Voice of America reported the following about the latest Democratic debate:

Democrats in Presidential Debate Spar Over Foreign Policy, Climate

November 21, 2019

The impeachment inquiry into allegations President Donald Trump sought to pressure Ukraine was the dominant focus Wednesday in Washington and the first topic on the agenda Wednesday night as Democrats competing to be the party’s nominee in the 2020 election squared off in their latest debate in Atlanta.

Those on the stage stood united in their support for the impeachment probe and their opposition to the president they each hope will be their opponent when voters across the country go to the polls a year from now.

Senator Bernie Sanders called Trump perhaps the most corrupt president in modern U.S. history, but cautioned against making opposition to Trump the sole focus in the push to defeat the president at the polls. He pointed to economic challenges faced by those who lack health insurance or housing, and the “existential crisis” of climate change as he said the government can take on both of those and investigating Trump.

Senator Elizabeth Warren cited the earlier probe by special counsel Robert Mueller, who looked into Russian meddling in the presidential election in 2016 and whether Trump sought to obstruct the probe once he was in office. Warren said a lack of congressional action on that matter emboldened Trump in the current scandal, in which he is facing allegations he sought to pressure Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, a leading political rival.

Biden said, if elected president, he would not interfere with the Justice Department in considering whether to investigate Trump for any potential criminal charges, leaving that decision up to the independent determination of the attorney general. Biden also expressed the need for a “return to civility” and uniting the country, as he rejected recent instances of crowds chanting, “Lock him up,” in reference to Trump and his often-cheered “Lock her up” chants at his political rallies.

Senator Cory Booker also supported the idea of the next president being someone who brings the nation together, but he said that was not to have some sort of nice moment among the American people, but rather to work together to achieve “great things.” …

Senator Kamala Harris criticized Trump’s meetings with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, saying the U.S. leader “got punked” and “traded a photo op for nothing.”

Meanwhile, South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg blasted Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard for having met with the “murderous” dictator Bashar al-Assad during a trip to war-torn Syria in 2017. Gabbard replied that Buttigieg “lacks the courage” to sit down with U.S. enemies and seek common ground.

When asked what he would say in a first phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, entrepreneur Andrew Yang said he would tell Putin that the days of meddling in U.S. politics are over, and that his administration would see any efforts at undermining as “an act of aggression.” …

Buttigieg and Gabbard found common ground in voicing support for reforming the U.S. agriculture industry as a key piece in combating climate change.

Gabbard said “hyper partisanship” in Washington has created gridlock that stands in the way of making progress on climate action and pledged to end subsidies for fossil fuel companies while instead investing in a green economy.

Billionaire Tom Steyer promoted himself as the candidate most focused on climate, saying he would use the power of the presidency to declare a “state of emergency on day one” in office. …

On the economic front, Senator Amy Klobuchar said that while Democrats need to “think big” when it comes to ideas for the country, there is an obligation to be fiscally responsible and “be honest about what we can pay for.” Klobuchar has criticized Warren for proposing many big-ticket social programs without showing how she would pay for them other than with a “wealth tax” on the richest Americans. https://www.voanews.com/usa/us-politics/democrats-presidential-debate-spar-over-foreign-policy-climate

While I basically agree with Democrats that Donald Trump has issues, none of those I saw speak last night appear to have the moral leadership that the USA really needs. Unbiblical economic and other proposals were made that I saw when I caught parts of the debate last night.

The USA needs repentance and the Kingdom of God. None of the candidates (including the current President) advocates that.

Whoever wins in 2020 will be dangerous.

None of what I watched, heard, or read related to that Democratic debate suggested to me that any of the candidates understood the fundamental problems facing the USA. And of course, none called for repentance nor turning to biblical morality.

What is happening is a ‘recipe for disaster’ for the US no matter who wins (Republican or Democrat or ?) in 2020.

The reality is that the US is in the process of bankrupting itself economically and morally. It is basically already there, but it looks like many want to accelerate the fall of the US, and several of the Democratic candidates were proposing economic plans which look to do that.

And yes, the federal debt has greatly increased under Republican Donald Trump–he did not reverse the trend like he promised he would (see also Great financial crash of 2020? US government debt up 26%!).

Of course, by virtue of the timing, whoever is elected in 2020, Democrat or Republican, will be apocalyptic.

Within a decade or so, the US will be taken over (cf. Daniel 11:39) and debt and sin will be factors (Habakkuk 2:6-8) (see USA in Prophecy: The Strongest Fortresses and Does God Have a 6,000 Year Plan? What Year Does the 6,000 Years End?).

The late Pastor General of the old Worldwide Church of God stated the following in a Bible Study, November 8, 1980:

1932 … You remember that was the year that FDR (Franklin Roosevelt) was running against Hoover. And the polls said it was about even, and I knew it was not going to be even, because I said “the polls are not accurate.” You know why? They don’t know how to do it. They don’t get information from a large enough percentage of all the people. And they don’t get information from the right percentage of each block. …

How Satan Influences Governments

   But the governments in this world are all influenced on the idea of get. Now every vote group (I mentioned all these groups in the vote) every group wants to GET what is right for them to get for their interests. They don’t care what happens to anyone else.
What about the politicians? Well they want to get the vote. They just want to get the POWER.

The Problems are spiritual

   You know our troubles in this world are all spiritual, and people don’t know that; and they can’t think spiritually because they don’t have a spiritual mind. You can’t have a spiritual mind without the Holy Spirit of God; and the people in the world don’t have that. So until Christ comes, and until He sets up the Government of God…

The Way of Give and the Way of Get

   Now you cannot have a government without a basic foundational law, or a constitution, on which your government is based. In the United States we have the Constitution of the United States. We have one for every State in the Union. There is a basic law for every city, for every county, for every state, for every nation. The basic law of the government of God is simply the way of life that is summed up in the one word Love; but it is out flowing love, not incoming love, because then incoming love is lust.

   And I don’t like to use the word “love” because people today call illicit sex, “love” and that’s not love at all. That is lust. But it is out flowing, so I use the word “give” to show it’s out from yourself. The transgression of that way, (or the wrong way then) is “get.” I use the word “get” and “give.” That makes it simple and people can understand and as I speak to people in foreign nations and before crowds of people in foreign nations, I use the words “give” and “get” and they can understand that. https://www.hwalibrary.com/cgi-bin/get/hwa.cgi?action=getbstudyav&InfoID=1337169772

Yes, “get” is a motivation for politicians and many of their supporters.

Related to the 2020 campaign, the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) put out the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:

11:23

Various politicians have announced their intentions to run for the office of the President of the United States in 2020. ‘Politico’ ran an article about the ‘sorry state’ of various candidates. Some candidates have felt the need to apologize for previous statements in support of biblical marriage and the need to endorse items of the LGBTQ agenda. Many also support abortion and other anti-biblical actions. Are these ‘American values’? Should the English language be changed to eliminate male/female and singular pronouns? Does the Bible warn about female leaders? Does the Bible warn about leaders that lead people to err? What about condoning sexual immortality? Do the presidential contenders fit prophecies warned about in 2 Timothy 3:1-5? These are some of the subjects that Dr. Thiel addresses.

Here is a link to the sermonette video: Sorry state of the 2020 presidential campaign.

Pray for the Kingdom of God to come (Matthew 6:10). Also pray as Jesus taught:

34 “But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. 35 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:34-36)

We can expect troubles and tribulation before Jesus returns (Mark 13:8-20).

And that will happen no matter which party wins the 2020 US Presidential election.
