Pastor Robert Jeffress is saying in the name of Baptists & Evangelicals that it doesn't matter what Trump does sexually and if he raped someone as long as his policies are "great" and he is a "great" man.
The other guy, Juan Williams, a layman when it comes to Bible doesn't agree that much, but what does he know since he wasn't called personally by god to interpret the Bible to the people.
What a total misrepresentation of what the pastor said. He start off by saying they still believe in the no sex commandment. but we also believe in forgiveness, upon repentance.
did you miss that part or simply not understand it?
I guess I missed the part where Trump even admitted to wrongdoing, let alone expressed genuine remorse and contrition. What isn't this pastor willing to overlook in Trump's case, so long as it's between Trump and 'his god' -- i.e. the being he pretends to believe in and worship in order to secure Evangelical political support?
He's not one of them, and they know it. Trump's "Christianity" is all just a pleasant fiction based on mutual political need. He needs their votes; they need a pliable president who will rubber stamp their legislative wish list. It's not really Evangelical hypocrisy. It's Evangelical cynicism.
