Where does Trump stand on the Kentucky clerk who refuses to marry gays?

[Little Ray]

Because there is no one worth supporting among the GOP-E candidates like Kaisich, Christie, and Jeb?

[Genoa]

He is soft on same-sex “marriage” and a latecomer on abortion. I want more detail about Israel and the Middle East too. The best stance about Trump for a conscientious Christian at this point is “wait and see.” No bandwagon for me.

[Fhios]

I trust the recently converted more than the more established.

Not this one. I love that he’s poking a stick into the anthill, but somebody who says he’s never felt the need to ask God’s forgiveness is not somebody I could ever support. That’s just me.

Q: Who are the evangelicals supporting Trump?
A: Everyone in our house right now and many of our church friends.

I voted for Romney and he’s deeply entrenched in a cult. I’m more comfortable with a Presbyterian.

“A scathing op-ed in The New York Times on Trump and his Christian support...” That op-ed was by Frank Bruni. He also wrote: “Let me get this straight. If I want the admiration and blessings of the most flamboyant, judgmental Christians in America, I should marry three times, do a queasy-making amount of sexual boasting, verbally degrade women, talk trash about pretty much everyone else while I'm at it, encourage gamblers to hemorrhage their savings in casinos bearing my name and crow incessantly about how much money I've amassed? “He personifies greed, embodies pride, radiates lust. Wrath is covered by his anti-immigrant, anti-”losers” rants, and if we interpret gluttony to include big buildings and not just Big Macs, he's a glutton through and through. That leaves envy and sloth. I'm betting that he harbors plenty of the former, though I'll concede that he exhibits none of the latter.” Of course this is an unbeliever taking it upon himself to judge the Church, when he doesn't have the mind of Christ. He's certainly not interested in advising Christians in order to benefit the cause of Christ. And when people pick candidates, it's not so much that they're voting or supporting the candidate, but that they're voting for or supporting themselves. Bible-believing Christians vote Republican, including for Bush, McCain and Romney, in support of our beliefs, which they claim they will work to uphold. It is troubling, though, that Trump is someone who says he has never seen a reason to ask God's forgiveness for anything. The fact that he is in the place he appears to be right now to defend Christian values in America seems possibly like a judgment from God.
