And I am so tired of when I let other people know that I voted for this man, that I am made to think that I am a bad member who is as horrible as they paint him out to be. That just because we voted for him, we must all be mean, hateful, and full of vitriol. I know people who have literally left the church because they think that because people voted for Trump that we must all be mean and hateful members, therefore they no longer recognize us as brothers and sisters and leave the church.

      2. However, moral structures and value systems ARE adopted by political parties. The scriptures are also FULL of politics and political warnings. There is a reason for the war chapters of the BOM. They are political warnings in addition to spiritual warnings.

    I am from Utah. The thing about Romney wasn't him running for president but he saved the Olympics. So when he ran for president we voted for him. Then he became a Senator and we felt he voted woke not how we wanted. He wouldn't be reelected in Utah.
    Utah is somewhat different. SL Co and Weber Co may be more blue than the rest of the state. Sadly, BYU is getting a reputation of being woke.
    Being gracious in victory can be a good thing. WWII was partially caused by the conditions put on Germany after WWI

      Define "support gay marriage". Cause while I 100% will say homosexuality is a sin and against God's plan, I also think that the government shouldn't be involved in people's intimate lives when it is 2 *consenting* adults. If 2 men or women want to have the same legal rights as a married couple according to the laws of the land, then go ahead. That said, God's laws aren't human laws and Homosexuality is against God's Laws.

    I was at an extended family gathering in Utah back in 2016 when Trump had gotten the nomination much to the chagrin of many Utah Republicans . . . We looked at the alternative (Hillary) and decided that we had no choice but to vote for Trump. For me, the 36+ trillion dollar deficit run up by the Democrats trumps every other consideration (no pun intended). Call me a Nazi I guess . . .

    An EGOMANIAC does not cry when he wins the presidency like he did in 2016. He may have been an egomaniac when young but he’s grown out of that and just loves America and cares about the people/American citizens! I don’t feel any ego crap from him today.

    I do think Trump supporters should comport themselves dignity and respect... but I'd push back on the idea that it is the job of those who are hated to console those who are heavily invested in hating them, whether the source of that hatred is being deceived or not.
    Two things:
    1) I think we are what we want to be WAY more than most people give us credit for. Or, said another way: people who want to have compassion, find ways to see the best in others. Those who post Nazi memes are doing so, not just because they are deceived, but because they are LOOKING for someone to hate. Having an existential enemy allows you to feel better about yourself morally without having to change. I think this is one of the big accelerators in the pride cycle.
    2) Christ didn't spend a lot of time trying to win back supporters from the Pharisees. If they came to listen to him, or if they came for healing, he healed them on that basis. He would occassionally alternate between calling out the Pharisees (whited sepulchers), defending himself (if Satan cast out Satan...), and teaching others that action is they to demonstrate a superior ethical position (turn the other cheek). But he does start his sermons with disclaimers: "Look, the Pharisees say I'm X, Y, Z, but guys, I'm really not." Generally, he ignored them as much as he could unless confronted directly by them.
    I do think it behooves us to remember that we wrestle not with flesh and blood but powers of darkness: the people trying to find Nazis everywhere are not our enemies, but the lies and spirit of contention undergirding them.
    The right response to a "My entire Elder's quorum" are Nazi's is to shrug and go do your ministering. The people who *want* to see good will recognize what is happening. It's not our job to force people who want to see evil to adjust their lenses. That's between them and God.

    I recognize that Trump upholds the right principles in certain areas, yet, to put it bluntly, he is still a poor choice of character. His inflammatory rhetoric toward foreigners, his well-documented dishonesty, and his questionable personal ethics, in my view, make him unfit for office. That said, it seems Americans are ultimately getting what they chose.

    I've followed this election from Sweden, and to be honest, I have been quite downcast following this result. I remember the negative impact the previous Trump presidency had on the political stability in the world, and how his attitude and rhetoric made racism, intolerance and hate speech more "acceptable" and expressed more freely in several countries in Europe. (And much more so in the US!) It was a dark time that fuelled the rise of the right wing extremists in European mainstream politics. I saw how right wing parties in Sweden picked up on right wing campaign strategies from the Trump campaign and it's not pretty.
    Also, I fear the risk of war is greater for Europe, since Trump has always been so chummy with pal Putin and openly said that he wouldn't mind letting Putin having free reign (as far as the US and Nato is concerned) in Europe. (Luckily, I don't think Congress would agree.) I don't know why, but Trump seems to hate US allies and love dictators.
    Also, in 2016 he at least surrounded himself with a few reasonable people who knew what they were doing and could mitigate the damage somewhat. He won't make that mistake again. This time, he's only bringing yes-men along. I also fear that doubling down on tariffs will start a trade war that will drag the US economy down and the rest of the world economy with it. I also worry there is a risk this is the start of a Trump dynasty that will trample American democracy under its feet. I miss the US I used to know and trust.

    Jacob, one of the reasons I was drawn to your channel is because you face hard questions straight on and do so, especially with guests, with dignity and respect. But somehow this hasn't translated to the commenters on this channel. If this channel hopes to be the positive influence it seems to want to be, it needs to figure out how to teach the vast majority of commenters here how to build bridges. Some comments are simply expressing relief and excitement. That's fine. But with others, we are witnessing the equivalent of screaming in the face of an opponent in a football game after wining the game. Our covenants demand that we mourn with those that mourn. We need to seek to understand. So, I understand that the content here rarely is about politics, as it should. But with politics weighing so heavily on many subscribers' minds given this season, diving in is necessary from time to time. However, the tone in many of these comments is abhorrent. There are MANY, MANY people that voted for the Harris / Walz ticket BECAUSE of their belief in Jesus Christ. I understand many disagree with that. And being allowed to disagree is important to our country's values. But, again, the tone in the comments for the two "political" videos is alienating and will drive people away from the message. Jacob, right your ship. Help foster a platform with the goal of increasing the size of the tent, not shrinking.

    Kamala Harris didn’t run a “woke” campaign though & she very easily could’ve. She didn’t mention race or gender once. So when Luke starts with “this was a vote against woke” it really wasn’t. The only thing one could maybe say is ppl don’t like the trans situation, but that was happening 4 years ago too. Kamala ran a centrist neoliberal campaign. You can say that’s not who she actually is & fair enough, she did say some crazy stuff during blm. I think she’s more a “say what’s trendy person”. Thats not at all the campaign she ran.
