Franklin Graham says he won’t endorse Trump in GOP primary race
The Hill ^ | 01-23-2023 | LAUREN SFORZA

Posted on 01/23/2023 1:00:32 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Evangelical pastor Franklin Graham, a longtime supporter of former President Trump, says he will not endorse Trump — or any candidate — in the 2024 GOP presidential primary.

“I’m going to stay out of it until after the primaries have finished,” Graham told CBS News on Friday at the March for Life rally in Washington, D.C.

Graham also told CBS News that it was an “easy decision” not to endorse someone during the 2024 primaries.

CBS noted Graham doesn’t generally endorse primary candidates, but his remarks come as tensions have been rising between evangelical groups and Trump in the months after he announced his third bid for president. Trump said in an interview earlier this week that evangelical leaders are showing “signs of disloyalty” because they have yet to endorse his 2024 campaign.

See -— YOU caught it.

But the plan will work, ‘cuz even 2/3 of the “thinking conservatives” here on this site will ONLY read the headline, then draw down, and fire.

The Hill done sent Franklin up $#!+ Sreek without a paddle.

Trump won’t need Franklin Graham’s endorsement..

Trump just needs to remind all the Christians that Biden stole an election and the country wouldn’t be the hell it is today if Trump was in office..

Not very Christian of Biden..

What’s with the “disloyalty” tag? Loyalty lies with the US Constitution not any man

Franklin Graham had a big book-signing affair for Pence and his book “So Help Me God”. Graham is sitting on the fence, and seems to have no discernment at all. Judas Pence is such a phony, smarmy, unctuous, lying traitor....but he seems to have a number of Christians fooled. At least Graham is not endorsing Judas Pence.

Bom ponto. É por isso que este país precisa da primeira emenda para continuar livre.

“CBS noted Graham doesn’t generally endorse primary candidates”

This is what you call a non story.

Evangelicals aren’t happy with President Trump because he’s a fighter and Evangelicals don’t like fighters. They are “go along to get along” and are perfectly content with the left taking over the US.

I’m not accusing all Evangelicals, but too many are untrustworthy and hopelessly naive when it comes to political issues.

Thanks so much for sharing your excellent insight which explains Evangelicals’ attitude perfectly.

Wish everyone would appreciate how blessed we are to have a brave fearless fighter like PDJT ready and willing to suffer the slings and arrows to work for all of us!!

Graham is as good as his father.

I was already mad at Franklin Graham. He was telling everybody to get the VAX.

You’re thinking of the president of liberty University. The ex-president I mean, not Franklin Graham. Franklin Graham did tell people Jesus would want you to take the vaccination though.

We have to remember that Jeffres works for Fox News and Fox News has decided that they do not want Trump. If Jeffrey’s endorsed Trump, he would no longer be an employee of Fox News. I’m very disappointed in these people, but then there was something about Jeffrey’s that I heard earlier that made me doubt him anyway. Might’ve been something he said about the vaccination but I’m not sure.

“Christianity’s greatest hero” ought to be a CHRISTIAN first, wouldn’t you think?

I’m not the one saying it was bashing; just said it’s not good for good men to do nothing. In the end Graham will know the difference as he did before. The Dems had a strategy to split the evangelicals and other Protestants away from Trump (including the women paid to lie that they had affairs plus the FBI agreeing to promote the Hillary funded pack of lies about Moscow prostitutes and collusion. They partly succeeded.

But the good are on one side and the evil are on the other no matter which GOP candidate we’ll have on the ballot.

I got it wrong. Franklin Graham said Jesus would have taken the shot. What kind of biblical grounding is that?
