Vander Plaats, CEO of the Iowa-based Christian conservative group The Family Leader, told the Blaze’s Steve Deace this week that he’s never supported Trump, after the former president went on the attack.
“Iowa will rise up,” he continued. “This is not leadership our country needs.”
“Bob Vander Plaats, the former High School Accountant from Iowa, will do anything to win, something which he hasn’t done in many years,” Trump wrote over the weekend.
“He’s more known for scamming Candidates than he is for Victory, but now he’s going around using Disinformation from the Champions of that Art, the Democrats,” he added.

Come up with better insults. Evanglicals are Trump’s base.
Most Evanglicals will overwhelmingly support Trump. Haley will get the Evanglical Neo- Con vote. The primary is over. Evanglicals will likely vote 85 percent for Trump.
“So Iowa will back a loser that won’t be the nominee?”
No one but Trump can beat the Democrats. They are hell bent on throwing the country away to the Communists.
It is about the dumbest thing I have ever seen at this point in the game.
Sure, it will, just ask President Pat Robertson.
The Blaze is becoming unwatchable again. Im waiting for Beck to dunk his face in a bowl of Cheetos again.
WELL, AT LEAST WE KNOW HE’S A ‘TOP’ AND NOT A ‘BOTTOM’...........
I’m waiting for Beck to dunk his face in a bowl of Drano..............
What don’t you know about Trump, after 8 years in the media spot light, and under investigation by possibly thousands of people?
Likewise desantis, who has parroted a lot of Trump’s views, and desantis has also shown himself to
lies,
manipulates people,
has shown he willingly breaks rules and regulations,
and till recently, was the darling of the swamp GOPe rino uniparty
Just like the rest of the opponents of Donald Trump.
Most likely.
“Evanglicals are Trump’s base.”
We will see. You know I called this the other day.
For my Grandchildren’s sake I absolutely hope you are right and I am grossly wrong.
he better have both fingers crossed when he said this.
I’m Evangelical and I never heard of this guy.
Vander Plaats sounds like a real kook.
Trump refuses to accept a tough interview? I don’t know what you’ve been watching, but I’ve seen President Trump voluntarily put himself in front of the fake news more than any other president. He has offered himself up to the equivalent of a rectal exam by these jackals for 5 years....he has served as president for 4 years. Everyone has seen what he will do. He’s telling people what his plans are via many videos on Truth Social. He doesn’t need to debate. He’s got his record, and he is telling everyone his plans. He’s earned his position.
Is an Evangelical just another word for a Christian? Is there something more to it? Serious question....what’s an “Evangelical?”
So they would rather have a party that salivates at killing as many unborn babies as they possibly can? I am confused.
I am familiar with BVdP going back a ways, and for Iowa he is a zero-sum “evangelical/conservative.”
I'm sure there are Evangelicals who do not support Trump. There are also Evangelicals who are never Trumpers. The same can be said of some FReepers on this forum.
Assuming that Trump wins the republican primary, how many Evangelicals will sit out the primary or vote democrat because of their disdain for Trump? That is the question. I would hope not many.
The enemy of good is perfect! If you're looking for the perfect candidate, you will be looking for a long time.
" how many Evangelicals will sit out the primary..." should read, "how many Evangelicals will sit out the general..."
