Wake up folks! You need a FIGHTER who knows HOW TO WIN...not just the “most conservative”.

Both Trump and Cruz can fight, though witgh different styles and different tools. Neither of them is a Romney nor a McCain.

what a stupid premise for an idiot article.

You don’t look to men for protection of your Christian values if you are a Christian.

But if you want protection from earthly enemies, I’ll take Trump’s protection against ISIS who will cut your throat over some namby-pampy politician who is worried about bathrooms.

Or not vote at all because the perfect candidate is not running. So throw the election to the dems that teach them.

Ok. I’ll play. What exactly about Trump’s comments regarding Planned Parenthood doing “terrific work”, criticizing Wendy Davis refusing to assign her name to homosexual marriage licenses, in violation of state law she swore to uphold, saying people should be able to use the bathroom they “feel” comfortable with, thinking there should be exceptions for defining life of an unborn child, saying you’ve never had the need for forgiveness from sin, are positions Christians should take as reasurring Trump will have your back?

Well Ted Cruz sure is nobody’s protector either.

Christians stand on their own two feet.

They know who their real protector is.

We can go 3rd party very quickly.

Staffed in all 50 states.

Ticked off base.

Be at the birth of a brand new conservative party?

HISTORIC.

What are we waiting for?

And just think of the chaos....

Jedi.

Bottom line.

Don’t be distracted by shiny objects or squirrels going into bathrooms.

Unless you want Hillary.

I think we are asking the wrong question.

The president of the USA, even if this could be a hypothetical Mother Teresa, shouldn’t be our godparent.

Christians can rightfully press for people to believe in a higher view than Caesar requires. This is how Mississippi ended up with almost no abortion clinics — not because anyone was able to ban them, but because the demand dwindled so in the face of faith that actually had some heart.

I would say that if Christians are solicitous for those who are born, all the more so they should be for those who are born again. The example furnished by their lives is going to be what once more brings the hearts and minds back among our midst, to regain the lost sensitivity (yes that is a bible reference), to once more enter a position where killing one’s unborn child would be unthinkable by sheer moral gravity. And I won’t even say just America. With a credible enough display, it could spill over into Canada, into Mexico, maybe even the rest of the world.

And did Jesus say to stomp the shit out of them?

Or out of Satan?

(No they are not the same.)

Maybe, that you are acting like a troll and why give Hillary any help? (Not saying it’s true, just that it’s the point.)

Thanks, this explains the motivation of some of those posters, who really hate Trump!:

Hillary announced she spent a million dollars on internet trolls. Leftists love personal attacks. The math isn't hard.

Well said! This is the sort of commentary we see every election, trying to get those excitable Christians all riled up about some candidate the Left is afraid of. It’s become laughable. The vast majority of us realize we’re electing a President, not a “Christian protector,” whatever that is.

Agree, but we adults need to help make aware the children just coming up and the children inhabiting adult bodies, of the many lies and deceptions all around.

I am so sick of the insults of your ilk suggesting as a Trump supporter, I am too stupid to walk and chew gum. I have probably been voting longer than you have been alive. I carefully weighed my decision to support Trump, as I always do, starting with Barry Goldwater! And, I have explained to your ilk on this forum and others exactly why. And there is no point going into it again, you won’t consider any other viewpoint but your own. You suffer from the arrogance of youth, you know nothing and think you know everything. Life will knock some sense into you, I hope.
