Evangelicals Shocked by Trump's Outburst on Netanyahu

Evangelicals Shocked by Trump’s Outburst on Netanyahu

"SNIP......

“One of former president Donald Trump’s major evangelical backers on Monday condemned recently reported attacks by Trump on former Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and warned that he risked alienating his Christian base by distancing himself from the Israeli leader,” the Washington Post reports.

Said Mike Evans, in a letter to Trump: “Please, I beg of you, don‘t put us in the position to choose between you and Bible land. There is no possibility you can win again if Bible-believing evangelicals see you as the ‘F–k Netanyahu’ president who considers Abbas a father-like figure and blames the State of Israel, and not the Palestinians, for not making peace.”

......SNIP"

Hey, give him enough time, Trump will alienate every person on the planet. He is very gifted that way.

intentionally trying to self-destruct. Does he wake up each morning asking himself, "Who can I piss off today?" I've never seen anything quite like it. He turns on people who have loyally supported him often over trivial crap. I think it is a manifestation of his own self-loathing.

They care about 1 thing above all others, and 1 thing alone. The subjugation of women. And Trump never lets them down, he's their ideal leader in that he's a serial rapist who's abused and attacked women his entire life.

Everything is secondary to that, and abortion is central to it.

When people post that they don't understand how Evangelicals can support Trump despite the way he treats women, I say it's not despite, it's because of the way he treats women that they love him so. They are the American Taliban and if they had it their way, women would not be allowed to hold office, to vote, or to work. To Evangelicals, women belong at home to be the subject of whatever abuse and assault their owner (a man) feels like giving to them that moment.

Miriam Adelson can be coddled other ways or not but the evangelicals love Israel because that's where they believe Jesus will return (and kill all but 144,000 Jews, who will promptly convert) while they (the E's) will get a front row seat in heaven to watch everyone else get thrown into hell.

and that didn't "alienate" his Christian™ base, so I doubt this will either.

Netanyahu will never be in a position to nominate another anti-choice Supreme Court justice.
