Rand Paul had the right approach when he pushed back on the gotcha abortion question. Go ask [fill in the blank with some liberal] what he/she thinks about making a married couple supporting their 4 children with their bakery having to pay six figures to two women for not baking them a wedding cake. Is that okay?
Exactly! These are not legitimate questions, they are traps designed to create a firestorm of negative publicity. Candidates should refuse to answer them and ask the interviewer what his purpose is in asking it? If only our politicians were as wise as Jesus when He was asked about whether one should pay taxes. Turn the question around on the person asking. Let him stew over something.
If I were a asked about homosexual issues, I would say I am a Christian and invite the interviewer to read the Bible. If he asked if I thought homosexuals (or others) are going to hell, I would tell them that’s not my department. Only God knows a person’s heart.
