I know some of my husband's family had to leave their church because it became very obvious that they were being outcast due to not voting for Trump. This is a Church they had been doing good works for years, including going into the community, visiting homeless shelters, etc. It started when they became uncomfortable with the pastor posting (apparent now) Russian Bot info during the 2016, which they would show was not true. Possibly caused resentment, I don't know. There was a church meeting about them a few months ago, and they finally decided to leave. We invited them to our non-partisan church and they seem happy, but I know that stings since they thought those people were their friends, and that they were worshiping God, not Donald Trump.

I have some acquaintances I had to block on social media because I have to associate with them and want to keep the peace. Their racism (which I had no idea) has come out, which upset me. I'd rather be oblivious.

Also what did your friends post that was racist? Just curious

Anyone who preaches politics from the pulpit, especially when there is no contextual tie to scripture, should be punished via taxes, etc.

I’m a child of God, but politics should not influence a pastor’s duty to preach and proselytize to his congregation/community.

Agree but sometimes people believe posting the Truth about homosexuality and abortion means you’re being “political”

So it’s gonna be Trump vs Biden. I’m wondering who Wall Street and big business will endorse and throw money behind. Factor in Trump’s policy decisions thus far with the present precarious global economy due to the virus impact and I don’t see any way the give the WH to sleepy/creepy Uncle Joe. Yeah they like him better than Bernie, but with the current economy state no way they give this situation to him willingly.

Also if this does turn out to be sharp AND short like most are saying it’s a huge feather in Trump’s hat. “See I got us thru this unscathed” and just more performance to lean on.

Factor in how bitter and petty the Bernie Bros will be about getting shafted twice in their eyes and no way they vote for Biden. They will stay home or write in Bernie.

And the debates will be glorious with Trump continually bringing up Hunter, Joe’s Brother, and Ukraine 😂

If anything this just keeps playing into the GOP’s hands 😂

Sounds to me like they made the right decision to leave the church as far as I’m concerned. Has nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with the church’s priorities.

I’m a Christian. But I haven’t been a congregation member in a long time and it’s totally due to being fed up with preaching politics from the pulpit. They were even politics I agreed with. I just got sick of hearing them there.

If that happens Biden will for sure blow a gasket and the media will say Trump is picking on Joe.

Biden stronger in MI than HRC was. Bodes well to flip that state... only take 55K voters to go Biden instead of Trump v. 2016 election.

Biden will win PA and OH and probably even FL v. Trump.

I'm about 75% certain Biden will be our next President and end the insanity. Might even be a landlide.

Biden is doing better than Hillary did in the states she won and definitely in the ones she lost. Democrat party would have to be suicidal to put her in again. Just run a good VP and let's go Biden.

Well yeah it's either vote for the old guy with dementia or the crazy old communist.

As President Trump said the United States will never be a Socialist Country!

But come November Trump will beat Biden like a drum on the way to 35+ States!

I think this is an election where the establishment would be comfortable with either of them being elected. Trump is certainly an anti-establishment candidate, but it isn't like he is or has ever been anti-Wall Street or anti-big business. He's a self-described "tariff man," which big business would prefer he not be, but he isn't against the fundamental concept of big business like someone like Bernie is.

Trump was something of an unknown commodity in 2016, leading the establishment to prefer Hillary, but seeing as the GOP establishment has gotten comfortable with Trump and he's the undeniable leader of the party now, I think they're totally OK with him. Biden is the epitome of a corporate, establishment Democrat, just like Hillary, so they're OK with him too.

Well, it's official. The 11 year bull stock market ended with Trump at the helm.

How apropos.

Give him long enough, and he'd bankrupt our country, too. Seems the Fates have smiled upon us though, as his escort to the exit is a Corona.

Perhaps if he drank one... just one beer in his life, he wouldn't be such a douche.

It would have ended had Hillary been elected in 2016. Probably sooner and without a worldwide pandemic.

Which one of his policies caused the end of the Bull Market?
