How can the Christers support him in one election cycle and abandon him in the next ?
Did God mislead them then, or is He misleading them now ?? Had Santorum been elected, we would be looking at his re-election bid now, do we conclude he would not be supported by those same Christians that put him office, and that they would nevertheless be supporting Trump to take the reins from Santorum after just one term??
It's important to know when the Christians are wrong about something, and it's too bad they aren't more forthcoming about the vicissitudes of their faith.
Those Christians involved in secular politics have let slip a major error, we deserve an honest appraisal, assessment and explanation from their side as to what went wrong, and how we can trust them now.
Was there ever any doubt that the true motive force behind the political religious right has always been those smart enough to see Christianity as the bullshit it always was, but unscrupulous enough to use all the fools stupid enough to not see the bullshit as tools for gaining themselves political power, and from political power availe themselves wealth, status and egotistical sense of accomplishment?
