Would you vote for a person who believes or does these things?
1) claims to be a Christian but shows us over and over again that he (she) does not take the Word of Christ seriously (just does whatever...)
2) claims to be in favor of the US's chosen form of government but constantly breaks duly enacted laws, including the tenets of the Constitution
3) allows any STRANGER into our country without being vetted, when many of these strangers are robbing, raping and murdering Americans
4) someone who is using Americans' tax dollars to support those who crash the border, @ the same time cutting benefits to Americans
5) someone who has caused homelessness to rise
6) someone who allows law-breakers to have the jobs Americans once had (or could have had)
Me?
I would never, ever do that.
Would you?
Y
or
N?
Please, prove them then.
Let's just look at one at a time. All one has to do here is watch the daily news. But here are some sources for you.3) allows any STRANGER into our country without being vetted, when many of these strangers are robbing, raping and murdering Americans
I believe our leaders are in their positions because of the perfect will of God or the permissive will of God. It is sad but true many cannot tell the difference.1: Being a Christian is not a prerequisite for holding office in my opinion. I'd rather have a competent and relatively wise non-Christian than an incompetent Christian fool. I'd be more suspicious of a person who claimed to be a Christian but obviously wasn't.

Yeah, you aren't starting off strong. This is about the amount of people encountered by the Border Patrol, not the amount of people let in. In fact, it shows that the Biden Admin actually deports a slightly larger percentage of those encounters than the Trump admin did. That's strange behavior for somebody who supposedly lets in any stranger without vetting.7.2M Migrants Have Illegally Crossed US Border Under Biden, Exceeding the Populations of 36 States?
The immigration statistics were shared on X and originated in an article that was published by Fox News.www.snopes.com
Your first link was a fact check of this story, so I don't feel the need to get into it again.
Those people are vetted and admitted under his parole authority.
Once again, this opinion piece looks at encounters, which is people being stopped by the Border Patrol, and tries to make it seem as if they were all admitted into the United States, without looking at how many of them were expelled.Matthews: Illegal immigrants double under Biden — and that’s just the start

Yup. Like your belief that Biden allows any stranger into the country without vetting.We could do this all day but people will see what they want to see and believe what they want to believe
Yup, and I've shown the facts in this case.but facts are facts.
Yeah, it's not.Number 3 from the OP is a proven fact.
I don't disagree, provided I understand what you mean.I believe our leaders are in their positions because of the perfect will of God or the permissive will of God. It is sad but true many cannot tell the difference.
Let me try to explain.
Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
Sometimes God will allow a leader for reasons other than his perfect will. Sometimes to bless the people ,His perfect will , and sometime to teach, correct or punish that would be His permissive will.
In the OT God at times allowed leaders the people clamored for but not the one God preferred.
I agree being a Christian is not a requirement but many Christians try to impose that standard without much success.
You can disagree and many on this forum will but it is my sincere belief Trump was in office because God chose him and Biden is in office because God allowed him.
In any event both were ordained of God!
One could validly make the point that this was INCREDIBLY STUPID!3: Depends on the degree of vetting you mean etc. Back in the day immigrants were allowed through Ellis Island in New York with virtually no vetting of their background etc. They had to go through the immigration process but it didn't include background checks or anything like that. They didn't even have to give their real name.
Sounds like Trump.1) claims to be a Christian but shows us over and over again that he (she) does not take the Word of Christ seriously (just does whatever...)
2) claims to be in favor of the US's chosen form of government but constantly breaks duly enacted laws, including the tenets of the Constitution
… which is a result of the NRA which blocks any attempt to regulate the possession of arms.Look at us today: one of the highest, if not the highest murder rate in the world
This is for decades, it doesn't matter whether the POTUS was red or blue.high divorce rate
The USA is one of the richest countries in the world, and now look who is in the WH.now look who is in the WH!
oh, like Congress people?5: It depends, the fact is that if we are ever going to fix the massive problems with our economy and our society in general, it is going to require policies that hurt. Medicine sometimes is painful. The question is would you rather die slowly to avoid the pain, or take the medicine and eventually be healthy again? Cutting a lot of our government spending may hurt a lot of people who are living off the government, but it needs to be done.
Women in domestic violence situations (in which many murders occur)… which is a result of the NRA which blocks any attempt to regulate the possession of arms.
That would result in more additional deaths than deaths that could be avoided.Women in domestic violence situations (in which many murders occur)
should have a gun. Most of them don't
Its pure statistics: For every murder prevented by guns you have more deaths (murder, accidents) that outweight the prevention.So much for your rant agains the NRA
At whose expense, the victims?That would result in more additional deaths than deaths that could be avoided.
What you don't understand is that normal people don't go out and kill people with their guns.That would result in more additional deaths than deaths that could be avoided.

There are countries where burglars normally carry no guns. But in a country where you expect the people you want to rob may have a gun, virtually every burglar has a gun - and will use it when he wants to escape safely.What you don't understand is that normal people don't go out and kill people with their guns.
Most burglaries happen when people are not home and burglars avoid homes that have dogs. For those countries that don't have guns and a nut case decides to invade your home you better have a bigger weapon especially if you are female.There are countries where burglars normally carry no guns. But in a country where you expect the people you want to rob may have a gun, virtually every burglar has a gun - and will use it when he wants to escape safely.
I agree here. We do need laws.And there are normal people who have children that understand how to get access to their parent's gun, and are careless enough to kill another child without intention.
Humans will kill each other whether they have a gun or not because if you look at the 2021 homicide map you'll see that a lot of people were killed in countries that have better gun laws than we do. If the world keeps going the way it is we all should be worried about nukes because they do a better job at killing humans than every gun in the world. Arms sales is a business for many countires and criminals will find them in the black market.You cannot imagine every scenario, nor do I. So instead of speculating, one should look at statistics which show: Stricter rules on guns mean less deaths. This is a fact.
Because he doesn't need to and He'll set up his government in the end.I don't see Jesus running as a politican at all.
