I have a question. Do you really think that to Make America Great Again, all that will be needed is a great deal maker? A business man? Will American’s be satisfied with wealth if her morality is still in the pits and God is not given the honor for actually blessing this land because of our faith? Do you think for a NY minute that that with our nation practicing child sacrifice and making money off the beating hearts of babies that God can bless the US in the way that we need to have joy and PEACE?

I guess we better go with Jethro Bush then.

Without Trump stirring the pot the GOPe wins again.

You're right. We need to go with Jethro.

The president has very limited ability to change moral failings, like Planned Parenthood. Congress can make some inroads, perhaps. Here’s the way I see it, although the more politically astute here might not.

If the president is an ideologue, the opposition on either side tend to set their feet in concrete. A negotiator president, not ideologically driven, can work to offer cover to congresspersons who might not otherwise vote, for instance, against immorality.

This is vaguely how Reagan and Tip O’Neill worked in a happier and less polarized time. The polarization of today requires someone who will not be cowed by false accusations and can, again, offer cover to the more timid in the face of that kind of demagoguery.

No, for all those things we need a Christian president.

Jimmy Carter comes to mind.
