Franklin Graham: Donald Trump...Shaking Up Both Parties - And It's Not a Bad Thing
Gospel Herald ^ | 3/21/16 | Leah Marieann Klett

....Trump is a "political phenomenon" who is effectively shaking up both the Republican and Democratic parties - and it's not necessarily a bad thing, according to the Rev. Franklin Graham.

...."Do you believe protesters are blocking the road to his rally to stop people from getting there today? There are those who passionately support him and others who are adamantly against him. He's a political phenomenon like our country hasn't seen before. I don't think America has ever had a presidential candidate opposed by both establishments, Republican and Democratic, as well as the sitting president."

That is what makes Trump a hero in most conservatives eyes...principled ones anyway.

I’ll take Rev. Franklin Graham’s pronouncements over those of far lesser religious leaders getting the vapors over Trump not being as refined as he should be.

You must mean “unprincipled ones” or maybe you really didn’t mean conservatives. Unlike you, I don’t make people running for president a “hero”.

The Bernster isn’t doing too bad “shaking things up” either. Between “Bernie” and the FBI, I’ll bet Clinton is going though pallets of Depends.

trump’s not shaking up parties. The democrats are like 90% united against him and the republicans are roughly 60% united against him. All Trump is doing is conducting a clown show.

Nope, just not deluded by Lyin Ted...I didn’t make Trump a hero...Trump did...his actions make him a hero. Cruz’s actions make one either disgusted or deluded...I can see which one you are...

Franklin Graham is right. Him and Dr. Robert Jeffress both see the same things in Trump. i have so much respect for both men.

Seems like all the people who are against Trump are the same ones who have a financial interest in keeping the multi-trillion dollar gravy train of corruption running.

For certain, none of the anti-Trump vocalists can explain (without flat-out lying) why they think fair-trade policies are bad for US citizens, why jobs here for US citizens are bad policy for US citizens, or why controlling the flows of people across our borders is bad for US citizens.

They twist themselves into pretzels trying to support a Canadian usurper in his quest to dismantle the US Constitution, in favor of a North American Union where US citizenship will be meaningless, and we will all subject to the whims of globalist liars, cheats, thieves, and frauds -- just like Ted Cruz.

[All Trump is doing is conducting a clown show.]

RICH VERA recently was on the SID ROTH SHOW (It’s Supernatural) and shared that the LORD had given him a Word of Knowledge about DONALD TRUMP.

He didn’t divulge anything about the campaign, but apparently The Donald has a Divine assignment. We need to pray for him. Here is the text of the show regarding TRUMP.

Transcript:
SID:
Tell me about Donald Trump.
RICH:
Donald Trump. Oh my goodness. You know, the Lord gave me a vision. I’m not political,I’m not for either party.
SID:
I understand.
RICH:
But the Spirit of the Lord told me that there was a prayer, there was something he had as a younger man with the Lord that the Lord marked his life and separated him, and because of that is the prosperity that [he]has experienced, come on his life, in spite of what people believe of his belief systems. But this is a man who is going to be used of God to bring to light a lot of dirt. For many years to come you’re going to hear him as a man who started in the forefront and in the media to expose the secrets of darkness in society and in government here in America.

Vera also had a Word concerning President Obama.

I spent 20 years of my life as a banker in the Washington, DC area. Consequently, many of my clients were politicians, congressional and White House staffers, lobbyists and media types (all members of the establishment). My observation is that the establishment places great value on promoting grossly immoral activity by government, while maintaining a facade of “genteel decency” (think Harry Reid). While maintaining an image of “decency” in public. many of these people were foul and profane in their private lives (think about Jesus’ description of Pharisees and scribes as “whitewashed sepulchers”.) Part of the reason that I can develop some level of comfort with Trump is a reasonable amount of evidence that he is better in private than he is in public. With all the other candidates (professional politicians to a man), there is every reason to suspect that they are much worse in private than they are in public. Given a choice, I would rather have a president with a faulty image, but good character in private if the alternative is a more “polished” candidate who in private will sell the country down the river - in a “classy” way.

"Trump is a "political phenomenon"....according to the Rev. Franklin Graham."

Not an endorsement, merely an observation.
The same could apply to Huey Long, LBJ, and Lester Maddox....

Very powerful words, thank you!
