People blindly following a church leader. This is the exact same behavior, accepting this. It’s the same people in both cases too

I see. Kinda agree. But AFAIK he isn't representing himself as an agent of God. I think those church leaders who take advantage of their congregation are a step above in terms of evil.

I.E, I don't blame Trump for having blind followers.
I do blame Kenneth Coleman for using the name of God to dupe people.

Fundamentalist type faith leaders prey on people’s fears to get them to follow. Trump is exactly the same way. He exploits the worst in people.

This is a troll right? Why are you quoting data from March of this year when we had a few thousand confirmed deaths from covid? The pandemic took off in the northeast in April.

Ignoring the fact that multiple towns have had multiple things burned down by people in black you apparently missed my point.

You don't think calling the only other major political party in the country a domestic enemy of the state isn't trying to exploit and prey on people's fear?

You think there was a plane full of people in black clothes flying on an airplane to some small trump town? What?

your candidate has literally said he is going to run for a 3rd term. That doesn’t concern you?

I don’t know why you trump guys love “both sides” arguments so much. I didn’t say anything about the left. I specifically compared how trump and religious leaders prey on people’s weakness.

I never said anything about planes or small trump towns so what are you talking about?

I’ve never supported Trump or thought he should be President.

Not a Trump guy.

You’re right, you didn’t.

I was just curious if you thought preying on peoples weaknesses is wrong just for Trump or is it also just as wrong for Nancy Pelosi?

Originally from Jacksonville. I have family in Sarasota that would take me to games growing up. I lived in Bradenton from 2016-2018 for work and was a partial STM. Would love to get back down there eventually after retirement - beautiful area and miss the sunsets on Anna Maria.
FYI - Attending En-route Basics at the moment and would like to be at Jax Center.
