Can we impeach Donald yet?
I mean, it's been nearly 20 months now, and he's tweeted so much rubbish and done so many mean spirited things and been such an agitator in trade, military alliances, and diplomacy.
So can we impeach him please; and I say "we" meaning Christians, and specifically Christians in the USA congress - both the house and the senate.
And should he be in "jail" after impeachment?
Would you favour a "presidential pardon" for him if he was convicted by the senate, or by the courts?
Nixon got a pardon from Gerald Ford, was that a mistake?
Trump is fighting tooth and nail for his presidency and I doubt that we're going to see another occupant in the Oval Office any time soon. Yes, the news about the man is depressing, but I thought the same thing about Obama and George W. Bush during their times in office. Trump won the Electoral College ( however it was done, he won it, he was sworn in as president and today, whether the planet loves it or loathes it, Donald J. Trump is the
President of the United States of America). Right now, this is an objective fact. I don't like a lot of the choices he's made while he was in office ( withdrawing the US from the Paris Climate Accord, downsizing the EPA and chronic West Wing job turnover are three professional choices he made that I disagree with), but his personal morality ( or lack thereof) in regards to the women he was allegedly seeing while married is ( like Bill Clinton's) none of my business. When one's worldview interferes with his or her job performance, there's going to be a problem.
Okay, that's the negative. He's a Reality Show media mogul who seems to have difficulty separating himself from the roles he's been given to play. On a positive note, we know this guy. We knew exactly what he stood for when he was sworn in and he has not deviated from his stated course. He began by stating that the media was full of crap and that is exactly how he's been treating the press ever since. He thinks we've ( as a nation) been screwed by the rest of the world and it's payback time. He cares more about presenting America's strength to the world and he tweets " carelessly" as a demonstration of his own power.
Those of us who are Americans get to do what we got to do when Obama, Bush II, Clinton, Bush I, Reagan, Carter and all those other guys did when we thought they were out to screw the country over. We can express our discontent at the voting booth. We still have freedom of speech and we regularly exercise our right to protest. Red's going too far? Vote Blue! Blue's getting too Commie for good taste? Vote Red! Part of the Serenity Prayer
http://thevoiceforlove.com/serenity-prayer.html is a petition for God that we might have the wisdom to see the difference between the things we can change and the things we cannot change. Yes, the state of the country might be wonderful for the rich and agonizing for the poor, but it has been thus for decades now. It's a time ( as it will always be, until the Second Coming) for faith, prayer and living our lives as God gives us the grace to do.
