Words of "criticism" send Trump-loving evangelical preachers scurrying for the exits



Christian broadcaster David Brody told Fox News on Thursday that many of the pro-Trump evangelicals felt ambushed at the meeting by attendees who said they were fed up being associated with Trump’s divisive brand of politics.

“It was one-sided venting here is what happened,” he said. “It was a two-day conference, the first side became, basically, this anti-Donald Trump free-for-all that and got so many folks ticked off… people walked out.”

“It was supposed to be a meeting about evangelism and faith,” Christian broadcaster Jenna Browder told Fox. “They really didn’t realize what they were getting into.”

Later in the segment, Brody suggested that these particular evangelical leaders might simply be jealous because they don’t get the kind of access to the White House that prominent Trump supporters get.

Just like a majority of entitled teens (the jocks and scion of the country club/born-again set) who think they can pull one over on their teachers because, well, they're all that and a bag of chips.

If they're having a pissy about criticism of their faith and choices now, wait until they meet their maker.

Claiming to speak for or to lead in the name of a/the Creator is the ultimate blasphemy.

Their flocks are simply stupid, doltish sheep who revel in hate, jealously, and racism.

leading one of the 500 or so rebel factions fighting in Syria and rounding up some bad guys on Mars!

Since evangelicals say tRump is second only to Jebus, god decided he does not need help with all his winning.
