We had all heard the comment a few weeks ago for it was all over the news.....A Marine general had told his troops in Norway to prepare for a "big ass" war. Two days ago a foreign correspondent had asked President Trump about the comment from one of his top generals and the president apparently didn't know anything about it. Now I'm sure that there is more than one take on this but my take is....how could that be....none of his many advisers informed him about it? If you didn't hear about this Marine general's comment.....no problem.....but you're not the President of the United States.
President Trump's unwise, at best, comment at the DACA meeting on how he would sign any bill put before him is another example of the concern from those of us who are neither trying to form a Trump funeral cortege.... nor on the Trump gravy train. So this morning President Trump's impromptu comments have him in trouble yet again.....and talking without thinking is the culprit once again. The president is also quoted today in that he said...."I probably have a very good relationship with Kim Jong-un." What kind of statement is that? These things are not the straightforwardness of Harry Truman folks....it's the artlessness of Donald Trump.
The media jumped on the immigration comments as racism.....conservative talk radio is doing what they do best nowadays.....they defend President Trump no matter what he says....no matter how ridiculous it is. I'm reminded of the old Stealers Wheel lyrics...."Clowns to the left of me...jokers to the right." Those of us in the middle are concerned about the lack of wisdom of the president and the lack of sound conservative thinking from those around him....but every word of criticism that we give is interpreted as 'neverTrumpism.' President Trump didn't draw North Korea to the table....the South Korean President unwisely gave them another opportunity to obfuscate, deceive and delay. The President is once again tweeting strong conservative immigration demands on DACA.....this after his mental miscue in the DACA meeting. Folks....did the President just speak hastily in that meeting or did he show his hand to the Democrats and also to us? Either way he was hammered by Ann Coulter and Mark Levin.....and then quickly changed his story....yet the rest of conservatism is unable to pick up on this.
The real importance on all of this is that North Korea and Iran and God knows what else will be dealt with by a man who is struggling to codify his thoughts and contain his words. Friends, pray for this man....not in any of this MAGA nonsense....but that he might someday realize that Communism is alive and well not only in China but in the American media.....and that Norman Vincent Peale may not have been a good teacher after all......and that he....Donald Trump....might see his need to humble himself before this God who he up till now has ignored.....and pray for America whose judgments are evident in the chaos and pandemonium in every area of society.......pray for the pulpits to get off their high horse and shed some tears.....and pray for yourselves....as I pray for myself.....that God might have mercy on us who played in the world.....played in church.....and now are forced to watch in the news the results of our failures to take God's warnings seriously.
