I think that President's Trump is answered prayer from God above in starting to heal our land from the destructive actions of Clinton, Obama, and the militant atheists and homosexual crowd. "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14

May God above bless all of you.

I think God is using President Trump in spite of this nation's falling away. I'm sure the atheist/homosexual crowd and Hollywood are seething about now. Sometimes God has to show us how good His provision is just before He turns it over to us and we really mess it up. I hope that's not the case. I do believe the prayers of God's people are going up before Him but, I'm uncertain how God's will might deal with a majority wicked and corrupt people.

I am thankful President Trump is working hard to restore some of our Christian freedoms and rights. I just hope he can get enough done to make a difference. It was wonderful to see him sign the repeal of the "Johnson Amendment", BUT Congress needs to act on the full repeal of the "Johnson Amendment", otherwise it's merely a temporary gesture.

I  was disheartened when suffering through Comey's fiasco earlier this week. When asked about the IRS targeting the "Tea Party" and other conservative organizations, Comey admitted that it was POSSIBLE there was wrong doing but he  "couldn't make a case" because he "couldn't prove intent".  He also admitted that Anthony Weiner and Huma abedin HAD unlawfully kept and shared classified information on an insecure computer. But (Comey) said he "couldn't make a case" because he "couldn't prove intent". Then he again admitted it was likely a conflict of interest when past AG Lynch had met with former president Bill Clinton on the tarmac/plane, BUT again claimed he "couldn't make a case" because he "couldn't prove intent". (Then he gushed over how much he LOVES and respects Loretta Lynch). He also admitted that Hillary had classified emails on an unsecure server, AND that she had SHARED some of those classified emails with Huma Abedin and her former spouse Anthony Weiner, but AGAIN Comey claimed he "couldn't make a case" because he "couldn't prove intent". Then when the question of Susan Rice and her alleged misuse of unmasking and disseminating  classified information could be a crime and should have a special prosecutor requested, he hemmed and hawed and the subject was changed to Mike Flynn (who is a democrat, by the way, and his security clearance was given by the Obama administration), Comey THEN decides that "perhaps a special prosecutor should be considered"????

It is more than apparent that FBI director James Comey is playing partisan politics... but what was more troubling was his apparent lack of respect for the LAW and the CONSTITUTION when Ted Cruz brought forth the legal code showing without a shadow of a doubt that it was/is not Comey's JOB to "prove intent", but to recommend future action to the DOJ and AG. Comey seem nonplussed. He has no respect for the law, nor his position as director of FBI. But instead is rather smug in his position, believing he cannot be ousted (and it IS difficult to remove an acting FBI director prior to his completion of a 10 year tenure). Obama appointed him in 2013, and if he is to serve his full 10 year tenure, he won't leave office until 2023 :( 

The entire time I was watching this dog and pony show... I kept thinking of Isaiah 59:14-15
14 "And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter."
15 "Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the Lord saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment."
 

While I do believe President Trump is acting to bring back Christian freedoms and constitutional rights, I also think that the 'deep state' (whom I believe to be led by evil demonic influence) is too deeply entrenched for even the best of presidents to unravel and defeat.
I believe God heard our voices on election night, and I also believe the Lord is watching over Pres.Trump... there are so many death threats and open avowing to do him physical harm, besides the basest of derogatory remarks airing on television.... That the Lord MUST be protecting him. But I do not think the US has a long term life. As sad as that is to say, I believe there is a reason we are not noted in Bible prophecy. I am hoping that the ruination of the US comes AFTER the rapture, and I am also hoping that the reason the Lord is right now protecting not just the President, but many of us civilians, is because He desired to give us a reprieve to share the gospel with the lost. I fully believe that since most end time prophecy is lined up and at the door that we won't be here much longer. We can clearly see that characteristics of the 'perilous last day' (2 Tim.3:1-7, 13) are evident. (If you don't believe that, try having a CIVIL conversation with anyone on the left on social media... you will be called names that should make a hardened criminal blush).  While the world appears to be falling apart, it is actually falling into place... into God's prophetic timeline. 

Maranatha!

Brethren,

I am of the persuasion the Paris Climate Accord was not in the best national interests of America, the American workers, or our sovereignty.  President Trump just announced that the United States is withdrawing from the Paris Climate Accord. I am of the opinion that his actions are a benefit to America and a detriment to the Socialist agenda of the globalists.

In my estimation, God did bless America with President Trumps decision.

I personally believe that puny mankind has zero effect on global climate. I also believe that this lie of"climate change" (once called global warming) is continually pushed in order to sway public opinion for the purpose of imposing more and more regulations with the end result being totalitarian control of all industry. They want complete control of "health care"( who lives or dies) and they want total control of all means of production, including agriculture (control of who gets to eat).

I totally agree.

The globalist, the liberals, the Socialist, the Communist are using pseudo-science in order to gain control, by excessive regulation, over the citizens of the United States.

The House of Representatives recently passed two of Trump's bills that will be a benefit to all Americans. I need to correct this statement with a statement by HappyChristian. HappyChristian wrote, "I also want to correct an incorrect statement made in an earlier post. Kate's Law is NOT "Trump's bill." It was written and introduced by Sen. Ted Cruz as a companion to a bill introduced in the House by Rep. Matt Salmon. In 2015. Before Trump ever became a Republican or threw his hat in the ring for POTUS. Bills like this often take time to get passed. This one only took 2 years, which is kind of amazing, actually."  

1. "Kate's Law." This bill would make it easier to punish illegal immigrants who commit crimes on U.S soil.

2. Blocking funding to the "Sanctuary Cities," that are harboring and aiding criminal illegal immigrants.

President Trump said in response to the passing of these bills, "I applaud the House for passing two crucial measures to save and protect American lives ... The implementation of these two policies will make our communities safer." I agree with President's Trumps assessment and statement.

The Supreme Court of the United States upheld (with some qualifications), President Trump's Travel ban from 6 Muslim countries.

http://video.foxnews.com/v/5490864395001/?#sp=show-clips

 

This is great news and will help defend the borders of the United States

Also, please take notice, the decision of the Supreme Court was unanimous; 9-0.

One of the great things about the Trump presidency is that he is bringing back the rule of Constitutional Law to our Judicial system.

After the Supreme court upheld the Travel Ban issued by Trump, the socialist in the Sate of Hawaii sought to overturn the travel ban in the Hawaiian Federal Court. The Federal Judge denied their claim, "Last week, attorneys for the federal government said that the 'close' family relationships allowed under the President Trump's travel ban were based on definitions outlined by immigration law. The state's emergency motion – denied on Thursday by Judge Derrick Watson in Honolulu – sought to make sure that the ban couldn't be enforced against other family members, such as grandparents, aunts and uncles.

In his ruling, Watson reasoned that since the portion of the ban Hawaii was seeking to clarify was authored by the Supreme Court, the state's lawyers should seek clarification directly from them."

Judge Derrick Watson then stated, "This Court will not upset the Supreme Court’s careful balancing and “equitable judgment” ... nor would this district court presume to substitute its own understanding of the stay for that of the originating Court’s “exercise of discretion and judgment.”

What I find is that our Judicial Courts are in the process of ruling by the law  of the land and not by the social agenda of many of the rights groups, democrats, liberals, and other socialist minded individuals. When President Trump issued the Travel Ban he issued it with the definitions already in effect and not the definitions of the activist liberal fanatics.

I don't really understand your system, but I thought you all promoted the right of states over Fed govt.  I suppose when it suits you, you go the opposite way?

I don't reply to this thread because I do not adulate Trump, but I wanted to address this. Our country was set up as a federated republic, which means we are composed of (supposed to be, anyway) independent republics (states) with a (relatively weak) central government. Of late, more and more power has been taken by the feds, and far too many people have ceded that power to them. 

However, the Constitution grants the authority to the federal government regarding things like immigration. Article 4, section 4 states: The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them from invasion"...and that would include Hawaii.  Illegal immigration is indeed an invasion upon our country. IMO, the travel ban doesn't go far enough. We need to adopt Ted Cruz' plan, which would make it untenable for illegals to stay here and they would self-deport. That would be a good companion to the travel ban.

I neither like nor trust Trump, but when he does something right, it should be acknowledged. This travel ban is a good first step, and should have been done long ago.

I also want to correct an incorrect statement made in an earlier post. Kate's Law is NOT "Trump's bill." It was written and introduced by Sen.

As I said, I don't post in this thread, but as a moderator I do have to at least skim it once in a while. ;)   When Trump does something right - like the travel ban - he deserves the credit. But he does not deserve credit for something he had nothing to do with, like Kate's Law.

HappyChristian,

Thank for answering Invicita's question. I agree with your complete post. I also want to thank you for letting me, and all of us, know that it was Senator Ted Cruz who initiated Kate's Law as a companion to a bill sponsored by House Representative Matt Salmon.

Brethren,

HappyChristian is correct in her summation. The Travel Ban does not go far enough to stop the invasion of illegal aliens into America and our Federal government has far too much power over the rights of the Sates. In this case President Trump did though use his power as President for the good of America.

Also, as I wrote earlier in this thread (and mentioned a couple of times), I do not agree with the character, his role model as a President, nor a lot of the policies, of Trump. I just feel he is doing some good executive actions in his capacity as President that are right, and great, for America. President Trump is trying to stop the tide of the socialists, communists, and political activists to harm America and I do applaud him for that.

Brethren,

..............Donald Trump made a great economic speech at the, "Detroit Economic Club," in Detroit, MI

 I rarely watch full speeches by any politician, and, personally did not care to hear Trump in a full speech, but, after hearing what he had to say initially, I decided to watch the full speech. I thought it was a great spreech that is worthy of our attention. Here is the link:

Quite frankly, it was almost like hearing the financial and regulatory polices of President Ronald Reagan.

I think the economic policies of a Donald Trump administration would help the financial health of America.............

Alan

I'm not too familiar with President Trump's economic policies but I do sense that the economy has been on the rise since he took office. I will note that our business does increase between the months of February and May, but it's now July and it's still going strong. I have probably done more business in the past five months than I did for each of the last eight years. I think business people in general have more confidence in the economy right now and I hope it stays that way. More business means more jobs, and more jobs means more business. I wish I could say the same for my sheep business but, I haven't sold a sheep in a few months now and I have 5 figures worth that I'm going to have to feed all summer with no guarantee they will sell. I was told by one of the auction buyers that it's the Muslims, who he has dealings with, who are worried about what Trump is going to do. I say it's bad that sheep sales are down but great if these heathens are worried. I hope he ships the whole lot out and bans all of the Muslims. I was fine with them until they began attacking us.
