Holy ****! Moar comprehension fail. You clearly haven't been following the thread and the quotes posted previously.

One can only have a comprehension failure if there is something written to comprehend.

you only post stuff like this. Over and over and over

Holy ****! Moar comprehension fail. You clearly haven't been following the thread and the quotes posted previously.

I also don't know what you're talking about. You have articulated your position poorly.
Why can't you just own him and destroy him by articulating the error of his opinion as he is requesting you to do?

I wouldn't know, since the all that you posted since those posts was a meme? So, with the lack of any written opinion on the posts you quoted, how is anyone able to reasonably infer the context of those posts with anything you said previously, when all we have to go on, is a meme, devoid of any words?

Trump will win with a landslide he is on top of his game.

Spinning the crisis like Bush spinned the fake evidence.

Can you even read? Or do you just post scht without thinking??

Here is what he posted:

"In setting out the Trump administration’s Middle East policy, one of the first things Mike Pompeo made clear to his audience in Cairo is that he had come to the region as “as an evangelical Christian”.

In his speech at the American University in Cairo, Pompeo said that in his state department office: “I keep a Bible open on my desk to remind me of God and his word, and the truth.”

The secretary of state’s primary message in Cairo was that the US was ready once more to embrace conservative Middle Eastern regimes, no matter how repressive, if they made common cause against Iran.

His second message was religious. In his visit to Egypt, he came across as much as a preacher as a diplomat. He talked about “America’s innate goodness” and marveled at a newly built cathedral as “a stunning testament to the Lord’s hand”.

The desire to erase Barack Obama’s legacy, Donald Trump’s instinctive embrace of autocrats, and the private interests of the Trump Organisation have all been analysed as driving forces behind the administration’s foreign policy.

The gravitational pull of white evangelicals has been less visible. But it could have far-reaching policy consequences. Vice President Mike Pence and Pompeo both cite evangelical theology as a powerful motivating force."

Do you see any mention of Paula White? No? So get your head out of Tyson's ass, stop assuming things, as it is the mother of all **** up's, which you clearly just performed to perfection.

Yes ok apologies. My bad.

But my opinion and assessment doesn't change at all.

Charlatans. ALL of them in the Trump administration. Pompeo, Pence, everyone. The criticism isn't against Christianity, it is against rank hypocrisy and grifting of these particular people. It is a judgement based on their own actions and words, not their faith.

But go ahead and play the persecution card. It's about as relevant as the race card.

This is the epitome of bad faith debating. Here's what cerebus wrote.

Yeah me too. Trump should be f****** court marshalled for his handling of Corona in the US.

And here's the post I'm refering too.

Once again, how do you reconcile this with what the experts said.

For those who have issues watching videos.

MARK LEVIN: Welcome back. Dr. Fauci, let me ask you a question. You've been doing this a long time. Have you ever seen this big of a coordinated response by an administration to such a threat? A health threat?

DR. ANTHONY FAUCI: Well, we've never had a threat like this and the coordinated response has been, there are a number of adjectives to describe it. Impressive, I think is one of them.

I mean, we're talking about all-hands on-deck is that I, as one of many people on a team, I'm not the only person, since the beginning that we even recognized what this was. I have been devoting almost full time on this -- almost full time.

I'm down at the White House virtually every day with the Taskforce. I'm connected by phone throughout the day and into the night and when I say night, I'm talking twelve, one, two in the morning. I'm not the only one. There's a whole group of us that are doing that. It's every single day.

So I can't imagine that that under any circumstances that anybody could be doing more. I mean, obviously, we're fighting a formidable enemy -- this virus. This virus is a serious issue here.

Take a look at what it's done to China, to Europe, to South Korea. It is serious and our response is aimed, and I know you've heard that many, many times, and this is true. I mean, I deal with viruses my entire career.

When you have an outbreak virus, if you leave it to its own devices, it will peak up and then come back down. What we learned from China, that letting it peak up is really bad, because it can do some serious damage. So we are focused now, like a laser on doing whatever we can, and there are two or three things that deserve to be mentioned -- to make this peak actually be a mound, which means you're going to have suffering, you're going to have illness, you're going to have death. But it's not going to be the maximum that the virus can do.

A couple of ways to do that. The first was, as we say, all the time, the very timely decision on the part of the President to shut off travel from China, because we saw that there was this possibility of people coming in and seeding in the country. We did it early.

And as it turned out, there were relatively few cases in the big picture of things that came in from China. Unfortunately, for our colleagues, and many of whom are my friends and people I've trained actually in Medicine, in European countries, they didn't do that. And they got hit really hard and are being hit really hard. The first thing.

Second thing, when the infection burden shifted from China to Europe, we did the same thing with Europe. We shut off travel from Europe, which again was another safeguard to prevent influx from without in.

The other way you do it is by containment and mitigation. And now everybody knows what the word mitigation means because it's the things that we're doing. No crowds, work from home. Don't go to places that you can be susceptible. Ten people in a room, not 50 and a hundred people. Stay away from theatres.

Take the elderly people who are susceptible and have them do self- isolation. Stay out of bars, stay out of restaurants.

If you're in an area where there's a lot of coronavirus activity, close the bars, close the restaurants. That's heavy duty mitigation.

So I think with all of those things going on at the same time, I believe we will -- we're already doing it, but you just can't notice it yet because you have the dynamics of the virus going up. We're trying to put it down. You're not really sure quantitatively what you're doing, but you can be actually certain that we're having an impact on it.

But it's ok to look down on us from you ignorant position.

But Fox News and he's speaking under duress and what-not. You guys are just trolling now. And badly at that hence the following:

Again. Stick. Wrong end.

I.. don't...care... if you don't like Christianity or if you rage against it. I don't feel persecuted at all, I just laugh it off.
Just don't think that (myself anyway) Christians care that you think it is somehow bad or whatever you think.

As for Pompeo and co., I really can't say if he is a in-words-only Christian or he actually believes the Bible. Look at GW Bush. He claimed to be a Christian but was a complete hypocrite.

Tell you what as someone who would rather have Trump win instead of Biden, I am going to be quite surprised if Trump does actually win. Gonna be a hoot though, Democrats/supporters and TDSers are gonna lose their minds. Gonna be entertaining times.

View attachment 813415

The guy who literally facepalmed behind Trump as Trump spoke, is not playing a serious game of gymnastics to keep his job, in the faith that with his presence at least there will be some competent response to the virus? We all know very well how much Trump loves to keep people on who bad mouth him.

Remember this is the same virus that Trump downplayed and ignored from the outset? The same one he said the numbers would be down to 0 by April?

How do you think the culture of "Trust only what Donald Says" has had an affect of the core members of his base, like that lady I referenced, Karen? Were her opinions on the virus and its "hoax" fomented on much of Trump's rhetoric in the early days? Would her opinion have been different, had Trump been more serious on the subject from the get go?

To be fair, technically you are not laughing it off.

Your posts indicate that you have taken exception to it and are addressing the subject with well reasoned opinions.

Exactly. Fauci will never under any circumstances say that Trump has done anything wrong. The minute he does that, he will be out. You need to look at the facts on the ground and do some reading between the lines on what he says. Gnarls seems to think that as soon as he says something positive about Trump it immediately annuls any criticisms.

Please believe mr I didn't read the previous posts or mr. I didn't watch they video but commented anyway. They're in no way entitled snowflakes. They're esteemed newly minted epidemiologists.

There are 0 cases anymore. It's gone away. All this story about deaths and ventilators is fake news. Except the malaria medicine thing. Would let you ask Fauci about that, bit you've asked him 15 times already

If you don't care then why even say anything? Oh right... deflection from the fact that the Trump administration are a bunch of hypocritical lunatics.
