Yeah, no, see, no one want's to "legalize abortion til 9 months." That's hogwash, just crap you get from Republicans who want you to hate Dems, so you'll mindlessly support Republicans. Also, since you assumed Dems were for that 9-month thing (which they aren't), what does that say about why Jesus would vote for Trump? You didn't list any reason(s) why he'd vote for Trump. Right? Did you forget?
So, to summarize, there's no reason Jesus would vote for Trump, and the reason you said against Dems is a lie.

@trickmuffinful Okay. Let's get specific, professor.
First, I didn't say Palestine, by that name, existed back then. In fact, I specifically said the name didn't, but the place we today call Palestine did, of course.
And that Palestine in Jesus' day was part of the Roman Empire. Galilee was then in what would later be called Palestine. It is now Northern Israel, because Israel took it by conquest in the 1960s. The same goes (or went) for Nazareth.
Jesus was born in what would become known as Palestine, but was (in the late '60s) taken by Israel. And, similarly, he was raised in Palestine.
In fact, he spent all of his time in Palestine, because the Jews wanted to kill him. And they did when he finally went to Jerusalem.
Not as cut and dry as you assumed, huh?

@trickmuffinful Did you miss the complexity there? I can see your point. But the actual point isn't as black and white as you're pretending.
I could try to paraphrase it better, if you need? Seems like I nailed it, but okay....
Here's where you were correct: Jesus was from, lived in, and ministered in what is today legally called Israel.
Cool?
But, here's the rub: Israel got that territory from Palestine by conquest in the late '60s. Right? Palestine was actually a named place by then, as you said.
However, and here's where you aren't exactly correct: In Jesus' time, where he was born, lived, and ministered in is what Israel conquered in the late '60s. That is...Palestinian territory.
Ergo, Jesus was a Jew who spent his entire life in that very territory, which would come to be known as Palestine, before it was conquered by Israel.
That's as clear as I can make it. So you aren't exactly wrong. Cheer up, little camper. But you aren't right either.
