“Henceforth” is not practical. I wouldn’t take the bet anyway because we all know Trump is going to speak his mind. But I certainly wouldn’t take it if I have to wait for literally eternity.I tell you what. I’m willing to put my money where my mouth is. I got a hundred US Dollars that says, Trump will publicly comment negatively on his successor, or the new govt, within a month of leaving office, and do so, regularly henceforth. At a bare minimum 2 times a month. The standard I’m giving is WELL beyond that of any other former President....and I have the utmost confidence, I’d win that bet. My suggestion to you, don’t take that bet. Ignore it, or give me some sort of clever response, gracefully stepping away from a challenge you’re sure to lose. Game?
I don’t. Money corrupts. I hope he exposes the corruption and declassifies everything to show Americans what they’re doing with our lives.I hope Trump dumps billions into a foundation for the advancement of conservative political thinking.
He better hurry.I don’t. Money corrupts. I hope he exposes the corruption and declassifies everything to show Americans what they’re doing with our lives.
He’s got 4 years left to do it.He better hurry.

Funny, I know Christians who are very righteous, and then cast their vote for somebody decided not so. I guess one votes according to the totality of ones beliefs, and not simply cherry pick.I know of one that said it was not necessary to read a candidate's position on the natural rights documented in the Second Amendment because it was already well known....and then cast his vote for it.
That's one of the things America was founded to get away from.Sadly, for most people, their "politics" are their "religion."
The world would be a much nicer place if those priorities were reversed.

Seems to be in vogue these days.But if your intentions were to malign Christians for supporting Trump carry on...
False.That's one of the things America was founded to get away from.
This is only even sort of true if you very, very narrowly define "man."False.
America was founded to protect the natural rights of man.
To conduct one's self according to your own desires, with respect to the wellbeing, not the will of others.
Well said sir.False.

America is a beautiful dream and a rejection of the top down establishment orthodoxy of Europe.
Your morality is not handed down from a pulpit but raised up by it.
So too,
Your vote descends not from the elected but raises your cause in their voice.
The very fact people openly claim a political party without absolute disgust would confuse more than a few of our founders.
Men often forget their principles in their haste to catch a passing wagon.
The idea that an individual Americans vote should be based on anything other than their own personally held moral convictions is to spit in the ocean of blood spilled to secure that right.
Let Neither Sword nor Pen Sway your Hearts from the Just Cause of Liberty.
Well, c'mon though. Wouldn't you be cherry-picking too? All are fallen from the glory of God, right? If your religion makes you believe that you shouldn't vote for bags of ****, shouldn't you vote for neither?Funny, I know Christians who are very righteous, and then cast their vote for somebody decided not so. I guess one votes according to the totality of ones beliefs, and not simply cherry pick.

Well, yes and no. The New World was so that people could escape religious persecution and set up their own right there. But, it's true enough that one of the founding principles was to get the state out of religion, unless it's "my" religion. Then it's okay. At least that's kinda how it went for the first hundred + change years.False.
