Let’s think back. Some of us expressed reservations about Trump because he had no track record as a conservative. I was slammed here, and told this election was about over throwing “The Establishment” and not about ideology.

OK - I’ve warmed to Trump and voted for him. But let’s not be surprised if Trump surprises us with non conservative ideas and policies.

I would not attend a church like this, as there are plenty of Christian churches that stick with the Bible, and stay out of politics.

Do the Judge’s pastors support his nomination?

Perhaps you misunderstood. I am not blaming Trump, I just think Trump miscalculated this man.

Many conservatives lauded the pick of this man. However, like you said his church does not seem to be the kind of church a conservative would, or even should, embrace. So I am not questioning Trump, but rather his pick after learning more about him. I honestly do not believe he is the right man for the job.

As I also said, replacing U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, is a very hard task because they do not make many like him anymore, if they ever did in the first place. To me he stands out as one of the best this country has ever seen. A true gem. So Trump has a very hard job with this pick to be sure. But I think he needs to go back to the drawing board, as this man may not be the person he was really looking for after all.

BTW, we are only 4 days away from the anniversary of his death. A sad day indeed.
