only alternative is that Donald was serious, and got it wr-wr-wr-wr-wrong...

No I believe exactly what I posted I think Trump is doing it just to mess with people and it’s working

Why do you think that I must believe it? Is that the only way it can be construed? Is it possible that every time the left comes up with some kind of stupid question and Trump gives them a stupid reply on purpose just to mess with you? How many brain hernias has he given the left?

They go apoplectic over everything from starting nuclear war with North Korea to what shoes his wife wears

You've heard it from the man himself:

Donald J. Trump on Twitter

"...I have the absolute right to PARDON myself..."

for now, he claims he won't do it -- but of course, we all have the right to change our minds...

What would you say if he ends up pardoning himself?

Other -- In the long run, it doesn't matter if Trump pardons himself.

Everyone faces the Day of Judgment, when nothing can be hidden, and everything will be revealed, and their only real hope is to turn in repentance and rely on Jesus, the Savior, Who told us:

"Love one another"
"So in everything, do to others as you would have them do to you"

I have no doubt that you believe it.

Why do you think that I must believe it? Is that the only way it can be construed?

The only permissible way...

But hey, prove me wrong -- I'll freely admit that he might be doing it on purpose... can you freely admit he might have made a fool of himself?

I'm not holding my breath...

Is it possible that every time the left comes up with some kind of stupid question and Trump gives them a stupid reply on purpose just to mess with you? How many brain hernias has he given the left?

I don't deny that Donald is a master of the stupid reply -- why do you assume that they're all on purpose?

You supported an amateur precisely because he's an amateur -- is it so much a stretch of the imagination to think that he acts amateurish?

They go apoplectic over everything from starting nuclear war with North Korea

..which he did threaten to do... or are you not allowed to remember that?

to what shoes his wife wears

Well, at least this one doesn't look like "an ape in heels."

Why do you assume I said all are on purpose?

The President wasn’t my first choice. I only supported him when it came between him and that walking waste of skin he ran against.

As for the ‘amateur’ crack. I have to laugh. For an amateur, he sure is getting a whole lot of good things done.

Here comes the brain hernia!

Because the alternative is to claim that Donald occasionally makes a fool of himself -- and you won't do that.

he President wasn’t my first choice. I only supported him when it came between him and that walking waste of skin he ran against.

And he thanks you for your hatred.

I don't deny that Donald has managed to do some good -- he was fortunate to inherit a country that was in pretty good shape, and has managed to keep the good trends going.

Here comes the brain hernia!

Try an aspirin.

Is he making a fool of himself or making fools of the media that is right now going crazy over an answer to a hypothetical question?


And if you want to speak about hatred, well just try to point out a positive that our President does and stand back for more hatred than hell can contain.

Are you sure about that? I agree that I never thought it would be necessary to ask such a hypothetical question....until Donald Trump

Done and done. 17 million dollars divided by 139.6 million taxpayers comes to approx. $121,776 each.

By way of comparison, the cost of a single F-14 Tomcat is $38 million, which comes to $272,206 per taxpayer per jet -- and the government made 712 of them...

Do the math.

Grumman F-14 Tomcat - Wikipedia

Your math is waaaaaay off.

$17 million divided by 139.6 million taxpayers is not $121,776. It's $.0121776 (i.e. just about a penny per person).

Costs skyrocket for the Tomcat to 2 cents a head.
