Byron York: Will There Be a GOP Stampede from Trump [Evangelical Leaders Standing by Trump]
Washington Examiner ^ | 10 Oct 2016 | Byron York

Posted on 10/08/2016 3:47:48 PM PDT by Meet the New Boss

(snip)

As the defections were building Saturday morning, evangelical leader Gary Bauer sent a mass email headlined, "Gary Bauer Says Values Voters Continue to Support Trump-Pence Ticket." "The ten-year old tape of a private conversation in which Donald Trump uses grossly inappropriate language does not change the reality of the choice facing this country," Bauer wrote.

Franklin Graham, who has not officially endorsed Trump, wrote a Facebook post that seemed to suggest evangelical voters should stick with the Republican nominee. "The crude comments made by Donald J. Trump more than 11 years ago cannot be defended," Graham wrote. "But the godless progressive agenda of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton likewise cannot be defended…The most important issue of this election is the Supreme Court. That impacts everything. There's no question, Trump and Clinton scandals might be news for the moment, but who they appoint to the Supreme Court will remake the fabric of our society for our children and our grandchildren, for generations to come." The message was clear: Stick with Trump.

because we are forgiven by a God who cares we are prone to offer forgiveness

Not just prone... we're required to offer forgiveness, as Christ forgave us. Those without Christ struggle with that.

Sir Winston was a Man for All Seasons, to be sure. He was exactly what his Country needed at the time.

If this is the worse Hellary can dig up on Trump, he’s a saint.

True; but it something at least some of us (me) struggle with. Difficult part of the Lord’s prayer for me.

God’s grace is good.

Oh, I didn’t say it was easy. It’s the most difficult thing we’re called to do and I regret to say I’m not as successful as I would like to be.

I doubt that, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there are a few “faithless” electors.

This could be a good excuse for some of the elector candidates in California to resign and resolve the problem of having 108 elector candidates for 55 slots.

(Trump got cross-endorsed by the AIP, but there are only 2 common electors. The SOS lists him on the ballot only once, so every Trump vote is a vote for 108 elector candidates.)

Not sure I understand. What does post #4 have to do with McCain?

Oops, sorry, I thought I was answering a different thread, with that other response.

Yes, I know McCain has declared he is not voting for Trump now as well. All the rats are jumping ship, because they do not care about this country. Only about their power. The problem was not that the opponent was not a good one, it's just that he is so entrenched that getting hi unseated is not an easy task.

How many men returning home for a night out with the wife get an earful of how he acted, and spoke. It’s life. We live. We learn. We elect Trump.

See my follow up post, I was in the wrong thread and thinking I was responding to that poster. Your post was directly above their post in my ping list and I clicked on the wrong one.

I suspected that might have been it.

Sometimes these threads and posts run together.

It’ll be Trump by 10 points.

last week it was Trumnps taxes.

This week its a locker room conversation from ten years ago.

Next week it will ba a video of Trump surfing in crotchless panties?

Who gives a pluck?

I want a president who will secure our borders, rebuild the military, who will support and defend the Constitution.

I am NOT ever going to get into bed with the Donald. If he talked trash ten years ago I could care less.I am not marrying the man,. I am voting for him.

And as far as the eGOP is concerned? They see their demise in the populist Donald movement, and they are grasping at straws. What a laugh they are. If Pence won’t run with Donald , try Guliani or Palin.Get Pence out , give him his walking papers.

I usually respond from my ping list. If I had been in the thread it wouldn't have happened. I haven't done it often, but it has happened before.

I have even had people respond to me when they thought they were responding to someone else in another thread. It does make you go, what???

Doesn't all this bogus "outraged virtue" routine just make you want to puke???

What I want to know is how many of the hypocritical Democrats and RINO creeps currently piling on Trump are somehow involved with the Clinton Foundation?

Any WikiLeak e-mails with THEIR names on them???

Inquiring minds want to know.
