AS AMERICA – AND THE WORLD – AWAIT A VERDICT IN THE TRIAL OF FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP, THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT MUST BE SAID.
FIRST, ONLY EXTREME PARTISANS BELIEVE THIS TRIAL IS ANYTHING BUT A LIBERAL PLOY TO DEFEAT TRUMP IN THE NOVEMBER ELECTION. IT HAS BIDEN CAMPAIGN AND LEFT WING FINGERPRINTS ALL OVER IT FOR REASONS MANY, INCLUDING ME, HAVE DISCUSSED.
SECOND, TRUMP HAS BROUGHT MUCH OF THIS ON HIMSELF AND NOT JUST HIS BUSINESS DEALINGS. THE ALLEGATIONS INCLUDE SEXUAL ASSAULT OF E. JEAN CAROLL FOR WHICH HE HAS BEEN CONVICTED AND MADE TO PAY A FINE, HAVING AN AFFAIR WHILE HIS WIFE WAS PREGNANT, SEX WITH A PORN STAR (WHICH HE HAS DENIED), AND HORRIBLE THINGS SAID ABOUT WOMEN. THE LIST GOES ON.
THIS IS WHY SCRIPTURE IS CLEAR ABOUT THE NECESSITY OF GOOD CHARACTER. GOOD CHARACTER ACTS LIKE A SHIELD THAT PROTECTS ONE FROM THE ARROWS THAT MIGHT COME HIS OR HER WAY. IN FACT, GOOD CHARACTER MOSTLY KEEPS THOSE ARROWS FROM BEING SHOT AT YOU AT ALL.
TWO PROVERBS COME TO MIND: “WHOEVER WALKS IN INTEGRITY WALKS SECURELY, BUT WHOEVER TAKES CROOKED PATHS WILL BE FOUND OUT.” AND “THE INTEGRITY OF THE UPRIGHT GUIDES THEM, BUT THE UNFAITHFUL ARE DESTROYED BY THEIR DUPLICITY.” I’M CAL THOMAS.
Hello Cal,
“SECOND, TRUMP HAS BROUGHT MUCH OF THIS ON HIMSELF AND NOT JUST HIS BUSINESS DEALINGS. THE ALLEGATIONS…”
Interesting, how can Trump bring it upon himself when the allegations are from others???
His behavior
