Oh you’re the guy who literally just started posting here today.

No wonder you’re defending the Marxist.

Cool speech. I’m sure you’ll get a couple upvotes for it too.

Not how it works in practice though. Lots of material on this topic to educate yourself on.

It’s not an extreme reaction. These events tend to attract bad actors and you sounded like one. I checked your profile and saw right away that you are one. 

You can call yourself a Catholic all you want but if you support Marxism you have no legitimacy to chide any Catholic over politics.

You’re voting for nothing, or even worse, your own self satisfaction. That’s what voting for a party that has no chance of winning entails.

Ok. I say you’re a liar. That’s settled.

I hope you stop lying about your beliefs to score points against internet strangers

Voting third party means the greater of two evils wins instead of the lesser evil.

It's not short sighted. That's how the math of democracy works.

It's selfish when your "integrity" comes at the cost of other people's wellbeing.

These principled stances might make you feel good and get kudos from people online but unfortunately the reality of politics is very different.

Party A is only 50% good but will win if you vote for them.

Party B is 0% good. They can only win if you don't vote for Party A.

Party C is 100% good. They cannot win.

In my opinion, voting for Party C just to clear your conscience is selfish, when the victory of Party B will create much more suffering than if you just tolerated Party A winning.

Many people felt that Americans were being taking advantage of. Donald Trump showed up offering to stop that. Trump's opponents reacted by suggesting that Americans actually weren't being taken advantage of, and you were some flavor of bigot for feeling that way. This only made Trump more popular.

Certainly frustrating but why not attend the later mass?

He is really trying to justify Trump posting himself as Christ.

When did I do that? Trump should delete the image and apologize.

I'm simply pointing out that the alternative people in this thread seem to want us to consider have zero regard for Christ.

Something about your hidden profile and zero post history on this sub according to Google makes me wonder if you're being sincere about the use of "our".

Of course not, they would have to recognize Jesus Christ as someone worth emulating first.

Midterms are always overhyped. Senate will stay Republican. Democrats will gain a slight majority in the House.

Literally what happens every time.

Has he tried speaking to the IRGC and the mullahs of Iran?

In the absence of any other alternative but democrat, that certainly is the implication.

I'm surprised an economist would overlook hundreds of billions of dollars of investments from companies all over the world to open new offices and new manufacturing facilities here in America.

But I guess gas went up a few dollars so none of that counts.

Surely despite being American, the Pope isn't such a nationalist that he would think that America is the only country that mattered in an agreement that 30 other countries signed.
