What will the "Evangelicals" say about, Mr Trump admitting he lied to the entire world?

What do you think????
...In a very well known document, The Bible, The Lord said...

COMMANDMENT 9, of the ....10 COMMANDMENTS

.................9.“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor."

When Trump told the country that he had, "No business dealings with Russia"
And it turns out that he did, and other people believed this, and some other
people are in deep trouble because of Trump lying about this....And other people
could spend a whole lot of time in jail, because they lied about this too.

.................So what will the Evangelical Christians and believers say?
It does look to me that Trump gave.."false witness against his neighbor"

Nixon's White house lawyer says this is worse than Watergate.

....John Dean says so. He served time in jail for his part in Watergate. I remember his testimony as he gave it. Yes, he is still alive and giving lectures and he is on political shows discussing his views on Trump. He is 80 years old. I have read his views on Trump and the current mess. Those of us who saw and heard him testify in 1973, believed him above Nixon and the rest of the gang..(even though he was a member of the gang)..I don't have links yet, but I wanted to add this as Cohen goes down and some of the Trump gang goes down. A number of them already have. Since it feels like Watergate, smells like Watergate, reads like Watergate, looks worse than Watergate.I believe in my heart, it will end like Watergate. Trump will have to resign.
....I don't think Dean has said that Trump will resign, (I don't know)but, I still think Mueller will get Trump, as I have said before. When? Leave that up to Mueller. If?...Many of us are saying this is a done deal. Trump will go down, just like Nixon... Why? The proof will come out, and is coming out now, just like Watergate in 73 and 74. Trump and his family are toast, burnt toast. I believe the entire gang will end up in jail. (including some unsuspected gang members who we didn't know were gang members)...Thank You for reading this..

A very short well known poem describes Trump completely: Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again

Why Manafort lied to Mueller? He thought he could get away with it.

....It is that simple. He was absolutely sure that Mueller wouldn't figure it out, and that he, Manafort, was smarter than Mueller. Manafort had to believe that. Where did he get that thinking?..Your guess is as good as mine, but perhaps an idea. Manafort was the head of Trump's campaign..Is that correct?..Then he was in charge of the lies put out by that campaign. And he got away with it. The campaign elected Trump as President. That is even more important. He got away with the lies during the campaign, and never had to answer for them, because he won and was protected by Trump. So what difference is another lie? to Mueller? So what?...He won't figure it out..(that had to be his thinking) He, Manafort, (in his thinking) will outsmart Mueller. That is why he lied. It had to be the reason.
....What Manafort was so stupid about was one simple idea. That idea is that Mueller had spent his entire career figuring out who was telling the truth and who was lying. That Manafort could NOT get away with lying to Mueller is something Manafort should have known. So now Manafort will be in jail for the rest of his life. (probably) Not only for what he did originally, but lying to Mueller as well.

Trump is playing 3 Dimensional Chess against Mr. Spock.

...3 Dimensional Chess was a game Mr. Spock on Star Trek was an expert at. Spock's character was a brilliant logical thinker who was the 2nd in command of the space ship that the story is about. 3 Dimensional Chess is played with logic and the ability to calculate future moves. (like chess)..Mr. Spock was one of the best at this game. Mr. Spock always won and it was one of the ways that we saw his inherent brilliance (among many)
...From time to time Spock played against newcomers. If you watched the show for awhile, you knew who was going to win. Sometimes Spock would allow the other player a few moves to let him think he had chance..and then without any warning Spock wins with a brilliant not expected move.

Mr. Trump is a player who has always had help from some lawyer to get through this or that. He gets through, and pays a fine, or a business goes bankrupt or he gets a divorce or whatever. He is over confident that he is going to win the game because he is who he is, and his history gives him that perspective...

Mr. Mueller is Mr. Spock in this situation. Mr. Mueller knows the game and is a brilliant player. Little by little Mr. Mueller knocks off Mr. Trumps helpers and pretenders to be. One at a time they are knocked off. Mr. Mueller is very patient. To get thru war, you have to be. Mr. Mueller has been through war. Mr. Trump thinks he knows, but he doesn't know anything. Mr. Trump is playing a game against someone that he yells at and thinks he will push over. Yelling won't help anyone beat Mr. Spock, and it won't help anyone beat Mr. Mueller.

....Mr. Mueller is very patient in playing this game He has played before. He is a champion at this game. A very quiet champion. He will win, and has probably already set up his final moves. It does look that way. Look who is looking for a deal? Mr. Trump can yell and scream about this or that, but in my opinion, Mr. Trump has lost and it is just a question of time till everyone knows it. And Mr.Trump's whole gang will go down. Many already have gone down. Mr. Mueller will get Mr. Trump. It is just a matter of time. They got Nixon, and Mr. Mueller will get Mr. Trump. He has probably already got him, but Mr. Trump and the rest of us don't know yet. With patience will come the answer.

General Motors will stop production of 6 cars

Source: CNN Business.

General Motors will end production of 6 sedans by the end of 2019.. Customers want SUVs, crossovers, hatchbacks and trucks. Sedans have gone out of favor. As GM adjusts to changing customer behavior, it is also planning for the future. The company announced massive layoffs yesterday, and the closing of 5 North American facilities as it transitions to self driving electric cars of the future. The soon to be closed plants means that GM will no longer make these cars.

There are pictures of the 6 sedans at the above link...Buick LaCross, Chevy Cruse, Chevy Impala, Cadillac CT6, Cadillac XTS, and Chevy Volt.

Very cheap, and Very Ugly way to improve insulation from a wall facing the cold wind.

Winter is upon us again. Yes, I have a wall that faces the West and Northwest cold winds..Where I live in Illinois we face brutal winters and that wall doesn't seem to insulate very well. But I fixed it.
......Yes, that wall is very ugly with the fix.
......Yes the fix was very, very cheap...but ugly.
......No, I did not have any major construction done on the wall.
......NO, I did not paint it, or add another wall over that wall. You know, like add some wall boards over the wall for insulation..NO..

What did you do?.....I bought a large roll of masking tape...
........................Then I bought some sheets...got up on a ladder..and hung the sheets over the wall..covering the entire wall. So the wall was covered by the sheets I bought. So, I had one layer of sheets, and then added another layer of sheets. The sheets were clean when I hung them up, so they covered the wall. ..
............sounds absolutely ugly and awful........yes, it does not look good. A wall covered by 2 layers of sheets.??...................You got to be kidding?........except it insulates the wall from the cold wind.....
...........and the room is warmer with that double layer of sheets covering the entire wall. Come spring, I may take them down, and wash them. yes, it keeps the hot air out too (summer)..You say that is ridiculous..
OK...I say that is ridiculous.....but it works....Where did you get that ridiculous idea????

When I go to sleep at night, I sleep with a double layer of sheets. The bedroom gets cold and that double layer of sheets over me really keeps me comfortable and warm.. So, I tried it on the wall, with the cold air..Yes, I have blankets on me at night, and no I don't put blankets on the wall.. The double layer of sheets over the wall protects the inside against the very cold wind and zero degree cold air. Yes, you could cover windows if that is what you want for a few months. If it really improves the temperature and cuts down the cold air................................................................OH DID I FORGET TO TELL YOU.................
...................................THAT WALL IS VERY, VERY UGLY,.. BUT MUCH WARMER....sheets insulate the wall, just like the sheets insulate me when I sleep....its cheap, how much are 4 large sheets to hang on a an entire wall?..and some making tape....oh..it does reduce the heating bill a little, but yes it does keep that room warmer.
.........................it is very very ugly......but I am not running a show for home designers....Oh, If it doesn't work, take sheets down and use them on your bed. All you have wasted is a large roll of masking tape...This is not recommended by the home designers club, the painters club, or the wall board manufacturers..or the carpenters....Hanging sheets on a wall to provide some insulation, is not new. It has been done before. The masking take will hold up the sheets for the winter. Use as much as you need to keep the sheets in place. Yes, it will work, it worked for me, it is simple to understand, and a couple of people could cover a wall in a relatively short time.......oh...did I tell you..2 things..it is cheap, and VERY VERY UGLY. BUT it works...

Barack Obama on children on the other side of the border, May 25, 2017

Scroll down to see this quote... 5th, 6th and 7th paragraphs of article at link

_________________________________________________________________________________________

"We have to push back against those trends that would violate human rights or that would suppress democracy or that would restrict individual freedoms of conscience and religion," Obama said.

"In the eyes of God, a child on the other side of the border is no less worthy of love and compassion than my own child," he said. "We can't distinguish between them in terms of their worth and their inherent dignity, and that they're deserving of shelter and love and education and opportunity."

"Part of the job, I think, of governments is to express humanity and compassion and solidarity with those in need, but also recognize that we have to operate within legal constraints and institutional constraints and the obligations that we have to the citizens of the countries that we serve," he said. "And that's not always easy."

________________________________________________________________________________________

Most important to me, is middle paragraph, which I highlighted. (was not like that in original article at link)
