    one does try, but occasionally some of the jibes provoke a response.

    The Christian faith underpins our identity - this is factual based on our consistent approach to social issues.

    Trump is not perfect and makes mistakes - like all of us, everyone has lied at some point in our life.

    As for cheating allegations:
    One cannot comment factually on the scenario of events.
    We do not know the in-depth marital issues faced in the home and what factors were at play.

    Fair enough?

    An adjudicated case relies on “preponderance of the evidence”.

    Which means that the judge or jury must believe it is more likely than not (over 50%).

    So for example, if a jury result showed 51% in belief of him committing the act, he is found guilty of said act.

    Therefore, in my opinion, this process does not provide conclusive truthful results in all cases.

    “Alleged”, you can’t draw a conclusion until anything has been proven in the criminal courts.

    Yes money was proven to be misused - and that is not ok.

    I have the opinion the funds were not used with malicious intent, but rather a case of misunderstanding and accounting mishaps. Which would be for the treasurer CFO to comment.

    I have this view because of the significant amount that Trump donated to charities over the last 20 years completely, cue the pun, trumps that of this 2mill violation. Which was swiftly reimbursed to many charities.

    His net worth is in the billions, 2million made up of a series of smaller transactions over a period of time is an extremely insignificant amount in comparison. Coupled with Trumps lack of oversight of accounts during his busy election period. Hence my opinion is it was a case of poor accounting.

    How does *allegations* about the size of his genitals or his sexual performance have anything to do with Trump being unfit for office?

    And that's totally cool. But ain't no way we're censoring or outright not allowing those who support him to voice their opinion.

    The term “alleged” does not automatically mean something is true. It is simply a statement. Therefore once cant conclude anything yet. How am I wrong on that?

    “Lies about everything” - to say everything is a bold statement.

    What proof do you have?

    Lies about some things - sure, as I said he is human.

    And what do you use as a benchmark to support this metric.
    Are you insinuating that Kamala and co do not lie?

    How much does confirmation bias play a part.
    Because, it is possible that some peoples subconscious will only focus on the negative aspects of Trumps dealings (80/20).

    And how much is attributed to just pure human error - being questioned and prodded by millions of people - under immense pressure - studying every word you say - to respond to something and make a mistake?

    Tax cuts

    Trump’s tax cut was the greatest in value in American history.

    1.5 trillion - compared to:

    - Obamas initial 300billion in 2009 term ERA act, followed by 400 billion in 2012 term ATR act.
    - Reagan’s 81 & 86 TRA acts 750 & 500 billion respectively.
    - Bush’s 2001 EGTRR of 1.35 trillion.

    When you escalate Obama’s cuts by a conservative 2% CPI inflation rate YOY they still fall short of trumps 1.5trillion. Even a higher %.

    As for Reagan’s, due to the high inflationary environment of the 1980’s (13.5% average) it significantly eroded the purchasing power of the dollar.

    Therefore, the tax cuts impact on the economy was reduced.
    So it remains to be seen the true value vs trumps cut.

    As for the % of GDP argument:

    - Trumps worked out to be 0.7% annually or 7% of GDP over the 10 year period.
    - Bush’s 2001 EGTRR 6% over 10 year period.
    - Obama at 0.2% annually.
    - JFK’s 1964 at 0.3% annually.

    Despite this, there are still further flaws with % of GDP - the timing of said tax cuts with the strength of the GDP.

    10% of a weak GDP is less than 10% of a strong GDP.

    Bush’s 2001 cut was enacted during a recession and slow recovery.
    An economy that moved from 4.8% growth in 2000 to 1% flat on 2001.

    Obamas 2009 tax cut was during one of the worst economic downturns for the US.
    High unemployment, contracting by 2.5%.

    Trumps tax cuts was during a 2.4% GDP growth, lower unemployment and high consumer confidence.
