I don't have the answer to the first question here.
But since I believe that Trump also promotes a “satanic agenda”, it’s hard for me to subscribe to that. His is “evil agenda” is merely shifted and is on different subjects that the “satanic agenda” that the left promotes. Is his to a lesser degree? Possibly. But they are all on the same side as far as I am concerned.

At the press briefing held after the attempted assassination attempt on his life Saturday night, reporter Peter Doocy, asked why assassination attempts keep being made on his life. This was the third attempt. Trump brushed it off, stating the reason being that he is a consequential president.

However, I wondered if there is a deeper reason. We need to look at the people who have such a deep hatred for him. The people who hate him are those who support killing the unborn, who advocate that body parts be chopped off of gender confused children, who were okay with the country becoming the largest purveyors of drug sex trafficking in the world through open borders, etc. So, the question is, why are those who support an overwhelming amount of evil, have such a hatred towards Trump? Is it because he is upsetting their satanic agenda?
Darkness can be very dark. :cry:

i’ve been thinking about increasing incidents and news “cheering+funding” heinous felony crime.
The Luigi Mangione case hit (me) hard, reading about people openly supporting cold blooded murder.

It’s increased since then, trump becoming “fair game” and #1 target. It’s not hidden, many are proud and in the public arena.
Of course there are going to be wannabes and copycats. For some it’s a huge irresistable romance. “i’m so important!” :cry:
Other-worldly.

“Cheering+funding felony crime”
https://forum.mennonet.com/viewtopic.ph ... 2&start=40

Iryna Zarutska‘s murderer was recorded as bragging about killing a white girl just after he cowardly ambushed+executed that unarmed, unwarned white girl who did zero to harm him or interfere with him in any way. She didn’t resist him as he killed her.

i don’t believe innocent (or sinful) victims “asked for it” by existing. “you’re dead” because “i’m so important!”

i’m perfectly comfortable with an older, wiser, more docile Trump.

It's not accurate to call it "tearing down" when it's just being expanded / built up.

In any case, it's also not "unprecedented" for a President to add on to the White House or tear something down and put something in its place. JFK and FDR would be examples that did this extensively.
Of course presidents have made changes to the White House. That’s not the issue.

The issue is treating public property like a personal project—something you can reshape however you want, with money from people who may well want to influence you. That’s where the concern comes from, not the fact that changes are being made.

Back to this thread: I think the White House Correspondents’ Dinner handled security quite well. The ballroom project was never primarily about security anyway. The President will always appear in many venues that aren’t the East Wing, and a ballroom wouldn’t change that.

At this point, the East Wing has been demolished, and it has to be replaced with something. The new design should go through a process that allows for public input and serious review. So far, the feedback they received in the formal process has been strongly negative, and they rather ignored that. I think this raises legitimate questions about whose interests are really being served.

1. Are we discussing the topic? Good.
2. Are we going around and around in a fight? Let's stop doing that.
3. Is there some serious wrongdoing or relational injury? Let's address that, probably not in public and certainly not for show.

I am coming from the standpoint of why and who has this visceral hatred towards him. The “why” and “who” is very telling.

You are right that Satan doesn’t cast out Satan. But what is confusing is that Satan loved the concept of disrupting God’s creation of boys and girls, men and women. And when people deny the sex, they were created with, Satan loves that. And he loves that people advocated that body parts be chopped off of gender confused children. He loved that the country became the largest purveyors of drug and sex trafficking in the world through open borders. Yet Trump stopped that. So, was stopping those actions from team Satan or not?

President Ford narrowly survived two assassination attempts. Was he also upsetting Satan's agenda?

Interesting. Maybe Satan hates Republican presidents.

So if we can separate Satan from the people who are trying to kill Trump, maybe that is closer to your original question. I think that there are people who are willing to kill Trump because of a misguided belief that doing so will somehow stop the bad things that he is doing. And they evil that these people may support, (the things you mentioned) is viewed by them as good things. And so it is a fine example of those who call evil good. Where I get off, is the idea that the people on only one side of the political spectrum are on the side of Satan, and so Satan is using those people to try to stop Trump. I would suppose that there are many things that Trump does that Satan loves as well.

An obvious question is why Republicans have garnered so many assassination attempts. It would appear that the left wing does indeed have a violence problem that simply doesn't exist on the right wing.
