Hope the weather comes through for yall. Here in Mississippi in the town i live in, we are hosting the Mississippi Plein air Paint The Town even in October 4 and 5. So getting ready for this in October

Log into Facebook

I'll have to come out one year; because for some strange reason, I seem to paint better when I'm in another country. Probably something to do with the variations in value. London tends to be very flat, even in the summer.

Yes we would be glad to have you, Mississippi has started to have quite a few Plein air events. Just google Mississippi Plen air events or keep up with that facebook page, most of the events in Mississippi are posted there.


Anytime you are in America want to just come and paint in Mississippi the invitation is open. The landscape is anything from flat delta land where you can see for a good distance. To hills and country side with barns and hay bales, cows. etc.. There is also around my area quite a good bit of water scenes.

This is a HUGE problem!

Trump is a convicted felon.
He still has many open indictments for more felonies.
Trump speaks in terms of vague slogans (such as "I will fix everything..."), but does not seem to have any real policies.

Some topics that immediately come to mind to me, are...

1 Why would he be addressing "Christians"?
Why not address ALL American citizens who are eligible to vote?

2 Why does Trump not understand, that his lifestyle and choices disqualify him
from being some representative of orthodox Christians, in the government?
Trump is not a Protestant Christian. He has threatened judges and their families,
and suggested that the lynching of Nancy Pelosi and Mike Pence (outside the due
process of law) was the right thing to do. This is not Christian behavior.
Biden was not a Catholic Christian (not given how he supported abortion).

3 Would any local Christian congregation hire Trump to be their pastor?
This is a ridiculous concept. Who would trust Trump to even be their financial
advisor?

4 Why does Trump continue to NOT HAVE any specific policies, that he is running on?
Why this continual reference to "solving everything"?
Trump denied that the 2025 Plan was his outline of his policies,
even though this 900 page document fills out in quite a bit of detail how Trump
would seek to use legislation and the presidential powers to carry out his "slogans".

Why does Trump continue to deny that this 2025 Plan, written by his close former advisors
and friends, does not really flesh out his policies? This Plan includes the topics that Trump
has repeatedly asserted in past speeches.

If Trump has no specific policies, then he should be honest and say that.

If Trump's specific policies are different than the 2025 Plan,
then he should lay them out in more detail before voters, instead of
asking Christians to "trust him". After all, Trump is rich enough to have
hired a thousand managers to write specific policies to carry out his
"slogans". By now, he should have had detailed policies to present
to American voters.
---------- ----------

It is disturbing to see this candidate for president, who has been convicted
of 34 felonies for financial fraud and trying to deceive American voters
as to his bad character, appealing to "Christians" to trust him, to "fix everything".
Trump's history, says that he is untrustable, and is not at all concerned with
building up America.

Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election, because in her overweening arrogance
near the end of the campaign, when she had a substantial lead over Trump, she
started to mock religious conservatives. She seem to think that all religious
conservatives are anti-intellectual hillbillies.

Now, Trump, with his 34 felony convictions, and his Tucker Carlson conspiracy
theories, and his vague slogans about "fixing everything", also seems to think
that religious conservatives in America are anti-intellectul hillbillies.

The Republican Party has no credible candidate for president of the United States.
Well...don't vote for him.

Well...don't vote for him.
Then we’re have to vote EVERY four years!

By going with Trump, that’ll all disappear and “our betters” will “take care of us”.

Sounds great until one gives it a wee bit of thought.

There are many Christians that don't vote at all .... his statement was direct to those folks.

I'll definitely make a point of coming out - I'm quite a regular in the US. You always seem to have more fun over there, this British "doomed" mentality is really getting old. The one thing I notice regardless of the State, is that Americans are always so optimistic. Brits give up too easily; we're too "real" - and usually in a pessimistic way.

By the way, as a side, I swear that Trump was once a democrat. Did I dream that?

Oh, well. Whatever.
