This SBC resolution from 1998 comes to mind on a regular basis.
WHEREAS, Tolerance of serious wrong by leaders sears the conscience of the culture, spawns unrestrained immorality and lawlessness in the society, and surely results in God’s judgment (1 Kings 16:30; Isaiah 5:18-25

Wake Forest playing with a different rule book than Louisville.
Louisville not permitted to rough the passer, bailed out not called for grounding is able to then go and score a TD.
It’s legitimately a different game for both teams. Awful

I’m not saying there’s a problem with our national discourse, but I just saw a straw man riding a red herring down a slippery slope.

Trump was pissed his summitry with Xi didn't generate more TV coverage. Maybe launching an idiotic WH media ban days before a prized photo-op was ill-advised? Maybe someone on staff could have said, "Hey, this will be thrown out by the court. And, besides, we have the big summit coming. Best not to mess that up."
But no.
Also, just fyi, Trump's 2024 victory was something like the 44th "biggest" electoral college landslide ever, out of 60 (in other words roughly 75% of presidents had bigger electoral college victories). His popular vote margin was also totally average.
But just to nerd out: It wouldn't matter. Presidents don't get extra powers or privileges when they win in a landslide. Presidents only have the powers delineated in the Constitution. The fact that Trump lies about having won in a landslide in order to beg for better treatment just makes the whole spectacle more pathetic and sad.

Don't worry, I'm sure rolling out the red carpet for Vladimir Putin again at the G20 in Florida later this year will be _way_ more productive.

twf you told the courts you're building a thing crucial to the security of the nation's leaders, then you offer to let our most prominent national enemy tour it

The first people to step into the National Security Ballroom will be President Xi and Chinese leadership?
Trump: If I could go off script just for a second—as a special treat in honor of President Xi, I'd like to invite everyone in the room to visit through that beautiful curtain in the back. It's one year away from completion—the new ballroom that you've heard about… So in honor of you, you'll be the first people to step foot on that. This is in honor of President Xi

Al Mohler, March 2016 on evangelicals falling for the spell of Donald Trump:
“We are now seeing the humbling of evangelicalism in America. Let’s assume that God’s doing this in order that we are to learn from it.”
Here’s the full quote:
“We’ve counted on cultural Christianity as giving us kind of a buffer. We never really thought it was defined by the gospel or defined by the scripture and guess what — now it’s showing up with a vengeance.”
“So, even the liberals, a liberal website, ran an article, trying to explain this phenomenon to fellow liberals.. so they asked the question — who are the evangelicals who are voting for Donald Trump? The evangelicals who don’t go to church.”
*Laughter*
@ryanburge would beg to differ
“Let’s hope that you’re preaching the Word, in such a way consistently, that your people would not be confused and would not reflect this kind of coarseness and crude language and would be repelled by it, let’s hope for that. This tells us that the believing church was a lot smaller than the numbers that many of us have been citing for a long time, for decades as representing the strength of evangelicalism in America. We are now seeing the humbling of evangelicalism in America. Let’s assume that God’s doing this in order that we are to learn from it.”
