Washington Post asks Jerry Falwell Jr "Is there anything President Trump could do that would endanger that support from you or other evangelical leaders?" The answer (as you may remember) was plain and simple: "No"
2) So, I gave the quote you aksed for. It is probably not going to worry you as much as a statement made by Tassman that was not anti Christian.

Originally posted by seer View PostBecause Charles it is much more nuanced than that. They say a man is know by his enemies, and Trump's enemies are largely leftists - so why jump on their bandwagon criticize him? Like I said in my OP the courts are my main concern and there Trump has kept his promises - fully. I'm certainly not going to join the late term abortion left that is trying to bring him down. Do I overlook things I shouldn't, yes but what is the alternative - the baby killing left?
If you have good reasons to support Trump on some areas why does that prevent you from being critical on what he does on other areas? Is there really any need for this to be such an "us and them" fight in which you need to overlook things? Did you not initially make the statement that "it is much more nuanced than that"?

Originally posted by seer View PostWhy should I pile on Sam? The left and others are doing that everyday, everywhere. Remember Trump was not my first chose, Walker was.

As far as I'm concerned the left is deeply wicked and as bad as Trump can be his policies align with mine.
