The Rev. Jesse Jackson told fellow clergy this week that President Donald Trump “would not qualify to get into Jesus’ kingdom.”
Jackson spoke Monday at the National Action Network’s “Ministers March for Justice.” During his speech, he equated the Electoral College with vestiges of racism and demanded an end to the system.
In his speech to the ministers, Jackson, who also attacked Trump’s comments following last month’s violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, castigated Trump’s immigration policy.
“Trump says you must be able to speak the language English, qualified and have a job skill. Jesus would not qualify to come in Trump’s country. He would not qualify to get into Jesus’ kingdom,” Jackson said.
Jackson then referenced the New Testament book of Matthew.
“I was hungry you fed me, naked you clothed me, captive and you set me free,” Jackson said.
Many on Twitter were inflamed by Jackson’s remarks.
Jackson also spoke about the fight against Confederate statues and racism.
“We stand against the relics of a war long since the Klan ended. The Confederate flag represents some evil, represents secession and slavery and sedition and segregation. The Confederate flag must come down. The statues must come down. Electoral College must come down. We want a one person, one vote democracy,” he said.

I think that Jesse needs to worry a lot about his own soul than that of President Trump.
Why isn’t this racist extortionist in prison ? Is there no justice ?
