    So you’re against voting for a cheating predator. Yet you voted for Trump in 2016 knowing he raped his ex-wife, cheated on his ex-wife and current wife, walked into beauty pageant dressing rooms, multiple sexual assault cases against him, and claim “grab them by their pussy”.

    If I didn’t know better, I would conclude that Rick has hacked your account. Yet, I do know better. You care more about your political ideals than you ever had for your Christian ones...

    According to this, Jones was middle of first term, the only one before the 1996 election. Millwee went public in 2016.

    These are the sexual-assault allegations against Bill Clinton

    Very subtle and a bit sneaky. You didn't just say somebody that voted for Bill Clinton because that likely wouldn't have worked for your purposes (as he likely never voted for Bill, just as I didn't). So, instead, voting for either Clinton, even considering that Hillary ran against the sexual predator that you supported initially, is disqualifying.

    It's one thing to vote for a guy you don't like because the guy he is running against is even worse. But you are, or at least have been, an enthusiastic DeSantis supporter.

    Because of Hillary, Duh. What she ever did that elevates TD above her in the mind of Christians is beyond me.

    Lol. I honestly thought that stiff was more political games. I was foolish and turned a naive eye. I didnt make the same mistake twice. But sure attack my faith and hold it against me. I'll sleep at night just fine knowing I opened my eyes and changed course

    She attacked her husbands victims for starters, but regardless my vote for Trump in 2016 was hypocrisy on my part and I regret it. This need from the left to pain DeSantis as another Trump is political nonsense. They arent even in the same ballpark. They do all of this while acting like they didn't vote for a predator and then his wife who attacked his victims.

    We all need to do better at picking our leaders.

    Yep. Supporter in message board posts 2 years before an election.

    I'm not going to just turn blue because a democratic Sheriff and some tweets say I should.

    Tilly, Clinton aside, how can you rationalize or excuse DeSantis' action with the immigrants? I know your faith is a strong part of your life. How is it in any way Christian?

    Yeah I’m gonna have to disagree with you there. His antics are Trumpian to a T. He’s doing this to troll democrats. For the express purpose of upsetting his potential constituents. Presidential hopefuls didn’t do this sort of shit before Trump. The left/media is painting him like Trump because he’s acting JUST LIKE TRUMP. Not sure how you can say that’s “nonsense”.

    Not sneaky at all. It was my clear intent Hillary went after the victims of her husbands predatory actions. Stayed married to him (see enabled)... All while claiming to be a champion for woman.

    Sorry. Im not teaching my daughters to stay with a man that cant keep it in his pants.

    She was culpable.

    I should not have voted for Trump, but the dame can be said of people that voted for either Clinton.

    To be clear. I never directly accused anyone of voting for Bill. I said anyone who did.

    Nope. Jones was pre re-election.

    So you think that people should be more willing to divorce their partners, especially when they have children? Or only Hillary, because it would have been politically advantageous for her to do that.

    The best case scenario is not being married to somebody like that. But I know plenty of Christians that think the divorce rate is too high and that women should try to work their way through those issues. At the very minimum, they aren't actively encouraging more divorce.

    And how is all of this not just an attempt to divert challenging information about your current preferences without actually either defending DeSantis' actions as proper or stating that they are not proper and are not consistent with a Christian understanding of humanity?

    Well the date in that article is before the election and contains 4 names. 2 of which were known for a while at that point.

    Don’t remember when Clinton’s issues became well known but they were out there enough and the “ewwww” factor of the man was sufficient that I could not vote for him either time - although he was not a terrible president.

    Billionaire John Mellon Scaife absolutely HATED the Clintons and info from his well financed smear campaign and army of PIs of Clinton may have filtered through to me.

    The article is from 2016. You're talking about voting for Hillary?

    I'm not saying political ploys and pandering arent happening. Bit good lord, that happens at every level of politics.

    ....But for him to be "trumpian" requires much more than that. When he starts misusing woman and cheating on his wife, and the next wife etc, and holding up Bibles he had never read and claims he never needs forgiveness and calls his own daughter a piece of ass, or thinks bleach is medicine, or has his house raided by the FBI or blah blah blah... He is nothing like Trump.

    I would be more okay with this if he used his campaign funds for this political stunt instead of tax dollars.

    Sorry got my wires crossed. Yes, that article underscores Hillary's treatment of the victims before her election night.

    I mentioned above the 2 known cases before HIS election night

    Thus my mention of "A" Clinton... not just Bill.
