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 dont 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 dont 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 were actually living our Christian faith. The problem is we all say were living our Christian faith [and] were not living our Christian faith.
Beck additionally vowed he would challenge any religion or denomination he believes is ignoring its own guiding principles.
Ill take on the Jews, and Ill take on the Lutherans, and Ill take on the Catholics, and Ill take on the Mormons, he said. "Ill take them all on. Youre damn right. Where are you? Youre not living your principles.
Weve 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 didnt 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 partys presidential nomination.
A super PAC run by Liz Mair a former Bushie and McShamet crony. Plausible deniability
Nice try. Have yet to here Ted say how awful this type of campaign ad is
How nice for you
Lyin Cruz is not denying, may be its true.
That’s just ignorant and more than a little insulting that he feels he has any say in what Christians should or nor not support!
I don’t see how he could get one woman to sleep with him (more than once even) much less 6.
a) the recent Gawker verdict
b) the recollection of Gary Hart (Donna Rice), Jonathan Edwards (Rielle Hunter), and Tiger Woods (many)...as well as one of those supermarket tabloids scooping People Magazine on Tom Selleck's wedding back in the day.
No “real” Christian should support delusional Mormon Glenn Beck.
IMO
****Yup...I agree with Beck as well. I cant see how a Christian could support Trump.****
What do you mean by support Trump? Does voting for him count?
If I vote for Trump, will Christians be targeted by the government for extra scrutiny? Maybe extra taxes taken out of our pay? Will he appoint a Supreme Court Justice that will be heavily biased against Christians?
If I vote for Cruz, will there be a marked difference?
After seeing Cruz in action these last two months I am so dissapointed I now do not have the truly Christian voice in this election that was proffered.
Cruz looks to me like he is desperately climbing that ladder, and that makes him almost a sure bet to be a backstabber to those who trust him to be in a Christians corner when it counts.
What would Beck know about being a Christian?
He treid to sell his program to Infowars.
The man is failing, like the dirty little bastard should.
I would say that God gives a discerning spirit to those who believe. I used to think Ted Cruz was IT but I have been steadily discerning that I could never vote for the guy.
It’s strange, but I think Cruz is the wolf in sheep’s clothing we’ve heard so much about.
Gives me the willies to think I was almost fooled by the imposter..
Where is the father, Rafael? Seriously. Anointing his son at every opportunity.
How dependent is Cruz on his dad anyway?
“Yup...I agree with Beck as well. I cant see how a Christian could support Trump.”
Then you admit that you’re as deranged and blasphemous as Beck?
How do you know that Cruz is Christian? Guess what, you don’t.
Beck has lost his mind. Cruz will rue the day he allowed Glenn in his orbit.
I’ve been thanking God that Cruz is THAT stupid, and I just hope and pray that the people of God, see it for what it is.
keep it up Beck...we love you and the work you’re doing to destroy Lyin’ Ted!!
Beck’s radio program has become unlistenable- to. Dear Glen, we know your choice of candidate. We get that. We don’t need three hour harangues every day!
And Rush has taken up the bogus mantle that Cruz is the only “principled conservative” and is lamenting why he’s not resonating with conservative voters. Rush hasn’t taken it as far as Beck, but you just know he’s aching to take Trump supporters to the wood shed to get our minds right.
Trump is causing all elements of the establishment to go apoplectic.
