4. He never said he was a saint.  First, how many of you have ever claimed to be a saint?  (Like, seriously — anyone you’ve ever met?)  If I went out and robbed a bank, I would still be morally responsible.  “Hey, officer — I never said I was a saint!” isn’t going to fly.  

5.  We’re voting for President not Pastor.  I understand this argument.  Heck, I may have even written this argument back when we were encouraging evangelical Christians to support Mitt Romney back in 2006.  (Remember when all those evangelical leaders were in angst over Romney being a Mormon because he didn’t represent their values?  Ha!  Glad people like Mike Huckabee, James Dobson, Ralph Reed, Robert Jeffress found someone who did!)  Of course we wouldn’t want Donald Trump as our Sunday School, but we can expect a certain level of morality from our leaders — 

Hitting on married women? Condoning assault? Such vile degradations demean our wives and daughters and corrupt America’s face to the world.

6.  Sure, Donald has SAID bad things, but the Clintons DO bad things.

David writes about this on National Review: “It’s a comforting thought, I suppose, but it skips over a host of Trump’s own bad acts. Indeed, when it comes to my own reasons for opposing Trump, his petty corruption and crass exploitations are at least as important as his erratic, intemperate, and crude comments. In judging the magnitude of the latest Trump scandal, it’s important to remember that his words – as bad as they are – aren’t nearly as consequential as his actions. If his so-called ‘locker room talk’ bears any resemblance to the truth, he’s talking about potential sexual battery (not to mention a blunt attempt to seduce a married woman.) In other words, now Trump may be a criminal.”
