I’m not, but have a good friend who would be considered an “evangelical”, and she loves Trump. She says people like Trump are put in certain times and places by God to lead the people out of darkness and trouble. I’d never thought of it before, but TR is a good example of such a man, and I think Reagan was too. We have certainly seen examples of Presidents and other leaders who take their followers into darkness and despair, so it is logical that the opposite also happens, part of the age-old battle.

Is that belief part of the Christian teaching? As I understand that religion, Jesus is supposed to do the leading.

Perhaps God is moving things His way to begin vetting out Judgement on an Unholy World? This election may move us closer to that end

Ephesians 1:11
Job 42:2
Daniel 4:35
Psalm 33:11
Psalm 115:3

Tell that to Cruz and his dad. But maybe your Trump blindness overlooked the obvious in the quote.

That's what she believes. Who are you to say?

This Evangelical thing is really getting old.

The Evangelicals were blamed for Republican losses by not showing up to vote. Now you have an imbecile that believes all he has to do is wrap himself in the armor of Christ to get the Evangelicals to the polls....Guess what? Evangelicals want to make America great again too.

The GOP used them as their excuse for losing with incompetent candidates. When the reality is a lot of people who aren't religious or live and breathe abortion, abortion, abortion stayed home. They blamed Evangelicals because they want YOU to blame evangelicals.

It's the same BS you hear about "if you don't support Cruz, the only true constitutional conservative you'll be responsible for the socialists Sanders/Hillary/Supreme Court".
