I pray that Melania finds the strength to do the right thing. The thing that she, probably more than anyone, not-so-secretly dreams of doing.

This is her best chance.

I'm not one who wishes anyone ill (even people like Trump) but surely this thread was put here for laughs

Lweji · 02/10/2020 19:05

2 wrongs don’t make a right

What does that even mean in relation to praying or not for Trump?

I don't think anyone most people will pray he'll die, but not praying for him is not a wrong.

CorianderLord · 02/10/2020 19:06

I hope he gets exactly what he gave

Don't kid yourself Of course not.

Lweji · 02/10/2020 19:08

What, for Pence to be struck down as well?

Now, there's a thought.

Pelosi would assume the Presidency. Grin

YANBU - Not if you have any compassion anyway

Roussette · 02/10/2020 19:10

Butchy I think Melania is just as bad as him.

Seriously I do. I had sympathy at the inaugaration because I felt she was propelled into something she doesn't want but she's been the most useless FLOTUS ever and supports him 100%.

'I don't care, do you'

(The slogan on the back of her coat as she was voing to border holding centres with children in)

romeolovedjulliet · 02/10/2020 19:12

can't think of anything nice to say about him so i'll keep quiet.

Lweji · 02/10/2020 19:12

@annabel85

YANBU - Not if you have any compassion anyway
Quite frankly, I direct my compassion at the American people (who didn't elect him) and are suffering under his Presidency. And many others affected by his car crash presidency. So... if he did die, would that be God answering my (let's call them) prayers?

[quote vlnr77yac]@intheenddoesitreallymatter

So agreed!!

PLUS ... 'Suffer little children" for the 3000 babies and toddlers sleeping on concrete floors today under foil blankets and some with Covid caught under govt care and getting minimal care.... AFTER being seized from their parents they may never see again. All to set an example.

OH ... AND "Vengeance is mine" said the Lord ... which appears he might be extracting right about now !!!

To quote comedian Dave Chappelle - did he not think he would incur the wrath of God from all of this cruelty ??!![/quote]
Oh yes!

'An eye for an eye!' Hopefully karma will pay her dues.

'For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge his people.”'

If there is a God and there is a heaven - there is no place there for a man like Donald Trump.

If he is all-seeing he knows what is due.

I wouldn't begrudge him a bottle of Domestos.

jessstan1 · 02/10/2020 19:27

I am happy to pray that they recover - if they actually have the virus - alongside my payer that Trump is no longer president after the election (or even before if possible). I don't wish ill on anyone but would be happy for him to go and live on a private island and take Boris with him.

tornadoalley · 02/10/2020 19:27

I'm just praying Karma gives them both a huge kick up the arse.

StormTreader · 02/10/2020 19:27

He doesn't really have it, he's just thrown a huge strop after being told to shut up in the debate and this is the best reason his PR team can think of to explain why hes not doing any more.

buggeroffvirus · 02/10/2020 19:30

It depends on who you want us to pray to.

OhCaptain · 02/10/2020 19:32

I pray that he gets exactly what he deserves.

If a higher power decides that an excruciating death then, to quote the Orange One himself; it is what it is.

2 wrongs don’t make a right 🤷‍♀️
Are you only able to write one sentence.

You have not given one reason why anyone should offer prayers to this man, nor have you acknowledge one point given in answer to you inane question.

@Roussette I agree, the "I don't care - do you?" jacket was an awful thing to wear when visiting that camp. In fact, I can't think of any occasion when a slogan like that would impress anyone, except a trucculent teenager. The one thing Melania normally does well is to dress beautifully, but she failed big time on that occasion.

TheSandman · 02/10/2020 19:35
