Glenn Beck on Thursday suggested that GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump is incompatible with Christians who take their faith seriously.
“No Christian, no real Christian – I don’t mean a judgmental Christian, I mean somebody who is living their faith – no real Christian says, ‘I want that guy, that guy is for me,’” he said during a broadcast of his radio show. "Nobody, nobody.”
Beck also argued America is moving away from its Christian underpinnings, causing myriad moral and social problems nationwide.
“I honestly don’t know what else to do,” he said. "We have got to be a people of principles. We are a Christian nation.
“Are we really?” Beck asked. "Then why are we in so much trouble? Why do we have the same kind of problems that non-Christian nations do with pornography and drugs and everything else?
“We should be setting an example if we’re actually living our Christian faith. The problem is we all say we’re living our Christian faith [and] we’re not living our Christian faith.”
Beck additionally vowed he would challenge any religion or denomination he believes is ignoring its own guiding principles.
“I’ll take on the Jews, and I’ll take on the Lutherans, and I’ll take on the Catholics, and I’ll take on the Mormons,” he said. "I’ll take them all on. You’re damn right. Where are you? You’re not living your principles.
“We’ve got to shore these things up,” added Beck, who backs Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and his GOP presidential campaign. "Somehow or the other, our side didn’t catch the memo.”
Beck has emerged as a vocal critic of Trump, arguing that the GOP front-runner does not represent conservative values.
Cruz, meanwhile, has repeatedly asserted he is the only Republican contender who can keep Trump from securing their party’s presidential nomination.
...said the Mormon.
...quoth Stabby the Clown.
Beck is beyond insane.
Who the hell does Beck think he is? I am sick of his big mouth.
No real Christain would go around acting like he speaks for God.
Cruz has seriously got to shut this guy up. He will really start hurting Cruz and probably help Trump. And I’m a Trump supporter.
Some here agree with Beck.
The same paper that nailed Gary Hart (Donna Rice) and Jonathan Edwards (Rielle Hunter)...
Beck is a Mormon not a Christian.
So, it’s a write-in campaign for Jesus?
Seriously?
AND just WHAT is a Christian? Is Mr Beck an authority of who is and who is not a Christian.
Vote Shaming
Beck has lost his mind. Cruz will rue the day he allowed Glenn in his orbit.
I anyone still watching this nutjob’s TV shows and radio shows?
What does Beck know about Christianity?
L
It looks like Ted the Alley Cat Cruz doesn’t live by conservative values either.
For Cruz’s good Beck he needs to go away, in a straight jacket and it ain’t gonna happen.
Go Trump Go!
Pretty funny that a Mormon is telling me what a real Christian should do
If Ted doesn’t tell Beck to stop and refuses to disavow Beck that tells me all I need to know
