Pastor Says If Jesus Supported 'Demon Possessed Traitor,' Evangelicals Can Support Trump
| Quote: | Prominent Pro-Trump evangelicals have sounded off on the Stormy Daniels controversy in recent days, with many vowing to continue supporting the president despite an alleged affair with the adult film star.
Tennessee pastor Greg Locke, who made headlines last year for a viral rant against gay people, shared his rationalization for supporting the blustery business mogul with his 30,000 followers and 1.5 million Facebook followers.
"People are like 'If you support Trump you can’t be a Christian,'" Locke tweeted.
"Do y’all listen when you talk? Jesus hired a demon possessed traitor to handle his money for 3 years. He can use the President if He so desires. Take a seat people." |

This Week in God, 5.12.18

| Quote: | First up from the God Machine this week is a prominent religious leader who appears to have competing moral standards for presidents, depending on which party they belong to.
The Rev. Franklin Graham, a prominent Donald Trump supporter, told the Associated Press this week that he’s aware of the scandals surrounding the president, including the Stormy Daniels story, but he’s unconcerned.
“…I don’t have concern, in a sense, because these things happened many years ago – and there’s such bigger problems in front of us as a nation that we need to be dealing with than other things in his life a long time ago. I think some of these things – that’s for him and his wife to deal with. I think when the country went after President Clinton, the Republicans, that was a great mistake that should never have happened. And I think this thing with Stormy Daniels and so forth is nobody’s business. And we’ve got other business at hand that we need to deal with.”
The references to the Clinton impeachment scandal was of particular interest, because Graham’s current belief that the campaign to tear him down “was a great mistake that should never have happened” appears to be a recent revelation.
In fact, in August 1998, Graham wrote an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal in which he presented a very different message. Rather than dismissing the personal allegations as something “for him and his wife to deal with,” Graham argued at the time that allegations such as these were very much the public’s business. “[T]he God of the Bible says that what one does in private does matter,” he wrote.
Graham added, in reference to the then-Democratic president, “If he will lie to or mislead his wife and daughter, those with whom he is most intimate, what will prevent him from doing the same to the American public?”
And yet, here we are, nearly 20 years later, watching Graham’s ally in the Oval Office confront a sex scandal, and wouldn’t you know it, he appears to have had a change of heart. Now, evidently, the “thing with Stormy Daniels and so forth is nobody’s business.” |
