Pastor Robert Jeffress says porn star allegations are ‘totally irrelevant’ when supporting president
The Blaze ^ | March 9, 2018 | Sarah Taylor

Posted on 03/09/2018 1:01:51 PM PST by TBP

Pastor Robert Jeffress defended Trump against a porn star’s claims that she romped with the president, calling the allegations “totally irrelevant” to those of faith who support Trump.

Michael Cohen, a lawyer for Trump, admitted in February that he paid Clifford $130,000, but didn’t say much more at the time.

As a result of Cohen’s admission, Clifford may be able to speak freely about the alleged affair, since the purported non-disclosure agreement may have been breached by Cohen’s remarks.

Clifford announced on Tuesday that she filed a civil suit against Trump in attempt to void the non-disclosure agreement.

Trump representatives have vehemently denied the affair, and Clifford herself has made the same denials in a written statement.

NBC News reported on Wednesday that Cohen has tried to silence Clifford with temporary restraining orders.

Liberals didn’t ‘give up’ on Teddy Kennedy after he murdered a woman he was boinking.
- - -
If you are referring to Mary Jo, please find the A&E Investigative Report on the incident. The preponderance of the evidence is she was a “good Catholic girl.” Teddy put the moves on Mary Jo, she kicked him out of the car, and then drove herself off the bridge and drowned. Teddy really didn’t know what happened to her until a aide found her the next morning.

How is this not a problem for a pastor?

Pffhaha.

Bill Clinton and his MoveOn.org group created specially to battle his rape allegations (note that Trump’s relationships are all consensual) told me that “IT DOESN’T MATTER.” So I’m going to go with that.

I'm fine with consensual sex and personal morality being private. But if it is then these preachers need to shut up about politics and go away.

Looking busy undermining Trump today I guess. But I agree with the preacher. I didn’t vote for high priest or leader of the congregation.
I voted for a no-nonsense alpha who will do the work a lot of pious church men won’t. Carter was religious, so was Bush. Both were freakin’ pathetic.

You don’t send a parson to do a gunfighters job.

What? If I understand you correctly, so if policies and laws affect things such as religious freedom, abortion, gay marriage, etc. that are important to the church, they should just go away because they don’t condemn someone for a sin?

That’s the cousin to the liberals’ screeds about if you weren’t in the military you have no right to speak out about our entering into military conflicts. That would pretty much omit 90% of the voters. In your case it would omit 99% of voters.

““How is this not a problem for a pastor? ”

1. Trump is POTUS and not priest, pastor or holy man
2. If it happened, it didn’t happen in the Oval Office
3. Trump is getting the right things done
4. Hillary was infinitely worse
5. Trump is rolling up human traffickers and pedeaphiles worldwide
6. Trump appointed a great, pro- life SC Justice

Do you need more???

For all we know, Trump is now paying this woman to come forward as a distraction.”

THIS........

I can’t help but notice that before the whore made her claims, I had never heard of her. Now her name is out there.
This was just a move for fame, sponsored by Alred, and a shot at billionaire lotto.

If she was paid 100k to shut up during the campaign, I couldn’t care less. That’s like me paying a quarter to the bum outside to beat it during my daughters wedding. Her 100k is gone and now she wants more...starting with what the TV networks are paying her.

I didn’t vote for a national daddy or preacher. I voted for a murder weapon against the deep state.
Sometimes rough work takes a rough man.

For a long time I’ve thought we needed an “up yours” New Yorker attitude with an America first bent for a president. As a Texan it pains me that Texas has given America an LBJ and a Bush.

They best part was when he told Juan Williams that if a semen stained blue dress wasn’t enough to make Juan give up on Bill Clinton, then there wasn’t much Stormy Davis could do to sway Pastor Jeffress from his support for President Trump.


Saw that. Ole Juan didn’t have a canned response from his DNC talking points script to counter that shot to the jaw, dropping ole Juan to the canvas for the 10 count....

This Stormy crap doesn’t work anymore. It works with RATs and #nevertrumpers who think they are the moral high road. I am fine with that as long as they don’t expect me to give my country to the NWO so that they can pretend they are somehow better than my President who works for me or myself.

Get lost ya damn hypocrites!

“You are obviously a wise person! :)”

Your comment was just so spot on. I have also said for years that the GOP just can not do what it has to do with the gentlemanly approach that it seems to so desperately want to embrace for the last 50 years. The left will always fight dirty.

Either religious morality matters in politics, or it doesn't. If these pastors want to call out sin, then call it out. But if pastors say "this immorality is important" and then say "this immorality is irrelevant" then they are hypocrites and the belief system they claim to represent is a sham.
