    Default Trump: Why Did We Wait 100 Years to Mark a Centennial?

    Wha? Does the "D" in his middle name stand for "Dunce" or Duh"?

    Does Donald Trump know what defines a centennial?

    The question arose on Monday during a White House event commemorating the passage of a bill honoring the women’s suffrage movement. The Women’s Suffrage Centennial Commemorative Coin Act, which directs the Treasury Department to mint up to 400,000 $1 silver coins celebrating the 19th Amendment, passed with unanimous consent in Congress and is one of the least controversial bills to land on the president’s desk.

    But as Trump opened his mouth in an attempt to lavish praise on himself for the bill—on its own, an absurd moment—trouble quickly arrived. “I’m curious,” he asked from the Oval Office, “why wasn’t it done a long time ago? I guess the answer to that is because now I’m president, we get things done.”

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Here are the entire remarks, verbatim. Not quite the context the left loves to make it out to be. Take a read:

    (That explains religious conservatards and evangelical republicunts)
    Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in which the Court ruled that the Constitution of the United States protects a pregnant woman's liberty to choose to have an abortion without excessive government restriction. If the domestic taliban known as the "religious right" can't abide by that law of the land, they can pack up and go somewhere else. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

    Trump's only religion is himself and the Evangelicals who support him are such phony Christians they would crucify Jesus if he returned and actually preached the Gospel.

    Talk about "grasping". What would have stopped Congress from passing an act honoring the 50 year anniversary with a HALF DOLLAR coin? No where do I see Mr. Trump using the word centennial.

    In fact....if you wanted to honor the 100th anniversary of Women's suffrage....why was there never a congressional act honoring Susan B. Anthony on her death or birthday, with a special coin on the anniversary of her death or birth? There are many examples where a leftist congress "COULD HAVE" had a 100 year anniversary concerning Women's Suffrage.

    But....the Truth is, Democrats fought tooth and nail to stop women and minorities from having the right to vote and own property. Truth.....democrats were in the minority in passing the 19th amendment....the UP/DOWN was 304-89 to pass …….40% of the democrats voted against the amendment, 9% of the republicans voted against the amendment.

    Reality. This was not the 1st vote on the 19th amendment......Woodrow Wilson (the progressive...was against the amendment ever being ratified)….the 19th Amendment was presented to Congress for a vote in 1878 by a California republican by the name of A.A. Sargent....a democrat controlled congress voted it down....much like they rejected the Civil Rights acts of the 50s and 60s

    Now you are questioning why.....an act of congress could not have been introduced SOONER honoring those who fought for the civil rights of women?

    He is not an atheist due to deep contemplation of the universe or a some kind of profound enlightenment or study of religion. It is because he does not subscribe to anything other than himself and enriching himself. In fact, I would, not even call him an atheist as that would actually infer some thought process and a conscience decision. He is just dead inside.

    First in a "long time"...….just how many FIRSTS exist? Tis the problem with those who attempt to judge others in an "unrighteous" manner......Only God knows the content of someone's heart, and guess what? The Kingdom of God is not a physical Kingdom for everyone to see...its a spiritual kingdom resting within the heart of any disciple of Christianity. Thus, impossible for another to judge in relation to what one believes and does not believe (or the FAITH that rests in someone's heart). Enlighten us.....how do you know that Mr. Trump is an atheist? You don't.

    Only God and the individual know the content of the heart...where the Kingdom of God rests.

    "The Kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say 'See here' or 'See there', For indeed the Kingdom of God is within you." -- Luke 17:20-21


    ".....For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God....except the Spirit of God...……………….." -- Cor. 2:9-13

    UNLESS you are claiming to be representing the Spirit of God.....just how do you know that Mr. Trump is an Atheist?

    Just like the Schiffshow production.....you are making judgments (unrighteous) in nature because you offer no evidence to support your accusation other than some personal hatred and animus toward Mr. Trump.

    Judgement is allowed....only when truth is confirmed beyond the reason of anyone to doubt otherwise. If you have no evidence......you are guilty of ignoring the 2x4 in your own eye while accusing someone of having splinter in their eye.

    You are supposed to judge by the fruits (only a leftist could find fault in the peace and prosperity brought to this nation by Donald John Trump.....no one can deny they are better off now than they were when Mr. Trump came into office....unless you a member of the swamp and have had a sealed indictment opened against you)

    Judge by the fruits (Matt. 7:15-20)…….in simple terms.....a bad tree produces bad fruit, a good tree bears good fruit

    We are to judge with righteous judgement (in truth)...not, judge because of personal animus (John 7:24) Never judge in hypocrisy (Matthew 7:1-5)
