That's why I think it was trolling. HE doesn't talk like that and I've seen letters he has written to fans....he knows proper grammar. Ive started looking for hidden messages in the text...maybe he's been kidnapped or had a stroke.RunningMn9 wrote:Speaking of which, that sounded like it was written by a third grader.stessier wrote:Bill Belichick''s letter to Trump was the best example I've seen.

Re: The Art of the Donald Trumpocalypse
B-I-L denied being the prankster behind our Trump sign attack. Wife says that while her brother is an asshole, he's not a liar, and she believes him. I'm not so sure; she invoked the police in a FB post so maybe that scared him straight. If it wasn't him, we have no idea who it might have been. The culprit walked across our lawn and put the signs right next to the house, so that's rather a bold trespass, which hints at familiarity.
If it was random, it teeters on the brink of a (very) minor hate crime.

Jesus said, "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body."[Matt 10:28] God can totally destroy us.
Jesus also said, "For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”[John 6:40] Eternal life is conditional.
His disciple John wrote, "Whoever has the Son has eternal life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have eternal life. [1 John 5:12] Eternal life is optional.

That is...awesome. Not because it's happening, but because it removes all speculation about what kind of people support Drumpf.

Re: The Art of the Donald Trumpocalypse
LA Times
Bracing for an adversarial relationship with President-elect Donald Trump, the California Legislature has selected former U.S. Atty. Gen. Eric H. Holder Jr. to serve as outside counsel to advise the state’s legal strategy against the incoming administration.
The unusual arrangement will give Holder, leading a team of attorneys from the firm Covington & Burling, a broad portfolio covering potential conflicts between California and the federal government.
It's almost as if people are the problem.

Re: The Art of the Donald Trumpocalypse
I remember arguing with my stepdad during the primaries that Donald Trump would be a disastrous President.
Keep in mind that at this time:
1. I was just beginning to drift away from the Republican party, but not completely. Had the GOP put up someone other than Trump, there was a decent chance I'd have voted for them.
2. I didn't despise Trump, even though I knew he was a huckster. I loved The Apprentice and Celebrity Apprentice, and viewed him more as an entertainer than a businessman (hence my concerns about him holding office)
However, that's where I cease taking any credit for my predictions. Never in my wildest dreams did I predict this level of disaster. It was like me predicting a slight drizzle and getting hit in the face with a Cat 5 hurricane.
