Does the title fit you or someone you know? Or, they are NOT voting for Trump cuz he is vulgar, or an adulterer, or a bad moral person, or whatever?????
The following link does a great (IMHO) job making these excuses - exactly what they are - void of any logic.

This paragraph made me laugh out loud.

"But maybe you are just playing cards with the hand you were dealt. Maybe you are just making a decision between the two available options. A national election in the United States is like playing blob tag with tens of millions of people. It is a contest between the two largest sumo wrestlers the world has ever seen. And the primary system for selecting the two final candidates is like a demolition derby. The last two cars running are the only possible winners. It is no use sitting there at the demolition derby wishing you had gone to the tractor pull instead. That’s no longer one of your options."

Depends - do we keep the Senate?

The general political analysis is that the presidency and the Senate stand or fall together for the GOP. Which is why they had best get ACB confirmed this month.

Yea, lets make sure the Senate approves ACB for the Court and not AOC!

Wow, looks like excellent research. I was trained in Political Science for my college degree, so I can tell.

This makes it imperative to vote Rep for Senate. Let's be real, outlawing abortion or holding back bills that would expand protections for aborters have to find gridlock somewhere.

I fully expect Biden to win unless President Trump gets something approaching divine intervention on his behalf. There are a variety of markers leading me to believe that in terms of political science. That means that those debating voting for President Trump or third party (myself included for various reasons), should vote Rep vote for House and Senate to hold the Democrats at bay. This is Florida I live in, so I'll be voting Rep for all State offices, since I agree with their policies.

Election just shows how far away from God and His ways we now are as a nation, as we now are reaping the result of the leftist taking over education and putting their bad thoughts into our children for last decades! This marxist/socialist's agenda never would have flown prior generations, and still see this as a vote against trump more so then pro Biden!
And the darkness hates the light...

Do you think as a nation we were “closer to God” when blacks were enslaved and forced resettlement and genocide was being committed against native Americans? If not, when is this time frame when you think that as a nation we were “closer to God”?

8 years out of 244 years as a nation. :Wink

There is always a lot of ugliness in politics but at least back then in America in the 1980s we could disagree and discuss policy issues without hating each other’s guts. Reagan was a good-natured fella and I think it helped the public discourse.

And the OP is a very well-argued case for voting to keep Trump and Pence in office for another term. And don't forget, the VP is also in the Senate.

Reagan was a class act. But who is it that hates others' guts? Your narrative is skewed left. The progressive left is bent on silencing anyone who disagrees with them, not through argument or debate, but through intimidation and violence. And the Dems and their MSM justify it, egg it on, and call it "peaceful protesting" and "making your voice heard."

I do not base ones faith in Christ on their politics. I'm sure there are Christians who vote Democratic blindly, just because their families have always been Democrat. Such a vote is certainly in ignorance. But then, most blacks don't vote for democrats due to the real issues. They vote for democrats because blacks vote for democrats. That's where black power is located along with the NAACP, SPLC, BLM, and NFL.

The Democratic party is so contrary to all that Christians believe and stand for, I cannot see how any Christian could vote for anyone who was Democratic. But I know some will. Race is a strong divider. I wouldn't vote for a Christian conservative if he ran as a Democrat. Voting is easy for me. Straight ticket.
