Graham nails it.

It’s about the Supreme Court. Personally, I think Trump is innocent of charges, but beyond that we get to choose between the blood guilt of abortion, the loss of self-protection rights, and Clinton’s great desire to start a war.

Righto, I’m an issues voter and I agree with Trump on the issues. What Trump did 10 years ago is what Trump did 10 years ago.

[A lot of people are slamming evangelicals for supposedly giving Donald J. Trump a pass.]

Calling all EVANGELICALS and CATHOLICS! Stand together! The differences between DONALD TRUMP and HILLARY CLINTON are as clear as day. We’re dealing with:

GOOD vs EVIL.
FREEDOM vs SLAVERY.
RICHES vs POVERTY.
MORALITY vs PERVERSION.
GOD vs NO GOD.

DONALD TRUMP/MIKE PENCE 2016

I think we also need to make the point that we aren’t simply voting for POTUS, we are voting for a team. The various cabinet secretaries possess enormous authority, too. I get all the arguments about Trump’s immorality, but would my fellow Christians rather have men like Ben Carson and Mike Huckabee in the cabinet or the anti-American leftist cretins Hillary would appoint?

On November 8th, defeat the DREEGs!

Democrat-Republican Elite Establishment Globalists.

The Obamas, Clintons and Bushes are all high-ranking DREEGs. Paul Ryan is a DREEG lackey. Etc.

A Christian Pastor’s Analysis of the U.S. Election Drama

By: Dr. James Dobson

Is Trump good for America? I mentioned Sunday that I would speak on this next week. Unfortunately, I found that I was shoehorning this topic into my planned message. To properly present what I want to speak on Sunday, I may have to leave the Donald out of it! But let me take a minute for those that wonder and give some of my thoughts.

When I first heard that Trump (DT) was entering the race last year, I told my wife that perhaps it was a good thing for the party and America. I knew that he was not a “saint,” but I thought that he would be like a bull in a china shop. He is a disrupt-er and I believe America could use a fresh thinker especially in the political arena. I didn’t think he would get the nomination, but that he would shake up politics as usual. I was correct on the shaking up!

Lance Wallnau likens him to a biblical Cyrus. Someone who is dynamically used of God even though not perceived by many as a God follower. God has used many people in history that I would probably not like or agree with. I’m not sure I would have liked all the disciples, or David, or Moses. Somehow, God did not seem compelled to consult with me on His choices!

I have always admired Winston Churchill. He is seen as one of the greatest national leaders in the 20th century. Last year, I had the privilege of going through the War Museum in London. Winston is a key feature. His life is controversial. He was not always celebrated as a great leader. He was a bombastic, cigar smoking, at times crude, even misogynistic leader. It is alleged that he told off color stories to his children before bedtime! A woman once told him he was disgustingly drunk. His response was “My dear, you are disgustingly ugly, but tomorrow I shall be sober and you will still be ugly!”

There are many websites that discuss the outlandish comments and activities of this great world leader. But, he had exactly what was needed to stop Hitler at the Channel, to rouse a nation to never give up and to partner with America to find final victory in Europe. You probably wouldn’t want him as your pastor, maybe not even your father, but he was the right leader for that moment in England’s history. Such a brazen man that would go up to the roof of his quarters in central London and smoke cigars as Hitler’s air force bombed all around him. I’m not sure I would have voted for him.... but he was the right man!

I think it would be awesome to have a righteous leader, one that understood the intricacies of the economy, health care, defense, immigration, with great sensitivity to religious institutions, a heart for the poor, a vision for the future. If that leader was a praying person, formidable in the word of God and loved the local church, I would rejoice! I do not think that is the choice we will have in November.

Instead....we will look for someone who is imperfect, yet will fit the times we are living in. Particularly, that ‘whoever’ we vote for, will be someone who might possibly have the opportunity to appoint up to three Supreme Court justices. That could radically shape our culture in America for the next 30 years. The America of our grandchildren could be very different....and that may not be good. We cannot stand on the sidelines. A non-vote is a passive vote for a direction we may very well regret.

So...is Donald Trump good for America? I honestly believe that he has been already. He has shaken the political system. Do his comments offend me? At times! Do I agree with all he says? Not at all! But could he be a “Cyrus” being raised up by God to preserve America? Nobody liked Gen. Patton, but he sure WAS an instrument of the United States for the right things.

This I know. I will vote for the best chance for America. I will pray for our leaders as I have already. In the end - God will continue to be my source and my hope. I do believe that God has had a hand in America’s history. I hope and pray that He will also have a saving hand in America’s future.

I shudder when I think of the caliber of HILLARY’S APPOINTEES.

GOD help us.

There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.

This should keep us up at night.

If Hillary were to win, she would appoint the Scalia replacement.

Scalia’s replacement would likely sit on the Supreme Court until 2042.

Hillary will appoint a replacement for Ginsburg and that person will sit not the Court until maybe 2048.

Hillary will appoint the Kennedy successor and that judge could sit on the Court until 2050.

The Breyer replacement would also sit on the Court until the middle of the 21st century.

Meanwhile, by the end of a Hillary first term in office, Justice Thomas will be 72 years old.

Catholic Ping!

This is getting interesting.

Two archbishops speaking out and now Graham.

May the number of religious leaders increase in their denunciation of Hillary and endorsement of Trump!!

We must stand together!!

Who in their right mind would vote for someone who has already indicated they are anxiously looking forward to exorcising the 2nd Amendment via Executive Order and appointing far left leaning judges to the Supreme Court? That’s a life time appointment and will affect our country for at least the next 40 years.

Glad I’m old.

Very significant that Franklin Graham has publicly stated the urgency of voting Never-Hillary. As a Catholic, I have had conversations with other Catholic friends since the WikiLeaks dump of Clinton’s team’s true opinions of us and Evangelicals. Their disgusting intents hit home hard and will tilt the balance if the hierarchy continues to speak about it. So far, some have! Cavuto just had a Catholic priest on and blasted the democrats intents as demonic, in need of exorcism.

I am not foolish enough to think this will get any MSM airplay but it is very encouraging leaders like Graham and Archbishop Chaput are blasting a strong Never-Hillary message. Just as effective as Pro-Trump, the message and its impact is getting out!

It’s far deeper than that.

This election is a referendum on the Rule of Law.

Believe NOTHING the liberal media feeds you. NOTHING. They are on a propaganda WAR footing against every decent law-abiding Constitutional loving person. ANYONE who believes their propaganda, frets about it, wets their pants about it, is not fit for the war they have pronounced on our communities to destroy and reshape them into globalist socialist cesspools. BUCK UP!!

Trump’s lewd language doesn’t even compare to the debauched youth of one history’s greatest Christian thinkers.

Augustine of Hippo. He became a Catholic saint and one of the Doctors Of The Church.

Christians need to consider context in weighing one’s sins. Forgiveness is always possible for who repent and lead the life God expects of them.

I am pleased that Christian leaders are seeing through the smear campaign to the real issues. Ben Carson said he would be glad to see a return to teaching Judeo-Christian values, but let's do that later because right now the train is about to go off the cliff.

I agree with this. Let's save the train first. Then we can work out the values. (Watch how quickly Democrats will forget about Biblical values.)

Polls were reporting that evangelical support was lagging after the media began the Trump smear campaign.

Graham, recognized and respected by millions of evangelicals, has come out in support of Trump.

It is important to win back those voters and to show Graham’s support.

Graham did not disappoint! Men should be men and not pansy followers of the media circus... those men who capitulated are women dominated and don’t even know they have a mind of their own.

Men who ...... Go with the flow.. wherever the wind blows.. where the crowd is... cover their backsides.... see which is the right tent to be in... all fake.. and afraid to stand on the right side.. the side they’ll get hit on, for they cannot stand on their own.

Yeah, I have a thing about feminized men... they are not appealing.. nor can they stand alone and not waver. Look at all of them who have “standing with Trump” and when the least bit of angst news is reported by the lying left media... don’t question it.. just “withdraw my support from Trump” because the wind shifted..
Come on... do what is right for a once in your life!!!!
