The Trap

 The news media, even purported conservative media, continue to ask President Trump questions that do not seek the truth or facts, but rather are designed to trap him. To Trump's credit he responds even though he, as well as all viewers, can see through the reporter’s duplicity. Using the words of Jesus, I would love to see Trump respond to such evil intent in a similar manner. “Then the Pharisees went out and laid plans to trap him in his words. They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians. “Teacher,” they said, “we know you are a man of integrity and that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You aren’t swayed by men, because you pay no attention to who they are. Tell us then, what is your opinion? Is it right to pay taxes to Caesar or not?” But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, “You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me” (Matt 22:15-18)?
