4/ the politicians they support are now just as bad. They are not pro life. They are not pro business. Maybe I was late to the party. I still was prepared to vote for many of the GOP candidates in 2016. But as we saw what happened with the nomination and how...
5/ one by one all the contenders from Christie and Rubio and Cruz fell in line behind Trumpism it was clear the GOP was no longer a party of ideas. It’s a party of personality. I will never understand the grip that evil man has on so many people who call themselves Christians
6/ he has not a single quality that you’d find of any good men in the Bible. It all comes down to money and hatred for liberals. That’s what drives his supporters, especially the evangelicals and religious ones. As long as you check those boxes then you are ok with them
7/ Jesus would not recognize any of them today as his followers.
