    Also, both lied. No difference there.
    Not so much the location, but the timing is important to many people (I don't think calling people "Trumpy" is particularly useful).

    I agree.

    Again, I don't think "Trumpy" is helpful. I'm not certain the distinction one might make between the two presidents necessarily makes one a hypocrite, but I agree it doesn't look good. I don't know what it means to wear Trump's name on one's forehead unless you're conflating Trump with the antichrist, which I think is nonsense.

      They wear hats with the word "Trump" on them. How is that not wearing Trump's name on their forehead? If this resembles something from the Book of Revelation, maybe it is just a coincidence. And maybe not. I don't know. They probably use their right names to vote for Trump as well, which would put Trump's name on their right hands.

      I don't know if Trump is "The" Antichrist, or "An" Antichrist, or just someone who is the complete opposite of Christ. But in anycase, none of this is good.

        I haven't seen these Trump hats you're referring to. It kinda sounds like you're referring to hats that say "Make America Great Again," but those don't have the name "Trump" on them, at least none that I've seen. I'm almost certain that there are hats of president's names from previous campaigns on them. I don't think there's anything nefarious about that.

          Really? That's all they wear around here.

          You are probably right. There might not be anything bad with wearing Trump on a person's forehead. They might safe. Who really knows what the mark of the beast is anyway? They are probably okay. I guess. maybe.

          • Nice Elephant hurl there...how about pick one? I'm not responding to a wall of unsupported text with no context.

            On second thought, never mind. This type of dishonest posting tells me all I need to know about you. It's obvious from all your posts in general, and this one in particular that discussion with you will be a futile exercise on both our parts.

              I was TOLD to post it all in one post. I guess I'm dammed if I do and dammed if I don't.
              Mossrose scolded me for putting these in separate posts.

              You Trumpys are really dishonest. You take after your master.

              Anyway, the point is Trump's pattern of continual dishonesty. Which all of you approve of.

                That is literally insane. Go to God and repent of bearing false witness.

                How can you say I support child murder? Don't you have any conscience left?
                Yes, using YOUR VERY OWN LOGIC, you do, in fact, support child murder.

                Your own words and logic condemn you. Just as you assume Christians support immorality if they support Trump IN ANY WAY I assume only those who wish to keep Roe v Wade in law oppose Trump. The logic is IDENTICAL. Therefore, I can FAIRLY assume you support abortion - and any denial is just you trying to wiggle out of your obvious guilt.

                Maybe you should examine your own conscience, given your condemnation of others and pro-abortion activities.

                Or at least a good look at how you apply your logic.

                  She was referring to abortion, I believe. Not murder of a born child. You are just being silly, now.

                    Hmm. No, I'm sorry. I'm totally not familiar with that hat. I've never seen anyone wear one where I live at least (and I live in Trump country).

                    Doesn't appear much different from these hats either,

                      I scolded you for repeatedly quoting the same post and basically flooding the forum with one liners. The general rule of thumb is to say something and then wait for a response. Not to do post after post after post with these things. And yes, Littlejoe is correct, it would help to put references into your posts so we can refer to the reference and not just take your word for it.

                      And you might not want to start calling people liars around here. We moderate for that.

                        The facts support the argument. You don't get a special logic all your own to browbeat others with for going on five pages now. Using YOUR logic, the conclusion is completely reasonable and the fact in evidence - your hatred of Trump - supports the conclusion.

                        You don't like being accused unreasonably, then stop accusing others unreasonably.

                        Your call.

                            Those aren't hats with the AntiChrist's name of them! LOL
                            (Well, maybe that last one)

                            Originally, I never said that meant they were worshiping the beast. I just said that they put his name on their foreheads. That's all I meant. You brought up the similarity to the Book of Revelation.
                            Around here, they literally put Trump's name on their foreheads. Draw your own conclusions. I wouldn't put his name on my forehead, even if he isn't the antichrist. I heard the Access Hollywood tape, and all of the other garbage. I had to touch one of these filthy things once, when someone put one in the Church foyer so TRUMP was the first thing you saw when you entered the doors. I turned it around so that the church didn't look like a Trump Rally. Then I washed my hands.
