Just un-effin’-believable. He’s definitely a damned wrecking ball. Every time he wins me back just a little, he pulls some shit like this that simply makes me want to puke and pushes me miles away from him. I shudder to think of what comes after him, but I’m ready to see him go, not over his execution of the Iran war but over shit like this insane utterance.
I understand the President wanting to keep our frenemies’ [UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan] cooperation in the ongoing Iran war, but I don’t ever again want to read a U.S. president saying “Praise Be to Allah” in a message — ESPECIALLY DURING EASTER WEEKEND — as Trump just did in warning Iran of a Tuesday deadline that will see their infrastructure destroyed if they don’t stop trying to block the Strait of Hormuz.
For the life of me, I can’t figure out what he could be thinking to utter such a phrase, especially given the fact that it was Muslims and an Islamic plot with some ties to the Saudi Arabian royal family, as well as Iran too, that brought down the Twin Towers on September 11th 2001.
More ass-kissin’ appeasement of the Muslims of the region. He could gain and keep their cooperation through other methods besides betraying Christianity and his own Christian belief — that is, if he’s even really a Christian. You’d never hear any Christian willing to utter such a heresy and sacrilege, and I don’t think one would ever hear a strong U.S. president presiding over a Christian nation utter it … just sayin’…
No matter how much I might like SOME of what President Trump is doing during his second term, this statement right here, not the part on how he’s going to continue the execution of the war, MAKES ME WANT TO KICK HIM RIGHT STRAIGHT IN THE BALLS. “Praise be to Allah”??!!!???!!!!!? — What the Phluck, Trump??? — And On EASTER DAY NO LESS — walking away muttering under my breath and shaking my head…

Everyone is a critic, but not one of you has any suggestions for what to do or how to do it better… All this country knows how to do is bitch.
And that’s our right according to the misinterpretation of the First Amendment, which clearly states… “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Please point to the part that gives us permission to bitch about every little thing that strikes our fancy.
You can’t because it’s not there!
Charles,
I really don’t know what in the hell you are talkin’ about. Your comment has next to nothing to do with the topic of this short little rant of mine, unless you somehow now believe I should not have voiced an opinion on it at all.
If Your comment is directed at me, again, you are so far off base it isn’t even funny, in as much as I have always provided solutions for any problem I have ever expounded upon on The Federal Observer, whether anyone agreed with my conclusions or not.
And as far as the First Amendment is concerned, if you would familiarize yourself with the historical context of the Bill of Rights, the founders acknowledged that it did not address each and every single Inalienable God-Given right that one might glean from watching nature and the order of Natural Law in action. It was simply a list of negative laws inhibiting and restraining the government, by telling it explicitly what it could not do against us. My right to free speech is unlimited, in as much as I do no harm, no slander or libel or yelling “fire” in a crowded space.
I don’t need permission from you, a piece of paper, or anyone else to “bitch about every little thing that strikes [my] fancy”, and I will bitch about any damned thing I wish as often as I wish, no matter how often you wish to object and make the noise of a slave and a man who would have everyone else in America act as slaves, answering to slave masters … “permission” indeed.
I don’t ask for permission, and I don’t need permission to state just what in the fuck I mean any goddamned time I wish.
Let me know when you’ve managed to unravel your chains from around your tongue, Charles.
