Wishing For A Clear-minded President

Wish has not yet been granted
Wishing Well

A lot of people in our country are wishing for an easier life. They're wishing for a little relief instead of having to face higher prices on necessities. They're wishing they didn't have to work three or four jobs to make ends meet. They're wishing for a better future—and a foreseeable respite from the grind.

I, on the other hand, am wishing for a clear-minded president who doesn't confuse himself with Jesus.

Last week, despite his unpopular meme posing as Jesus, he accused Senatorial candidate James Talarico of insulting Jesus. I wonder if he meant he insulted him?

Here's how Talarico responded:

"You know what insults Jesus? Kicking the sick off their healthcare while cutting taxes for billionaires.

"You know what insults Jesus? Deporting the stranger and separating babies from their mothers.

"You know what insults Jesus? Bombing innocent school children in Iran, and sending brave men and women off to die in another forever war.

"You know what insults Jesus? Covering up the Epstein files and then refusing to prosecute a single person in them.

"I am not a perfect Christian. I don't claim to be. There's only been one perfect Christian, and he was crucified on a cross 2000 years ago. He told us to love our neighbors as ourselves.

"He told us, on earth as it is in heaven. Can we imagine war in heaven? Can we imagine bigotry in heaven? Can we imagine poverty in heaven? Then why do we tolerate these things on Earth?"

Alaric is so much smarter than DJT. Imagine life with an intelligent president- heavenly

The only thing Talarico and Trump have in common is the letter "T" in their last names. An intelligent, thoughtful, rational, and caring president would surely be a dream from heaven. If only it could be manifested on earth.
Thanks for you comment.

I hope your wish comes true sooner than later. I haven't liked what's going on for quite some time, but OMG, the poor man's brain has spun off its axis, and Talarico apparently is the one politician who really threatens him.

Evangel

It's because the truth he speaks, which is inherent in the bible, is resonating with Christians, be they Catholic or Evangelicals. Those who are still hanging their hats on Trump's victory and dismissing his failures can't admit to themselves they were duped by him. Thanks for commenting.

It's refreshing to hear a politician who actually believes in loving your neighbor, feeding the poor, and choosing peace over war.

Maybe more will follow in his footsteps. Yesterday, a Republican candidate started to talk that same talk, just not in bible language, but nobody called him a socialist. That ugly word is reserved to attack democrats.

I hope he wins his race…

Vance says the Pope needs to be careful when speaking about matters of theology, and Trump pretends to have the "Christ swagger" to tell Talarico how Jesus feels.

Hopefully, this will continue to sour the voters.

The cartoon that Faithville posted today sums it up nicely.

I am wishing and praying for the same thing!

We definitely need more prayers in that direction. Thank you.
