I’m not “swearing off” Trump, and you would know that if you actually wanted to read what I am saying.
I have never supported Trump in the primaries and have always stated that I would vote for him in the general election were he the nominee. I stand by that. Trump is far preferred to anyone the Democrats would put up, but he isn’t my favorite in the Republican race.
So don’t start with a false premise that I am “swearing off” Trump.
Carter was not endorsing Trump, he was asked if he had the choice between Trump and Cruz, who he would prefer in the White House. He said Trump for the reason that Trump had proven himself malleable in the past, while Cruz had not.
That should worry you a little bit. It should worry you that your choice of candidate is seen, even by his opponents, as someone who changes views when it suits him.
The fact that you have such blind faith in Trump worries me.
I believe both Doughboy and I have “sighted faith” and we would both change if Cruz uncorked something that actually did look significantly more godly. Which could always happen.
We’re projecting at this point to the probable results based on the way we commonly see the world go, including, unfortunately, the “Christian” world. If a Christian steps into the limelight being an ass, something is probably getting at him which traditionally has not given up easily (as Christ might have put it, it needs prayer and fasting).
