President Macron of France criticized President Trump for saying he is a nationalist. I doubt that he even understands the meaning of the word. He was most likely told how to phrase his comments on that subject. We're all tired of the criticisms and investigations we've endured for the past two years. It's all one-sided, and we know that there was a cover-up of Hillary's wrongdoing by the FBI, the Attorney General and other Trump-haters.
The frame-up of Trump becomes clearer daily as information is uncovered by Foia requests and court orders. All we hear are threats of impeachment which would destroy the economy, jobs, the Stock Market, border security and military advancements. They found careless or corrupt judges to sign the FISA warrants to investigate Trump when Hillary wasn't elected. These warrants were their “insurance policy” to blame Trump and give Hillary cover for her corruption. It does not appear that the documents were even read as they were not seeking the truth.
For Christmas, I would like to see the country get along. We can find common ground no matter what party we belong to if we remain calm, reasonable and respectful of each other. We must realize that we are one nation under God and respect our elected officials. Engaging our President in debate at a news conference is rude, disrespectful to other reporters and unprofessional. Jim Acosta needs to learn better manners like everyone else. We are not the least interested in his grandstanding or his foolish and inappropriate questioning. Other reporters were unable to ask questions because of his crude behavior. I would like to see good interaction and thoughtful questions followed by results to lift us all up.
When Maxine Waters advises followers to “get in their face,” “form a crowd,” “tell them they are not welcome anywhere,” what kind of message does that send? Those words are hateful, ungodly and likely to cause mobs or riots. No one who serves this country in office should be subjected to this kind of assault and potential harm! Far better to pray for those with whom we disagree. The battle between good and evil always continues, but it's the best we stay on the good side and not cause harm to anyone whether in mind, body or soul. We must all choose how to manage all this. We must choose life.
Jesus had to take action against the money-changers in the Temple. If we make a habit of standing against wrong-doing, we will be less likely to commit the same errors. We may not have time to count the cost. We do what has to be done without regard to our personal safety.
When this country was founded, people came from all over the world for a better life. They worked hard and did not expect free stuff. They helped each other and built homes, families and businesses. Most came legally and didn't bring drugs, or criminal intent. They knew they would have to work to achieve the right to became Americans. Their allegiance was to America. They did not come waving the flag of another country nor demand rights they did not deserve.
When Democrats lose elections, they refuse to concede graciously. If they can't respect the results of an election, why would we want them in any office? They remain defiant, accusatory and angry. Trying to call the results racist is just ridiculous. It is not.
“The path of the wicked enter not; walk not on the way of evil men” (Proverbs 4:14).

Editor's Note: With the re-election of Donald J. Trump, the Democrats continue their onslaught of schemes against him and it will only get worse once he is in office. Pray for our president and for our nation.
