Well that’s good, as it’s beneath the office he holds, and should be repudiated by you every time he does so.
But yes, public/elected officials are fair game for mockery, criticism, sideswipe, sleight, etc., etc.,
I will tell you however that if you were quick to repudiate the Trumpers here who are quite filthy and vile in their mockery of Democratic Party leaders and ex democrat presidents, as you are to scold me, at least I could say that you’re consistent.
The Dem Party platform today is sheer bolshevism.
Any educated person knows what the bolsheviks did in Russia.
Therefore, many voted for Trump.
I myself don’t lie politicians, lawyers, barbers, dentists and doctors, but sometimes you need to use them.
You just don’t want to be used by them.
Regardless of what you like gazing from afar, Biden defeated Trump in a super landslide and he will not have a second term. He’s a loser…
You are gazing too close and lose the whole picture.
Here are the criminals in Georgia.
May they spend many years in prison.
Not going to happen…
Biden 2020…
This is Georgia.
Not the one in the former Soviet Union.
Georgia, US of A.

A staffer and close family friend of Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp died in a tragic car wreck Friday morning, hours after the governor called for a signature audit of 2020 election votes.
There’s no connection between the two…
I seldom come to this site–at least, I have not until lately; I have simply found your responses in my e-mail box, and have responded to them–so I am really unsure as to what others may have said.
I do, however, think that both Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi–oh, and Adam Schiff, also–deserve serious reprimands. (No, not for their core beliefs–but for their behavior; and that includes their intemperate speech.)
Well, that is close to where I sit.
Donald Trump is brash, arrogant, obnoxious, coarse, crude, and often rude.
In 2016, I nonetheless preferred Donald Trump to Hillary Clinton.
And in 2020, I preferred him to Joe Biden.
In my opinion, he has made some excellent policy choices; and some equally excellent nominations to the federal courts.
I base my vote entirely upon policies–and not at all upon personality (or even character).
Fine, you’re off the hook…
Well, I believe as a matter of principle and for the integrity of the office, particularly going forward, that Trumpers have made a grave mistake overlooking Trump’s nastiness simply because they like the policies… And I have the harshest criticism of the Christian community who made such a vocal stink about the importance of character during the Clinton years, only to now announce that they support candidates based upon policy and not on character…
But the hypocrisy is of no surprise to me…
Yes, and namely Mc Cain…
Donald Trump has, certainly, often been nasty; but to elevate that above policy choices (and even above nominations to the federal courts) is, in my opinion, the true “grave mistake.”
To deeply criticize Bill Clinton’s lack of character, while overlooking a similar flaw in Donald Trump, would, indeed, seem hypocritical.
My guess, however, is that many individual Christians–to speak of “the Christian community,” as though it were some monolithic entity, is simply a mistake–“overlook” these character flaws because Donald Trump personally opposes abortion–and, more importantly, he has nominated to the federal courts others who do; and they may set important precedents that will likely allow hundreds of thousands (perhaps millions!) of others to live.
With regards to Christians and their affinity for Trump, nastiness, rudeness, name calling, mocking, sleights to women and anyone else that doesn’t toe his line, notwithstanding, yeah, they’re monolithic. Trump doesn’t personally oppose abortion, he could care less about that, he set aside his earlier positions to run on the Republican ticket. And the fact that an American is dying every 30 seconds of Covid and he’s too full of himself and his own pity party for having been defeated in the presidential election to even address it, has/is all overlooked by retrumplicans because he gave them judges…
As I have said previously, Trump’s personality–and even his character–is far from sterling. I would certainly not claim otherwise.
But Christians–like all others–look to see what is likely to happen, overall (not just in the next four years, but in the next 40 or 50 years). And federal-court selections are a very good indicator of this.
If the federal courts overturn abortion-on-demand (or even just chip away at it; I rather doubt that Roe. v. Wade will be entirely overturned), that is likely to last for quite awhile.
And Christians are not typically zombies; like other people, they actually think critically–and consider these ramifications.
A long winded way of saying that Christians shelved their piety and phony insistence on the office holder being a person of character and integrity, finding that this schmuck presented them with judges that they like…
No amount of wiggling around that will change this fact that is well recognized by a whole lot of people. Even Christians are hypocrites…
I do not think that it is hypocritical to consider the nomination of judges and justices that will restrict abortion to be a subordinate value, when compared with exceptional character (or even pretty good character) in a president.
But the left wishes to lambaste evangelical Christians–who serve as an impediment to their progressive agenda, and are therefore the objects of their severe disdain.
It’s absolutely hypocritical of the evangelical to have made such a stink about character during the Clinton years only to cozy up to the most amoral President we’ve ever had just because he’s packing the court with judges they think will serve their interests. And I’m certainly not the only American to have observed this…
Evangelicals are a bunch of shabbos goys and Israel firsters.
Joo Biden is a Pharisee.
Yep, that’s affirmative…
