Trump raged against Nancy Pelosi, Mitt Romney, and others at the National Prayer Breakfast and rejected the teachings of Christian love. Lawrence argues that that's because Trump fundamentally doesn't understand the concept of love. Aired on 02/6/20.

The unfortunate thing is because they are like this they often know how. to con and manipulate the dimmer among us into thinking they are just great people, like what you have fallen for probably because your partisan hatred allowed you to overlook it at first or maybe you like the way he behaves toward those opposing him and keeping him accountable and the country safe.

So, if he "can't," can we be mad at him? Maybe he is like a small child that has not learned yet to be kind and unselfish. But for him, i suspect he has an organic issue and honestly is unable to have true compassion and common sense. Some have told me he has done some compassionate things and helped people. If so, what was his motive? Has he ever done something kind without expecting a return or without fanfare? If he can't help himself and his "yes" people won't either, what can be done? Of course, we pray he will not be re-elected. It would be an incredible nightmare if he is. I cannot think about what could happen. We have between now and then, too...and if he is not...he will still cause must heart ache in retaliation attacks any way he can. What can be done to restrain him? Maybe only our collective prayers. Can responsible republicans offer another candidate? Maybe they could talk him into not running for health reasons. They could find some way to "reward" him for not running. Maybe a contract for a tv program. Small price to pay to get him out now. Find something that gives more money and attention than the presidency. A news show on Fox? Not likely, but there must be some leverage somewhere. Think of all of the people in history like him. How did it end? Was it possible to control any without death? Back to research...and prayer. No one wants him harmed, just a way to clip his wings...like a chess game, since appealing to his missing conscience won't work. Sorry, i am just trying to brainstorm solutions to a problem. Since no one takes my letters, maybe someone in a playing place will consider these ideas and approach him to save our country.

@@IamNeighborlee Evangelists are cultists already. They have been brainwashed by their pastor, so he can pray himself a new jet airplane. They believe in the wealth doctrine, which tells them those with money are blessed by god, just like the president, and their pastor. Normal people would recognize that all these monotheists pray to the same god, but these people think god would be upset to be prayed to the wrong way. The wahhabi version of Sunni Islam, practiced and exported by KSA, is the worst example of religion used by today's demagogues. All religions are starting to do it though: the hindus of india under Modi, and the buddhists of Myanmar, are cracking down on muslims in their country. Funny how america's ally KSA is exporting an intolerant religion, and america looks the other way. They even help bomb Yemen into the stone age because the houthi refuse to accept a saudi overlord.

I think a multi-million dollar loan signed off by his father is not bad parenting. It's favouritism. And that is because Trump exhibits his parent's same appreciation for wealth and power.

Hitler may have been MORE evil, BUT, Trump does get up at the podium and run his mouth and the blind hoards LOVE it, his "Rallies" that have been going on for all the time he has been in office seem to keep his supporters on his side. Possibly, IF Trump was able to have his evil go unchecked that he WOULD get as bad as Hitler was. He has NO empathy, so, it COULD happen. I just heard him talk about, and I quote him, the "criminal illegals" at the Southern Border, his budget proposal was all for "military, and the Border wall". Large sections of the wall he built are leaning over onto the ground because the cement foundations hadn't cured before the fencing was added, Trump likely put a rush on it, other sections have been cut down by illegals using a battery pack powered "saws all" cheap saws. And, NO Mexico is NOT paying for it, WE are. The drugs are coming through in the border areas where people drive in cars, and in submarines, and drug mules that are coming through the border legally. Maybe SOME illegals are bringing drugs over, BUT, most are coming here fleeing for their lives. His budget proposal will be cutting the EPA (clean air and water) and cutting the funding to help poor people get housing. The Dems will likely shut that all down, hope they do. Trump has likened "Democratic socialism" to "Communism" and many are buying it.
