“I will be going back to Butler, Pennsylvania for a big and beautiful rally, honoring the soul of our beloved firefighting hero, Corey, and those brave patriots injured two weeks ago. What a day it will be — fight, fight fight! Stay tuned for details,” Trump wrote.
Other U.S. leaders could use some of Trump's courage.

Can you explain to me how this is an example of courage? He's not in any greater danger in Butler then he is anywhere else.

What exactly makes this so courageous?
Just curious, where you ever shot at and almost killed? Or been to an area where an extremely violent crime was perpetrated on you and the criminal was caught? A lot of folks get PTSD or have a bit of fear from something like that and won't go back due to the memories of that moment.

Trumps courage isn't about he's overcoming the fear of being shot at, it's overcoming the natural human responses and returning to an area where great harm was done and overcoming that trauma.

That goes for anyone who does such a thing. Some people can't do that.

I know of a man who was stoned , beaten , ran out of cities
persecuted and chased by others .
Yet GOD gave that man bodlness and he went even back to the same cities
wherein he had been stoned , whipped , and etc , to ensure the welfare of the desciples .
His name was paul . He asked the church a few times to also pray that utterance could be given him
that he may bodly speak as he ought too . Boldness is but a prayer away and its high time
for the saints to arise and point to Jesus the Christ and all holy and pure doctrine .

Courage or arrogance?
Though a man can surely be full of arrogance
arrogance often will take a back seat when shot at .
In this case i do not think its arrogance . Because bullets flying
have a way of knocking the air out of the arrogance balloon , well at least
in certain places . Do beware however of what i say next .
The agenda is flowing down from both sides , from the religious leaders as well as media and education .
AND believe you me , MANY gonna wish they had no part or lott in that agenda but had rather stayed far from it
and rather exposed it .

Nah I don’t see it that way. There’s no greater threat to him there than there is anywhere else on the campaign trail. It’s really odd how some people seem to want to practically deify this dude.

You really don't get the idea of returning to a place where you had a traumatic or life threatening experience? I was in a car accident on a particular street in town and I avoid driving down it now even though it's just an ordinary street.

Well you're entitled to your opinion. I honestly don't expect you to say anything positive about him. Even though there are those out there who couldn't do what he's going to do out of fear for the reasons I gave.

There are people who won't go near the water due to trauma they had around the water. Unfortunately what we see is just people have such visceral dislike of the man they just can't bring themselves to recognize anything good.

It's a psychological effect that we have to watch out for. Either we dislike someone so badly that we can't recognize anything good or we regard someone so highly that we can't recognize anything bad.

I can't even count the number of times that I was "almost killed" and yet, I manage to live my life. How courageous I am!
:rolleyes:
Can't count huh? That's quite a bit. I take it you were in the military on a battlefield? Or maybe extremely unlucky?

Sure, just like Donald was. :wave:

No, just the contrary.
Ah, avoidance then.

Well.unlucky to have suffered countless brushes with death. Lucky that you survived the countless brushes with death. The odds apparently were in your favor to suffer so many brushes with death and still survive.

I wonder what the odds actually are for something like that....
