'''Anthony Bouchard''' is a state senator in [[Wyoming]] as of 2021, who has announced his candidacy to challenge Rep. [[Liz Cheney]] (R-WY) in her primary in 2022.<ref>https://buckrail.com/wyoming-state-sen-anthony-bouchard-announces-2022-campaign-for-cheneys-house-seat/?fbclid=IwAR3T8WSU53uUz4UuIjRR8IYiI6UNJUvJwl8qJybFfsEvB5iT9XxC6cg6up4</ref>

He is infamous for his history of sexual crimes; when he was 18, he raped a 14 year old girl which led to a teenage pregnancy and married her when they were 19 and 15. She ended up killing herself at the age of 20 after remarrying. He insists there was nothing wrong with this and publications reporting on the crimes are trying to smear him.<ref>https://trib.com/news/state-and-regional/govt-and-politics/us-house-candidate-bouchard-says-he-impregnated-14-year-old-when-he-was-18/article_c3996062-e6ad-5027-96a9-1bcd0f832eda.html</ref>

Gaetz has been targeted by [[neocons]] for among other things his opposition to Saudi Arabian influence on American politics, his opposition to war with [[Iran]], his open contempt for [[George W. Bush]], and his public feud with [[Liz Cheney]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri4D0Raczqo</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/mattgaetz/status/1215447980305797122</ref> <ref>https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2020/07/21/liz-cheney-asked-some-republicans-step-down-after-trump-criticisms/5480384002/</ref> <ref>https://www.wyomingpublicmedia.org/post/us-rep-matt-gaetz-urges-wyoming-unseat-liz-cheney#stream/0</ref>Their influence may have resulted in him being excluded from Trump's impeachment defense team.<ref>[https://nypost.com/2020/01/23/matt-gaetz-says-he-was-kept-off-impeachment-defense-team-over-war-powers-vote/ Matt Gaetz says he was kept off impeachment defense team over war powers vote]. ''New York Post''.</ref>

He indicated in December 2020 that he would object on the [[House]] floor to the certification of [[Joe Biden]] based on [[Electoral fraud]] in the [[United States presidential election, 2020]].

Despite all of the above, Gaetz does have some liberal views on social issues. In 2015, while serving in the [[Florida]] state legislature, he sponsored a repeal on its ban on adoption by [[homosexual]]s,<ref>https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Documents/loaddoc.aspx?FileName=720277.docx&DocumentType=Amendments&BillNumber=7013&Session=2015</ref>. In 2019, he defending Rep. [[Katie Hill]] (D-CA) before she resigned over a sex scandal. Gaetz also defied [[conservative]]s by voting to increase [[visa]] caps for high-skilled (i.e., high-paid) workers (2019 roll call h437) and he voted against showing support for the [[ICE]] border agents (2018 roll call h337).<ref>http://politicsthatwork.com/voting-record/Matt-Gaetz-412690</ref> Although, these were relatively minor bills, and Gaetz has been largely a staunch conservative on immigration. Some of those views on social issues have been reversed, an example would be voting against the radical Equality Act.

In 2021, he was accused of taking a seventeen-year-old girl across state lines for sex, which prompted an FBI investigation. Gaetz denies these claims and has stated that they are the product of an extortion scheme targeting him and his father, former Florida State Senate President Don Gaetz.[https://www.businessinsider.com/matt-gaetz-sex-trafficking-extortion-investigation-explainer-timeline-2021-3] In the months prior to [[Donald Trump]]'s departure from office, Gaetz is alleged to have sought a pardon from the President, although both men have denied that such a request was ever made.[https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-defends-matt-gaetz-denies-florida-congressman-asked-pardon-1581697] Meanwhile, leaked texts indicate the possibility of Israeli Embassy involvement in the alleged extortion scheme, which in turn was centered around efforts to raise money to get the now-deceased FBI agent Robert Levinson released from Iranian custody. All parties involved in the alleged scheme have denied that whatever they requested or demanded amounted to extortion; and the Israeli consulate employee involved in the scheme has claimed that he didn't know about the allegations against Gaetz until shortly before they were made public, in the process implying that he may not have been "kept entirely in the loop" about the situation.[https://www.theamericanconservative.com/state-of-the-union/leaked-texts-from-israeli-consular-official-show-more-details-in-gaetz-levinson-funding-scheme/]

::::::but that's still not right, even if its legal???? 14 and 15 year olds cant consent. even if bouchard was 14 it would still be rape to have sex with a 14 year old and make her pregnant. if we lived in a competent country her death would have been investigated, and we would know why she killed herself or she wouldnt have at all because this pos pedo would be locked up [[User:Wikimedianism|Wikimedianism]] ([[User talk:Wikimedianism|talk]]) 18:27, 25 May 2021 (EDT)
:::::::Well, we have several problems here. For example, the [[Biden junta]] asst secretary of health refuses to say if chemical castration is genital mutilation. And children certainly lack the legal capacity to consent to genital mutilation and chemical castration, yet the Biden junta encourages it. Same with abortion. Then we have the problem of prosecuting statutory rape. Generally, most states have only done so when the parents do not consent to marriage. In fact, that's probably why the laws are on the books allowing minors to marry below the age of consent. Laws have since changed in many states, and reports cannot even confirm what the age of consent was in those states at that time. But parental consent of the marriage makes the point moot, anyway.
:::::::When the Biden DOJ and NY state Attorney General begin investigating and prosecuting persons named in the various Jeffrey Epstein affidavits for statutory rape, where the question of parental consent is not even involved, your points are beyond moot in the present day.

Hello, Rob. I'm back. Hope you've been well. Thanks for all your efforts and hard work in making Conservapedia the great place that it is. I wonder if you've seen the recent Gordon Cromwell Report on the Status of Global Christianity 2021? I'm praying and working for Global Christianity to reach 3 Billion Souls - wow, how pleasing that would be to the Lord Jesus - by 2030. Please work with me and may all Christians unite for Christendom's sake!

== My update to the civility guideliness ==

Andy approved my addition to the civility portion of the [[Conservapedia:Guidelines|Conservapedia guidelines]].[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:33, 29 March 2021 (EDT)

:This is the update I created: "For content disputes, be reasonable and make every effort to use an article's talk page to have a cordial and constructive dialogue. Stick to the facts in content disputes and back up your facts with a source or sources. If you are proposing alternative content in a content dispute, it must be sourced. Do not engage in personal attacks. Avoid bringing up irrelevant past disputes with editors and stick to the content dispute at hand. If you have a content dispute with another editor, do not immediately post to the other editor's personal talk page. The article talk pages is where the vast majority of discussion should take place. Avoid unnecessary content disputes by sourcing your article content."[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:34, 29 March 2021 (EDT)

== RobS and Northwest content disputes involving historical matters ==

I see a lot of disputes between RobS and NorthWest involving historical disputes. Below I give some great rules of weighing historical evidence.

=== Recommendations related to historical claims made by this article and information related to historiography ===

*[http://amorebeautifulquestion.com/historians-view-of-questioning/ Some keen insights from Pulitzer Prize–winner David Hackett Fischer]

*[http://historiansgaze.blogspot.com/2013/09/history-1701-reading-for-week-two.html Introduction to history]

*[http://historiansgaze.blogspot.com/2009/10/7-habits-of-highly-effective-historians.html 7 habits of highly effective historians]

"Fischer, David Hackett, Historians’ Fallacies: Toward a Logic of Historical Thought (New York: Harper Collins, 1970). In only approximately 300 pages, Fischer surveys an immense amount of background historical literature to point out a comprehensive variety of analytical errors that many, if not most, historians commit. Fischer points out specific examples of faulty or sloppy reasoning in the work of even the most prominent historians, making it a useful book for beginning students of history. While this book presumably did not make Fischer popular with many of his peers, it should be noted that his contributions as a historian have not been limited simply to criticizing the work of others; since 1976, he has published a number of well-received books on other historical topics."[http://history.nasa.gov/thinking/hist-4.html]

==== Fischer's 7 habits of sound historiography ====

Fischer's 7 rules for historians taken from [[Josh McDowell]]'s book The New Evidence that Demands a Verdict:

(1) The burden of proof for a historical claim is always upon the one making the assertion.

(2) Historical evidence must be an answer to the question asked and not to any other question.

(3) "An historian must not merely provide good evidence, but the best evidence. And the best evidence, all other things being equal, is the evidence which is most nearly immediate to the event itself."

(4) Evidence must always be affirmative. Negative evidence is no evidence at all. In other words, Fischer is saying that an absence of evidence is not necessarily evidence of absence.

(5) The meaning of any historical evidence is dependent upon the context from which it is obtained from.

(6) "An empirical statement must not be more precise than its evidence warrants."

(7) "All inferences from historical evidence are probabilistic."

Josh McDowell's Evidence that Demands a Verdict, page 674, 1999, Mark MCGarry, Texas Type and Book Works, Dallas, TX, ISBN 0-7852-4219-8)

== Black Lives Matter / Stacey Abrams / Noah Green ==

What was the idea of undoing [https://conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Black_Lives_Matter&curid=138053&diff=1741707&oldid=1741699 my edits] in the [[Black Lives Matter]] article, which I intended to clean up part of the article (including replacing liberal-preferred terms with more appropriate ones) and add info? Also regarding [https://conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Stacey_Abrams&curid=152713&diff=1741677&oldid=1717133 the edit you pointed out] in the Stacey Abrams article, I didn't miss it because it was accurate and sourced and it didn't need to be dealt with. In the [[Noah Green]] article, I also replaced the New York Times and Mediaite links with one from TGP because [[Conservapedia:Editing article and talk pages#Partisanship of Sources|per CP's guidelines, liberal news sources (such as the NYT and Mediaite) are not trustworthy due to their partisan bias and penchant for blatantly lying to suit the liberal narrative]]. Are you just trying to stir up trouble again because I'm actually trying to get articles cleaned up? [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] ([[User talk:Northwest|talk]]) 03:10, 3 April 2021 (EDT)

:I just reviewed the CP Guidelines page you linked to, and nowhere on that page does the phrase "liberal news sources" appear, let alone your specific parenthetical inclusions. Nice try. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]][[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]] 19:34, 4 April 2021 (EDT)

== Re: Your recent post on my talk page ==

In case you didn't get the memo, Islam is not a "race", and making such a false accusation (as well as falsely accusing me of "trolling") is not only a case of you doing the trolling yourself (and trying to start yet another fight), but by making it about race when it has nothing to do with such (which [[liberalism and racism|only liberals do]]), you're displaying racism yourself. Tread lightly. [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] ([[User talk:Northwest|talk]]) 10:04, 4 April 2021 (EDT)

:Full disclosure: here is the text of an email I just sent to Andy.
{{quotebox|"I have just cause to be angry about User: Northwest's racist trolling. RobSmith edits under his real life identity. In an effort to find neutral language for the birther movement, I am the Admin who reverted Northwest's racist trolling and put in "said to be born in Honolulu" (as cited by Eugene Robinson of WaPo). I cleaned up Northwest's racist trolling in at least a half dozen articles with neutral compromise language. For those efforts, there now is a webpage on the internet calling me a racist and birther, for which I am neither. And Northwest does not edit under his true life identity.

Andy can't be involved in all aspects of CP day-to-day, but had I blocked Northwest for 5 years in 2017 for what on its face looks like subversive racist trolling, Conservapedia would still be in the 30,000 today rather than fighting to remain in top 90,000.

By Andy's actions, trusting and rewarding racists trolls while disciplining good-faith users who risked their own names and reputations, not to mention dedicating their valuable time and lives to the project, makes the notion of CP being a meritocracy a joke. Andy needs to wake up and smell the coffee.}}
I suggest you stop stalking pages I create edit or create, stop harassing other users, and stop making threats and allow Andy to complete his full review. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]][[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]] 10:32, 4 April 2021 (EDT)

:So basically, you lied to Andy and you're lying now on your own talk page (while still trying to make trouble, make false accusations, start fights, play the "victim" and project your own racism and trolling while making your imagined issue about race, even though it actually has nothing to do with race). All you're doing is still making yourself look bad in the process. [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] ([[User talk:Northwest|talk]]) 11:40, 4 April 2021 (EDT)

::Why is it you sound more like a program than a thinking human being? Why are all responses programmed ("only liberals call people racists, therefore you are a liberal", "the NYT is liberal, therefore bad, wrong, and evil", etc). If you are not a sockpuppet of Karajou, you likely advanced your CP career by parroting him. Only Karajou is capable of human reason, emotion, and discussion. You are not.

Hi Rob. Thanks so much.

Kudos to the great work you do.

Question. I noticed, sometimes, there is a block from editing any page, there appears only the 'view sources,' page stating, only administrators can edit.

I see it takes some time from the time I edit a page and seeing the edit while signed on, till it appears to the 'outside world.'

If/when I do have images, how does one upload it here, or how do I send them to you rather?

Thinking of a page dedicated to the issue of using civilians by anti-Anerican and anti-Israel forces. There are images from certain domains. Is there a way you can upload them, so that it is saved, conserved-on-conservapedia?

God bless.[[User:Telling|Telling]] ([[User talk:Telling|talk]])

:(1) We have a robot Minuteman who does temporary autoblocks when it detects unusual activity, such as adding or removing large blocks of text. It accidentally blocked you for about 5 minutes last night til I caught it. Sorry for the inconvenience. We can work around it.

Why, if not intolerance was the particular Fairfax area even chosen?[[User:Telling|Telling]] ([[User talk:Telling|talk]]) 00:23, 21 May 2021 (EDT)

:::::I do have Main Page access for headlines. This site however, is somewhat anti-[[neocon]] so the headlines can't be made to look like somebody is trying to drag the U.S. into war. OTOH, stories about [[AOC]] and [[The Squad]] trying to sabotage U.S. commitments to allies or being sympathetic to terrorists certainly is newsworthy. When you find a headline like that that appeals to U.S. readers, you can feed it to me and I'll see what I can do with it to link the [[Guardian of Walls]] article from the Main Page.

::::::Of course the main page should be about US 'direct' news. I actually joined this site when liberals tried to portrayed Ahmad Al Issa as some Trumpist-white-supremacist... BTW I'm for clarity, especially about bias in the media and that other site.. I am not advocating for any wars. For these decisions I leave for experts. . A little secret... I might be able to dig up some AOL email I sent at the time against invading Iraq. There is also a huge difference between an operation or operations and an invasion. And yes, the elephant in the room is the Islamic Republic of Iran. Weak Biden knows more than Sanders, but he is not the de-facto leader of the Dems... Radical leftists have grown stronger there (not that Omar/Tlaib are true progressives like AOC and Sanders, this pair's true agenda isn't entirely as the others in the group. Their joint appearances should not fool anyone.. The squad isn't made all of the same cloth. Though in reality, on the ground, as is, this gang is detrimental to our country for many aspects) though there is an internal struggle there. The 'conflict' in the middle east is about incitement to intolerance. Since the 1920s by the Mufti (who also assassinated the moderates) and still going on today http://palwatch.org school textbooks, plays/shows at a very young age or in mosque, which is why the April spike in attacks on Jews inside Israel who are known not to serve in the Israeli army shows the 'real' problem, beyond "issus". And of course dead kids pics are powerful in the campaign for this purpose. The element of forcefully spreading one particular religion should not be overlooked.. Further on, 'if' any attacks in the US occur they don't have to be related to 'Guardian of Walls'. Another parallel point, the race card being obsessively abused at every corner for political purposes here in God's great country is played so in the Haaretz phenomenon of the last decades (vs what it was historically they even give voice for rewriters of history), the paper's more popular outside Israel very much adopted by radical left internationally but most in Israel regard it as radical, fringe. Most Israelis have faith in God. || Here is a recent image: https://hannity.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/israel5-1.jpg

== Reverts and "Protected" ==
So engaging in discussion is "harassing" to you? Isn't that was is recommended and the policy? Communication? And engagement? Even if blunt? You put silly stuff on on Northwest's talk page, after did what you did. You obviously have no credibility...so it's irrelevant at this point in a way. But I'm curious.... (And I know you'll probably just dodge and delete...like a rude juvenile no-answer evasive schmuck...as you've proven what type of person and editor you are already...) But I am curious....

Why exactly did you revert me before putting that protection on that JW article, when my reverts were the justified ones? It was obvious POV-PUSHING and opinion and blog bias that was put walls of text by "David" a few months ago. So what was the reason you rudely undid my (necessary) undo, before doing what you did?

Conservapedia leans "conservative" or "right-wing", but it's still supposed to be a fairly neutral objective NPOV encyclopedia, and not a POV ''blog'' of hyper-trinitarians, JW-haters, and anti-Witness conspiracy theorists. There are other websites for that nonsense. NOT Conservapedia. So... Yeah, to you, David,...Northwest. The stuff that David added was what anti-Witness conspiracy theorists and "mainstream" biased church theologians PUT IN IN ANTI-JW BLOGS, videos, books, and private websites....not a supposedly objective encyclopedia article.

:Nope, these are true things about JWs, they're just too uncomfortable to you. The tone of your words indicates that '''you're the one who's thin-skinned.''' [[User:Shobson20|Shobson20]] ([[User talk:Shobson20|talk]]) 09:17, 22 May 2021 (EDT)

David's statement of "conflicting with the Bible's teachings" is a PURE POV OPINION, having nothing to do with neutral encyclopedic anything. Because other people have the opposite view of what David put in...in that regard.

:Uh, no, "conflicting with the Bible's teachings" is '''objective fact.''' The liberal world pretends that religious beliefs are a matter of opinion, but we don't. It is just as much a fact that the "New World Translation" is an inaccurate Bible that removes all references to Christ's divinity. [[User:Shobson20|Shobson20]] ([[User talk:Shobson20|talk]]) 09:17, 22 May 2021 (EDT)

It doesn't matter how many contributions and edits you, or Northwest, or David has made on this site.

An editor on this thing may have hundreds of thousands of edits, hundreds of GAs, FAs, dozens of barnstars and a legion of friends-and-relations; DOESN'T MATTER....because, disruption is disruption, POV is POV, and tendentious malicious mendacious editing is tendentious malicious mendacious editing, no matter who does it.

David put in ANTI-WITNESS hateful neurotic BLOG JUNK, not professional neutral material, in those walls of texts there. And you and Northwest wrongly upheld that POV wording, tone, and nonsense. Why exactly? So then fix wording to make it more neutral and not what "conservapedia" itself thinks. Regards...

:''For his achievements as U.S. President, see [[Donald Trump achievements]].''
:''Donald Trump was [[Conservative of the Year]] in [[Conservative of the Year 2017|2017]] and [[Conservative of the Year 2018|2018]].''
'''Donald John Trump''' (b. [[Queens]], [[New York]], on [[Donald Trump's age|June 14, 1946]]), nicknamed "'''The Donald'''," is the 45th [[President of the United States of America]], as a result of winning the [[2016 presidential election]] as the [[Republican Party]] nominee. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and [[television]] personality. A strong [[conservative]], Trump has [[Donald Trump achievements|achieved much during his presidency]] and advanced many conservative priorities. He has greatly benefited the US energy sector by reducing the energy dependence of the US in the Middle East, helping gasoline prices go down, and encouraging projects such as the Keystone Pipeline. Despite this, he has received more criticism than any U.S. President in history, almost all of which is purely politically motivated.

In the [[United States presidential election, 2020|2020 presidential election]], Trump received at least a record-smashing 74+ million lawful votes, many in the key [[swing states]]. This confirms him as the leader of the [[Republican Party]], indeed the entire nation, for the foreseeable future. Many conservatives who no longer feel they identify with Trump are retiring. This is the most probable cause that at least 25% of Republican senators up in 2022 plan to retire, and many other transitions are occurring among the GOP nationwide.

Trump and his wife Melania tested positive for the [[CCP virus]] in early October 2020.<ref>Multiple references:

[[Leftists]] and the [[MSM]] attempted to downplay Trump's experiences with the virus, claiming that the average American would not have received similar medication. Trump's strong leadership against the coronavirus even after falling ill to it himself shocked many.

Trump has engaged in many financial pursuits and estimated that his net worth was $10 billion, as of July 2015.<ref>LoGiurato, Brett (July 25, 2015). [https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-net-worth-2015-7 "We finally know a lot more about Donald Trump's 'massive' net worth"].

Forbes.com website.</ref> He graduated from the New York Military Academy in 1964 and first attended college at [[Fordham University]] for two years before transferring to the more competitive [[University of Pennsylvania]] and completing his undergraduate studies at its Wharton School of Finance and Commerce. In September 2020, the [[New York Times]] reported on Donald Trump engaging in tax avoidance. It was claimed that his tax avoidance dates back to the 1990s.

Early media profiles of Trump claim he graduated "first in his class" from Wharton.<ref>Whitman, Alden (January 28, 1973).

On June 16, 2015, he declared his candidacy for the Republican nomination in the [[2016 presidential election]].<ref>Multiple references:

Fox News website/Politics. The front-runner in a record-breaking field of 17 [[Republican]] candidates, Trump announced that he did not anticipate "throwing punches" against his rivals in the first GOP debate.
*Chiacu, Donna and Torbati, Yeganeh (August 2, 2015).

But at the debate the [[Fox News Channel]]—particularly its [[feminist]] non-journalist [[Megyn Kelly]]—ambushed Trump with out-of-context quotations designed to smear him as somehow being anti-women. This ignited a national controversy that lasted for days, and Trump called upon Kelly to apologize, which she refused to do.</ref> Unlike most other U.S presidential candidates, Trump sharply criticizes the media and talks about issues that no elected official dares touch. For example, Trump stands up against [[feminists]], unlike most politicians. In another example, in 2011 Trump persistently doubted whether [[Barack Obama]] had been born in the [[United States]], which caused Obama's approval ratings to drop below 40% until Obama finally caved in to Trump and produced what Obama claimed was his birth certificate. Trump then scoffed at Obama's conduct.

'''''In February 2011, Trump announced that he is [[pro-life]], and at the final presidential debate on Oct. 19, 2016, Trump gave the strongest endorsement of the pro-life position of any presidential nominee in history'''''.

Trump's central campaign theme has been to oppose [[illegal immigration]] and [[free trade]], and nominated Senator [[Jeff Sessions]] as [[Attorney General]] to enforce standing legislation on the issue. As reported by [[Breitbart News Network|Breitbart]], "Sen. Sessions, Chairman of the Senate’s Immigration Subcommittee, is widely regarded as the gold standard on immigration. Sessions has also become the intellectual thought leader in the Republican Party on appealing to the blue collar voters who have been abandoned by their political leaders." <ref>Hahn, Julia (August 14, 2015).

Breitbart website/Big government.</ref> In the later campaign Trump focused more on [[ISIS]] and terrorism.

At the final presidential debate between [[Hillary Clinton]] and Trump on October 19, 2016, Clinton chastised Trump for running a newspaper advertisement in 1987 critical of the [[Reagan Administration]]. But Trump persuasively explained that he has always disagreed with Reagan's support of free trade, as many other [[conservatives]] disagree with Reagan on this issue.

==Career==
[[File:Trump business.jpg|right]]
Donald Trump began his career at [[Trump Organization]]. In his college years, he helped revitalize one of his father's failing real estate ventures. Trump began opening hotels and casinos, which provided him with the cash flow to engage in other ventures. He owns the world-famous [[Trump Tower]] and is the founder of the publicly traded Trump Hotel Casinos & Resorts. Trump also owns the Trump brand, which sells a variety of items, such as bottled water, steak, and even mortgages. Trump has authored a number of books and weathered changing business fortunes, but despite the challenges that he has encountered, he has continued to be a successful businessman and entrepreneur.

Trump [[Donald Trump presidential campaign, 2000|ran unsuccessfully]] for the nomination of the [[Reform Party]] in 2000. Trump considered [[presidential election 2012|running for president in 2012]] as a [[Republican]]. He, among others, questioned the citizenship of [[Barack Obama]], citing his failure to produce his birth certificate. After Obama produced his birth certificate, Trump and the other [[birther]]s continue to doubt its authenticity. Obama's approval ratings were around 40% during the peak of the controversy. Trump later exited the race, and gave the customary endorsement to [[Mitt Romney]] as the other [[Republican]] contenders did.

[[File:Donald Trump star.JPG|thumbnail|right|Hollywood Walk of Fame]]
For his contributions to the gaming and entertainment industry, Trump was inducted into the Gaming Hall of Fame in 1995.

In 2003 Trump began as the host and executive producer of the reality [[television]] show ''The Apprentice'' and ''The Celebrity Apprentice'', where contestants compete for a position in Trump's organization. On this show, Trump popularized his catchphrase "You're fired!" Trump received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2007 following the success of ''The Apprentice''. However, since he became president, Trump's star as been periodically vandalized by liberal political critics.<ref>Press Association (April 8, 2016). [http://www.onenewspage.com/video/20160408/4211707/Donald-Trump-Hollywood-Walk-of-Fame-Star.htm "Donald Trump's Hollywood Walk of Fame Star vandalised three times a day"].</ref>

In 2016, following winning the presidential election, Trump was named Person of the Year by [[Time Magazine]].

Trump used to own the Miss Universe and Miss USA pageants. Controversy arose when Miss USA 2006 Tara Conner was caught breaking pageant rules by drinking and other activities. Trump gave her a second chance after personally speaking with her and allowed her to retain her crown as she attended rehabilitation. For several weeks after this, [[Rosie O'Donnell]] berated Trump for his decision on ''The View''. A bitter media war ensued with the two exchanging insults.

Trump has made many guest appearances, usually as himself, on many TV shows and in several movies.

==Political positions==

====Coronavirus Pandemic====
President Trump deferred heavily to [[Hillary Clinton]]-supporter Anthony Fauci, a [[Deep State]] bureaucrat in the [[National Institutes of Health]], in responding to the [[coronavirus]] pandemic in early 2020. Trump rejected the advice of [[White House]] official Peter Navarro to take early action cutting off travel from [[China]], and to make [[hydroxychloroquine]] widely available.

Trump's polls numbers plummeted largely because of his deference to Fauci and unwillingness to take the advice of Navarro. John Fleming, an adviser to Chief of Staff [[Mark Meadows]], also misled Trump by denying the benefits of widespread access to hydroxychloroquine, as other countries have done to defeat [[COVID-19]].

Trump's views are not yet known on other aspects of the [[homosexual agenda]], such as whether Trump would ban [[conversion therapy]] for minors as [[Chris Christie]] did. The [[Fox News Channel]] debate in August avoided these issues.

====Immigration====
{{See also|Donald Trump achievements: Immigration and border security}}
See the discussion in the introduction above. This is Trump's main campaign issue.

A central part of his immigration plan is to build a giant wall on the border with Mexico. Trump estimates it will cost $8 billion, approximately 35 to 40 feet high and stretch 2000 miles.<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/02/09/donald-trump-the-wall-is-probably-8-billion Trump Border Wall]</ref> During the campaign, Trump promised that Mexico will pay for the wall, but after taking office, he clarified that payment could be in the form of a tax on Mexican imports or other revenues measures after the Mexican government showed opposition towards Trump's plan.

Trump has also proposed to temporarily ban [[Muslims]] from entering the United States, until "our leaders figure out what the hell is going on," in order to protect Americans from the threats posed by [[Islamic]] [[refugee]]s (and those pretending to be<ref>[http://m.washingtonexaminer.com/isis-fighters-infiltrating-syrian-refugees-uk-is-warned/article/2572051 ISIS fighters infiltrating Syrian refugees, UK is warned]</ref>) entering the country.<ref>[http://www.donaldjtrump.com/media/donald-trump-insists-muslim-ban-is-about-safety-not-religion Donald Trump Insists Muslim Ban Is About Safety, Not Religion]</ref>

Efforts have been made by hostile journalists to paint Trump as advocating a [[Muslim registry]], but what he actually proposed was a [[database for Syrian refugees]].

====Political contributions====
He has been criticized for his substantial contributions to [[Democrat]] lawmakers; the majority of those lawmakers are located in the states he resides in: New York and Florida. The amount he has donated since 2008 is $25,000, which is insignificant considering his wealth.<ref>Allin, Olivia (April 30, 2011). [http://www.ontheredcarpet.com/Donald-Trump-calls-nations-leaders-stupid-people-and-blood-sucking-politicians/8104644 "OTRC: Donald Trump calls nation's leaders 'stupid people' and 'blood-sucking politicians'"]. OnTheRedCarpet [news]. Retrieved from ABC7 [KABC Television, Los Angeles] website.</ref>

Trump is not known to be beholden to any big-money donors.

====Tariffs====
{{See also|Donald Trump achievements: Trade policy}}
[[File:Donald Trump RNC July 2016.jpg|thumb|Trump accepting the GOP nomination in Cleveland on June 21, 2016.]]
At the 2011 [[CPAC]] conference, he stated that he supports a 25% tariff on Chinese goods.<ref name=Educ/> The number floated around in 2016 is a 45% tariff.

{{cquote|In a statement from his campaign, Mr. Trump charged that [[China]] was “in total violation of WTO regulations” and that the U.S. “has incompetently allowed them to get away with this” and has failed to impose “equal or greater taxes and tariffs” on China. If he is elected president, Mr. Trump said, China “will learn to deal fairly and justly or we will not deal at all” with Beijing.}}

====Vaccines====
Trump believes that [[vaccines]] cause [[autism]]<ref>Ferris, Sarah (September 16, 2015). [https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/253980-trump-links-vaccines-to-autism-epidemic "Trump links vaccines to autism 'epidemic'"]. The Hill website/Policy/Healthcare.</ref> and has argued against requiring that so many vaccines be given to infants.

==== Eminent domain====
Trump believes that the government has the right to take [[private property]] upon paying just compensation for both infrastructure and to promote economic development.

==== Supreme Court====
{{See also|Donald Trump achievements: The courts}}
Trump opposed filling the Supreme Court seat held by [[Antonin Scalia]] before the next President takes office. When asked who he might select to the Supreme Court, he said that his sister, a sitting federal court judge, would make a great Supreme Court justice.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://server5.kproxy.com/servlet/redirect.srv/sruj/sfothrfaqegbnvj/suvw/p2/corner/423196/trump-praises-his-sister-pro-abortion-extremist-judge-ramesh-ponnuru|title=Trump Praises His Sister, a Pro-Abortion Extremist Judge|date=Aug 27, 2015|accessdate=February 21, 2016}}</ref>

Trump had pledged, if elected president, to appoint a special prosecutor to further investigate [[Hillary Clinton]]'s use of a private email server whilst Secretary of State, but Hillary took her crushing defeat so hard that Trump charitably softened his stance after winning.<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/22/us/politics/donald-trump-hillary-clinton-investigation.html Donald Trump Drops Threat of New Hillary Clinton Investigation] New York Times - Nov. 22, 2016</ref> A few of Trump supporters, such as [[Ann Coulter]] and [[Breitbart]], expressed disappointment but Trump rose in overall public approval.<ref>[https://www.newsmax.com/Politics/ann-coulter-slams-trump-clinton/2016/11/22/id/760220/ Ann Coulter Slams Trump's Decision on Clinton] Newsmax.com - Nov. 22, 2016</ref><ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/radio/2016/11/23/peter-schweizer-letting-hillary-off-hook-definition-rigged-system/ Peter Schweizer: Letting Hillary off the Hook Is ‘Definition of a Rigged System’] Breitbart.com - Nov. 23, 2016</ref>

===Quotes from the 2016 campaign for President===
[[File:Donald Trump and Mike Pence RNC July 2016.jpg|thumb|Trump and his running-mate, [[Mike Pence]], at the 2016 Republican National Convention.]]
Trump's tactics of naming and shaming candidates has been proven very effective. He called Jeb Bush 'low-energy Jeb' and it stuck. Then came Marco Rubio as 'Little Marco.' Next came 'Lyin' Ted' for Ted Cruz. For the Democrats, he calls Hillary Clinton 'Crooked Hillary'. He doesn't give Bernie Sanders the same treatment though he has referred to him as a Communist.

*“We will no longer surrender this country or its people to the false song of [[globalism]].”
*"I think we have a president who, as a president, is totally incompetent, and he doesn’t know what he’s doing. I think he has no idea what he’s doing. And our country is going to [[hell]]."<ref>http://time.com/4210983/republican-debate-barack-obama-incompetent/</ref>
*"I will be the greatest jobs president that [[God]] ever created."
*"I’m using my own money. I’m not using the lobbyists. I’m not using donors. I don’t care. I’m really rich."
*"Free trade is terrible. Free trade can be wonderful if you have smart people. But we have stupid people."
*"Nobody would be tougher on ISIS than Donald Trump. Nobody. Within our military, I will find the General Patton, or I will find General MacArthur, I will find the right guy."
*"I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will have [[Mexico]] pay for that wall."
*"I think the big problem this country has is being politically correct."<ref>https://video.foxnews.com/v/4406746003001/watch-a-replay-of-fox-news-prime-time-presidential-debate/?#sp=show-clips</ref><ref>https://www.google.com/search?q=a+big+problem+with+our+country+is+too+politically+incorrect&oq=a+big+problem+with+our+country+is+too+politically+incorrect&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i64l3.8295j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=119&ie=UTF-8</ref>

== Liberal denialism and Donald Trump ==

:''See also:'' [[Liberal denialism and Donald Trump]] and [[Liberal denial]]

Post the 2016 U.S. presidential election many liberals were in denial that Donald Trump was going to be president of the United States. Before the election, many liberal media outlets took the line that Donald Trump could not win the [[Republican]] primary and could not win the presidential election.<ref>
*[https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/11/09/the-wrongest-media-predictions-about-donald-trump/?utm_term=.febb2623a89f The wrongest media predictions about Donald Trump The wrongest media predictions about Donald Trump], ''Washington Post'', 2016</ref>

=== Political scientists, denialism and Donald Trump ===

{{See also|Atheism and science}}

Few, if any, [[Political science|political scientists]] predicted early on that Donald Trump would win the Republican primary and then would subsequently be elected president of the United States. Furthermore, most pollsters indicated that Trump would lose the election.

27 percent of American political scientists believe in the existence of God while 76 percent of American doctors said they believe in God.<ref>
*[http://www.livescience.com/379-scientists-belief-god-varies-starkly-discipline.html Scientists belief in God varies starkly by discipline], Livescience.com
*[https://www.nbcnews.com/id/8318894/ns/health-health_care/t/survey-most-doctors-believe-god-afterlife/ Most doctors believe in God], NBC News</ref> Most American [[atheism|atheists]] lean to the left politically (see: [[Atheism and politics]]). Compared to [[medical science]], which has many effective medicines and surgical procedures, the social science of political science is often unreliable.

===Trump and the mainstream media===
{{See also|Mainstream media and Donald Trump}}
The leftist [[mainstream media]] despises Trump and, under the influence of [[Trump Derangement Syndrome]], refuses to report objectively when covering him.

=== Angry secular leftists and Donald Trump ===

:''See also:'' [[Donald Trump and American atheists]] and [[Secular leftists and psychogenic illness]]

American [[secular left]]ists were extremely angry and upset in the aftermath of Donald Trump's election victory (see: [[Donald Trump and American atheists]]).

In certain cases, it became debilitating (see:: [[Secular leftists and psychogenic illness]]). The website Marketwatch reported concerning the aftermath of the 2016 presidential race: ''Trump’s win is causing a surge in demand for mental health services''<ref>[https://www.marketwatch.com/story/trumps-win-is-causing-a-surge-in-demand-for-mental-health-services-2016-11-10 Trump’s win is causing a surge in demand for mental health services], Marketwatch 2016</ref>

The ''Religion News Service'' reported:
{{Cquote|For the last decade, [[Atheism|atheists]], [[secular humanism|humanists]] and others [[secular]]ists have worked hard to organize a “secular vote” that would counter the political clout of the [[religious right]].

President-elect Donald J. Trump’s victory dealt that movement a body blow when he garnered 81 percent of the white [[Evangelical Christians|evangelical]] vote and 60 percent of the white [[Roman Catholic|Catholic]] vote. [[Mormonism|Mormons]], too, voted overwhelmingly for Trump...

[Trump's] platform was seen as anti-secular in many atheist and humanist circles. He said he would appoint religiously conservative Supreme Court justices, ban [[Islam|Muslim]] immigrants, favor [[Christianity]] and repeal the [[Johnson Amendment]], which prohibits certain tax-exempt organizations from endorsing political candidates — issues antithetical to organized atheism and [[humanism]].<ref>[http://religionnews.com/2016/11/09/dealt-a-body-blow-atheists-and-humanists-regroup/ Dealt a body blow, atheists and humanists regroup] by Kimberly Winston, ''Religion News Service'', November 9, 2016</ref>}}

== Trump's Social Media Ban ==
On January 8, 2021, [[Twitter]] and [[Facebook]], following the Jan 6 riots and insurrection by far right Trump supporters in Washington DC, illegally censored and silenced President Trump on their platforms by permanently suspending his accounts with them.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/breaking-twitter-bans-president-donald-trump-permanently/ BREAKING: Twitter Bans President Donald Trump — PERMANENTLY] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> This was part of co-ordinated collusion between Twitter, Facebook, [[Instagram]], [[Google]] (and its [[YouTube]] subsidiary) and other liberal Big Tech companies to target Trump and his supporters for illegal censorship and silencing of viewpoints and opinions the Left does not like,<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/__trashed-15/ Big Tech Launches Massive Coordinated Cyber Attack on 74,000,000 Trump Voters — GOP SILENT] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> while simultaneously allowing violent leftist individuals and groups like Antifa and Black Lives Matter to have free run of their sites and say and do as they please. Although not officially confirmed as yet, Fox News host [[Sean Hannity]] later reported that Trump has since moved over to conservative social media website [[Parler]], prompting a wave of new accounts to subsequently open up there.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/report-sean-hannity-says-president-trump-joined-parler/ UPDATE – NOT CONFIRMED: Sean Hannity Says President Trump Has Joined Parler] at the Gateway Pundit</ref>

Hello, Rob. I'm back. Hope you've been well. Thanks for all your efforts and hard work in making Conservapedia the great place that it is. I wonder if you've seen the recent Gordon Cromwell Report on the Status of Global Christianity 2021? I'm praying and working for Global Christianity to reach 3 Billion Souls - wow, how pleasing that would be to the Lord Jesus - by 2030. Please work with me and may all Christians unite for Christendom's sake!

In Our Lord Jesus,
Nishant X. God Bless.

Andy approved my addition to the civility portion of the [[Conservapedia:Guidelines|Conservapedia guidelines]].[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:33, 29 March 2021 (EDT)

:This is the update I created: "For content disputes, be reasonable and make every effort to use an article's talk page to have a cordial and constructive dialogue. Stick to the facts in content disputes and back up your facts with a source or sources. If you are proposing alternative content in a content dispute, it must be sourced. Do not engage in personal attacks. Avoid bringing up irrelevant past disputes with editors and stick to the content dispute at hand. If you have a content dispute with another editor, do not immediately post to the other editor's personal talk page. The article talk pages is where the vast majority of discussion should take place. Avoid unnecessary content disputes by sourcing your article content."[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:34, 29 March 2021 (EDT)

== RobS and Northwest content disputes involving historical matters ==

I see a lot of disputes between RobS and NorthWest involving historical disputes. Below I give some great rules of weighing historical evidence.

=== Recommendations related to historical claims made by this article and information related to historiography ===

*[http://amorebeautifulquestion.com/historians-view-of-questioning/ Some keen insights from Pulitzer Prize–winner David Hackett Fischer]

*[http://historiansgaze.blogspot.com/2013/09/history-1701-reading-for-week-two.html Introduction to history]

*[http://historiansgaze.blogspot.com/2009/10/7-habits-of-highly-effective-historians.html 7 habits of highly effective historians]

"Fischer, David Hackett, Historians’ Fallacies: Toward a Logic of Historical Thought (New York: Harper Collins, 1970). In only approximately 300 pages, Fischer surveys an immense amount of background historical literature to point out a comprehensive variety of analytical errors that many, if not most, historians commit. Fischer points out specific examples of faulty or sloppy reasoning in the work of even the most prominent historians, making it a useful book for beginning students of history. While this book presumably did not make Fischer popular with many of his peers, it should be noted that his contributions as a historian have not been limited simply to criticizing the work of others; since 1976, he has published a number of well-received books on other historical topics."[http://history.nasa.gov/thinking/hist-4.html]

==== Fischer's 7 habits of sound historiography ====

Fischer's 7 rules for historians taken from [[Josh McDowell]]'s book The New Evidence that Demands a Verdict:

(1) The burden of proof for a historical claim is always upon the one making the assertion.

(2) Historical evidence must be an answer to the question asked and not to any other question.

(3) "An historian must not merely provide good evidence, but the best evidence. And the best evidence, all other things being equal, is the evidence which is most nearly immediate to the event itself."

(4) Evidence must always be affirmative. Negative evidence is no evidence at all. In other words, Fischer is saying that an absence of evidence is not necessarily evidence of absence.

(5) The meaning of any historical evidence is dependent upon the context from which it is obtained from.

(6) "An empirical statement must not be more precise than its evidence warrants."

(7) "All inferences from historical evidence are probabilistic."

Josh McDowell's Evidence that Demands a Verdict, page 674, 1999, Mark MCGarry, Texas Type and Book Works, Dallas, TX, ISBN 0-7852-4219-8)

== Black Lives Matter / Stacey Abrams / Noah Green ==

What was the idea of undoing [https://conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Black_Lives_Matter&curid=138053&diff=1741707&oldid=1741699 my edits] in the [[Black Lives Matter]] article, which I intended to clean up part of the article (including replacing liberal-preferred terms with more appropriate ones) and add info? Also regarding [https://conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Stacey_Abrams&curid=152713&diff=1741677&oldid=1717133 the edit you pointed out] in the Stacey Abrams article, I didn't miss it because it was accurate and sourced and it didn't need to be dealt with. In the [[Noah Green]] article, I also replaced the New York Times and Mediaite links with one from TGP because [[Conservapedia:Editing article and talk pages#Partisanship of Sources|per CP's guidelines, liberal news sources (such as the NYT and Mediaite) are not trustworthy due to their partisan bias and penchant for blatantly lying to suit the liberal narrative]]. Are you just trying to stir up trouble again because I'm actually trying to get articles cleaned up? [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] ([[User talk:Northwest|talk]]) 03:10, 3 April 2021 (EDT)

:I just reviewed the CP Guidelines page you linked to, and nowhere on that page does the phrase "liberal news sources" appear, let alone your specific parenthetical inclusions. Nice try. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]][[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]] 19:34, 4 April 2021 (EDT)

== Re: Your recent post on my talk page ==

In case you didn't get the memo, Islam is not a "race", and making such a false accusation (as well as falsely accusing me of "trolling") is not only a case of you doing the trolling yourself (and trying to start yet another fight), but by making it about race when it has nothing to do with such (which [[liberalism and racism|only liberals do]]), you're displaying racism yourself. Tread lightly. [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] ([[User talk:Northwest|talk]]) 10:04, 4 April 2021 (EDT)

:Full disclosure: here is the text of an email I just sent to Andy.
{{quotebox|"I have just cause to be angry about User: Northwest's racist trolling. RobSmith edits under his real life identity. In an effort to find neutral language for the birther movement, I am the Admin who reverted Northwest's racist trolling and put in "said to be born in Honolulu" (as cited by Eugene Robinson of WaPo). I cleaned up Northwest's racist trolling in at least a half dozen articles with neutral compromise language. For those efforts, there now is a webpage on the internet calling me a racist and birther, for which I am neither. And Northwest does not edit under his true life identity.

Andy can't be involved in all aspects of CP day-to-day, but had I blocked Northwest for 5 years in 2017 for what on its face looks like subversive racist trolling, Conservapedia would still be in the 30,000 today rather than fighting to remain in top 90,000.

By Andy's actions, trusting and rewarding racists trolls while disciplining good-faith users who risked their own names and reputations, not to mention dedicating their valuable time and lives to the project, makes the notion of CP being a meritocracy a joke. Andy needs to wake up and smell the coffee.}}
I suggest you stop stalking pages I create edit or create, stop harassing other users, and stop making threats and allow Andy to complete his full review. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]][[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]] 10:32, 4 April 2021 (EDT)

:So basically, you lied to Andy and you're lying now on your own talk page (while still trying to make trouble, make false accusations, start fights, play the "victim" and project your own racism and trolling while making your imagined issue about race, even though it actually has nothing to do with race). All you're doing is still making yourself look bad in the process. [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] ([[User talk:Northwest|talk]]) 11:40, 4 April 2021 (EDT)

::Why is it you sound more like a program than a thinking human being? Why are all responses programmed ("only liberals call people racists, therefore you are a liberal", "the NYT is liberal, therefore bad, wrong, and evil", etc).

Hi Rob. Thanks so much.

Kudos to the great work you do.

Question. I noticed, sometimes, there is a block from editing any page, there appears only the 'view sources,' page stating, only administrators can edit.

I see it takes some time from the time I edit a page and seeing the edit while signed on, till it appears to the 'outside world.'

If/when I do have images, how does one upload it here, or how do I send them to you rather?

Thinking of a page dedicated to the issue of using civilians by anti-Anerican and anti-Israel forces. There are images from certain domains. Is there a way you can upload them, so that it is saved, conserved-on-conservapedia?

:: You are do right. BTW, efardibg NY/LA... there is a parallel between the recent Islamic "protesters" appearing in one particular area in Manhattan violently and May 1, 2020 some Islamic "activists" taking advantage of BLM protests and carrying out an attack in LA, including graffiti of "palestine" on a synagogue. It was facilitated by a BLM operative Melina Abdullah (mostly raisd by her mother) who is a Farrakhan fan..

:::::I do have Main Page access for headlines. This site however, is somewhat anti-[[neocon]] so the headlines can't be made to look like somebody is trying to drag the U.S. into war. OTOH, stories about [[AOC]] and [[The Squad]] trying to sabotage U.S. commitments to allies or being sympathetic to terrorists certainly is newsworthy. When you find a headline like that that appeals to U.S. readers, you can feed it to me and I'll see what I can do with it to link the [[Guardian of Walls]] article from the Main Page.

:::::Latest img is uploaded. Bottomline, from my perspective, Israel is at war with Iran right now. Hamas are just the frontline foot soldiers and proxies.

::::::Of course the main page should be about US 'direct' news. I actually joined this site when liberals tried to portrayed Ahmad Al Issa as some Trumpist-white-supremacist... BTW I'm for clarity, especially about bias in the media and that other site.. I am not advocating for any wars. For these decisions I leave for experts. . A little secret... I might be able to dig up some AOL email I sent at the time against invading Iraq. There is also a huge difference between an operation or operations and an invasion. And yes, the elephant in the room is the Islamic Republic of Iran. Weak Biden knows more than Sanders, but he is not the de-facto leader of the Dems... Radical leftists have grown stronger there (not that Omar/Tlaib are true progressives like AOC and Sanders, this pair's true agenda isn't entirely as the others in the group. Their joint appearances should not fool anyone.. The squad isn't made all of the same cloth. Though in reality, on the ground, as is, this gang is detrimental to our country for many aspects) though there is an internal struggle there. The 'conflict' in the middle east is about incitement to intolerance. Since the 1920s by the Mufti (who also assassinated the moderates) and still going on today http://palwatch.org school textbooks, plays/shows at a very young age or in mosque, which is why the April spike in attacks on Jews inside Israel who are known not to serve in the Israeli army shows the 'real' problem, beyond "issus". And of course dead kids pics are powerful in the campaign for this purpose. The element of forcefully spreading one particular religion should not be overlooked.. Further on, 'if' any attacks in the US occur they don't have to be related to 'Guardian of Walls'. Another parallel point, the race card being obsessively abused at every corner for political purposes here in God's great country is played so in the Haaretz phenomenon of the last decades (vs what it was historically they even give voice for rewriters of history), the paper's more popular outside Israel very much adopted by radical left internationally but most in Israel regard it as radical, fringe. Most Israelis have faith in God. || Here is a recent image: https://hannity.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/israel5-1.jpg

I am sorry if I haven't responded. I just don't know that you have sent responses. I am not ignoring them. [[User:ChadUser|ChadUser]] ([[User talk:ChadUser|talk]]) 16:46, 21 May 2021 (EDT)

== Reverts and "Protected" ==
So engaging in discussion is "harassing" to you? Isn't that was is recommended and the policy? Communication? And engagement? Even if blunt? You put silly stuff on on Northwest's talk page, after did what you did. You obviously have no credibility...so it's irrelevant at this point in a way. But I'm curious.... (And I know you'll probably just dodge and delete...like a rude juvenile no-answer evasive schmuck...as you've proven what type of person and editor you are already...) But I am curious....

Why exactly did you revert me before putting that protection on that JW article, when my reverts were the justified ones? It was obvious POV-PUSHING and opinion and blog bias that was put walls of text by "David" a few months ago. So what was the reason you rudely undid my (necessary) undo, before doing what you did?

Conservapedia leans "conservative" or "right-wing", but it's still supposed to be a fairly neutral objective NPOV encyclopedia, and not a POV ''blog'' of hyper-trinitarians, JW-haters, and anti-Witness conspiracy theorists. There are other websites for that nonsense. NOT Conservapedia. So... Yeah, to you, David,...Northwest. The stuff that David added was what anti-Witness conspiracy theorists and "mainstream" biased church theologians PUT IN IN ANTI-JW BLOGS, videos, books, and private websites....not a supposedly objective encyclopedia article.

:Nope, these are true things about JWs, they're just too uncomfortable to you. The tone of your words indicates that '''you're the one who's thin-skinned.''' [[User:Shobson20|Shobson20]] ([[User talk:Shobson20|talk]]) 09:17, 22 May 2021 (EDT)

David's statement of "conflicting with the Bible's teachings" is a PURE POV OPINION, having nothing to do with neutral encyclopedic anything. Because other people have the opposite view of what David put in...in that regard.

:Uh, no, "conflicting with the Bible's teachings" is '''objective fact.''' The liberal world pretends that religious beliefs are a matter of opinion, but we don't. It is just as much a fact that the "New World Translation" is an inaccurate Bible that removes all references to Christ's divinity. [[User:Shobson20|Shobson20]] ([[User talk:Shobson20|talk]]) 09:17, 22 May 2021 (EDT)

It doesn't matter how many contributions and edits you, or Northwest, or David has made on this site.

An editor on this thing may have hundreds of thousands of edits, hundreds of GAs, FAs, dozens of barnstars and a legion of friends-and-relations; DOESN'T MATTER....because, disruption is disruption, POV is POV, and tendentious malicious mendacious editing is tendentious malicious mendacious editing, no matter who does it.

David put in ANTI-WITNESS hateful neurotic BLOG JUNK, not professional neutral material, in those walls of texts there. And you and Northwest wrongly upheld that POV wording, tone, and nonsense. Why exactly? So then fix wording to make it more neutral and not what "conservapedia" itself thinks. Regards...

Wikimedianism: is self admitted and what he is most known for now

'''Anthony Bouchard''' is a state senator in [[Wyoming]] as of 2021, who has announced his candidacy to challenge Rep. [[Liz Cheney]] (R-WY) in her primary in 2022.<ref>https://buckrail.com/wyoming-state-sen-anthony-bouchard-announces-2022-campaign-for-cheneys-house-seat/?fbclid=IwAR3T8WSU53uUz4UuIjRR8IYiI6UNJUvJwl8qJybFfsEvB5iT9XxC6cg6up4</ref>

He is infamous for his history of sexual crimes; when he was 18, he raped a 14 year old girl which led to a teenage pregnancy and married her when they were 19 and 15. She ended up killing herself at the age of 20 after remarrying. He insists there was nothing wrong with this and publications reporting on the crimes are trying to smear him.

Bush]], and his public feud with [[Liz Cheney]].<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri4D0Raczqo</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/mattgaetz/status/1215447980305797122</ref> <ref>https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2020/07/21/liz-cheney-asked-some-republicans-step-down-after-trump-criticisms/5480384002/</ref> <ref>https://www.wyomingpublicmedia.org/post/us-rep-matt-gaetz-urges-wyoming-unseat-liz-cheney#stream/0</ref>Their influence may have resulted in him being excluded from Trump's impeachment defense team.<ref>[https://nypost.com/2020/01/23/matt-gaetz-says-he-was-kept-off-impeachment-defense-team-over-war-powers-vote/ Matt Gaetz says he was kept off impeachment defense team over war powers vote]. ''New York Post''.</ref>

He indicated in December 2020 that he would object on the [[House]] floor to the certification of [[Joe Biden]] based on [[Electoral fraud]] in the [[United States presidential election, 2020]].

Despite all of the above, Gaetz does have some liberal views on social issues. In 2015, while serving in the [[Florida]] state legislature, he sponsored a repeal on its ban on adoption by [[homosexual]]s,<ref>https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Documents/loaddoc.aspx?FileName=720277.docx&DocumentType=Amendments&BillNumber=7013&Session=2015</ref>. In 2019, he defending Rep. [[Katie Hill]] (D-CA) before she resigned over a sex scandal. Gaetz also defied [[conservative]]s by voting to increase [[visa]] caps for high-skilled (i.e., high-paid) workers (2019 roll call h437) and he voted against showing support for the [[ICE]] border agents (2018 roll call h337).<ref>http://politicsthatwork.com/voting-record/Matt-Gaetz-412690</ref> Although, these were relatively minor bills, and Gaetz has been largely a staunch conservative on immigration. Some of those views on social issues have been reversed, an example would be voting against the radical Equality Act.

In 2021, he was accused of taking a seventeen-year-old girl across state lines for sex, which prompted an FBI investigation. Gaetz denies these claims and has stated that they are the product of an extortion scheme targeting him and his father, former Florida State Senate President Don Gaetz.[https://www.businessinsider.com/matt-gaetz-sex-trafficking-extortion-investigation-explainer-timeline-2021-3] In the months prior to [[Donald Trump]]'s departure from office, Gaetz is alleged to have sought a pardon from the President, although both men have denied that such a request was ever made.[https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-defends-matt-gaetz-denies-florida-congressman-asked-pardon-1581697] Meanwhile, leaked texts indicate the possibility of Israeli Embassy involvement in the alleged extortion scheme, which in turn was centered around efforts to raise money to get the now-deceased FBI agent Robert Levinson released from Iranian custody. All parties involved in the alleged scheme have denied that whatever they requested or demanded amounted to extortion; and the Israeli consulate employee involved in the scheme has claimed that he didn't know about the allegations against Gaetz until shortly before they were made public, in the process implying that he may not have been "kept entirely in the loop" about the situation.[https://www.theamericanconservative.com/state-of-the-union/leaked-texts-from-israeli-consular-official-show-more-details-in-gaetz-levinson-funding-scheme/]
