...backs traditional marriage...

I didn't know that the definition of traditional marriage was the union of one man and one woman for as long as it takes until someone better comes along.

...and favors religious freedom.

Unless you're a Christian working as a county clerk or a Jewish activist protesting Muslim intolerance.

backs traditional marriage,

Then why did he use his pageant to attack Carrie Prejean for believing in traditional marriage.

Trump played a critical role in getting samesex marriage legalized

Anyone from any religious group can and should vote for whoever they want. You’re electing government representatives, not a preacher, reverend, or Pope.

The thing I did like when the Pope and Trump had their spat is he told the Pope that he would want a President Trump in office to help protect the Vatican.

Trump went on to say just what a valuable target the Vatican is to ISIS and that he would do everything possible to protect it from them if he were president.

Trump is clearly anything we want him to be. Pro-life, a conservative, a floor wax, a salad dressing, anything ... you name it.

From A Man For All Seasons:

Sir Thomas More: Listen, Meg, God made the angels to show Him splendor, as He made
animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But Man He made to serve Him
wittily, in the tangle of his mind. If He suffers us to come to such a case that there is no
escaping, then we may stand to our tackle as best we can, and, yes, Meg, then we can
clamor like champions, if we have the spittle for it.


What vote, in the tangle of our minds, in the tangle of this political season,
best aligns with the best good?

I won't characterize Trump as a moral paragon, but I will vote for him
because I believe he can bring the greatest good.

Well, he is clearly NOT a career politician and he IS a successful American citizen and a true outsider. He may be our last hope to at least start to reign in the 100 year progressive statist movement in America.

Indeed. Some are concerned only about words, others look to actions.

Trump can be anything he wants as long as he builds the wall and fights the jihadis.

Every other concern of yours is secondary. No one cares.

Including me.
