Since I have not read your response ( and do not know whether it is forthcoming ), I thought I’d like to post my response to the author.
He said: “If Trump is a malignant narcissist as many of us believe, he is an evil person and has no redeeming qualities.”
Even if he exagerrated statement above is true ( which it is not ), I’d like to ask him — WHAT IS OUR ALTERNATIVE in 2016?
Should we vote for the opponent who:
1) Threatened and intimidated the woman who her husband raped?
2) Used her party’s money to fabricate a fake dossier on her opponent so that the country would be plunged into 2 wasted years and millions of dollars in an investigation that went nowhere? ( What is that commandment about not bearing false witness again, Mr. Thurman?)
3) Refuses to answer for abandoning our soldiers when they needed help in Benghazi and then lying about the cause of the attack to their families?
4) Endanger the national security of our country by putting Sensitive National information on a private server in order to hide her dealings to enrich herself, her husband and their foundation?
5) Concoct a lie to justify the firing of an innocent man named Billy Dale, in Travelgate, who was bankrupted trying to defend himself only to be acquitted later?
6) Supports the killing of babies up to the time of birth? (Trump has shown that he is one of the MOST PRO-LIFE Presidents this country has ever seen ).
7) Supports the appointment of judges and justices who will refuse to protect our religious freedoms? (Trump is doing the OPPOSITE of what Hillary planned to do ).
8) Said she supported traditional marriage, only to change her mind and now strongly support the redefinition of marriage?
IS THAT WHO EVANGELICALS SHOULD SUPPORT MR. THURMAN?
AND SUPPORTING A WOMAN WHO DOES ALL THE ABOVE IS NOT SUPPORTING EVIL?
What this writer does not get is this — we are not given black and white choices in elections but a choice between flawed individuals.
Evangelicals are BETTER OFF choosing the flawed person who supports the causes Evangelical care about.
If Thurman prefers Evangelicals to support Hillary, he better give us his reasons as to why he thinks it is the better alternative.
God raised up King Cyrus as an ANNOINTED KING. Even though he was not Jewish. Clearly, God can use President Trump to support his people.
When it comes to worshipping idols, bearing false witness and coveting other people’s stuff I think the author should direct his criticism against the Democrats.

RE: Please, take me up on my challenge. Give me one single example of a true positive trait in our current president
JUST THESE OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD (I’M SURE THERE’s MORE):
1) He kept his word to Evangelicals. He appointed Judges and Justices who uphold the law instead of legislating from the bench.
2) He kept his word about being supporting the protection of unborn babies.
3) He kept his word about protecting the borders of this country from illegals who refuse to respect our immigration laws.
4) De-regulated and did away with government rules that were crushing the life of businesses big and small, resulting in the unleashing of risk taking an creating an economic boom with the lowest unemployment rate in 50 years — all to the benefit of ALL RACES.
Now, let me turn the question around to the author. WHAT WOULD THE RESULTS OF ELECTING THE ALTERNATIVE BE?
Right, go with the pedos and the rest of the perverts instead.
Who else were we to support?
The baby killing democrat candidate?
I am going to try and post on this guys article, but I will post here first for my FP family.
Self-control - President Trump does not smoke or drink.
Love - I see self evident, and proclaimed love for his children, for veterans, for first responders.
Forbearance- Iran still exist although President Trump had forces in the air and sea ready to destroy it.
Joy- Really, have you actually seen Trump speak at a rally?
Kindness - How about asking the 3 falsely imprisoned vets Trump just pardoned? How about asking the people released under the First Step Act?
I could go on about peacemaker, generous, and others, but the real point is your fallacious statement “Remember, I’m not talking about the good things he has done.”
Everyone on the face of the earth can only be judged by what they do. Only God knows if they have a positive character trait, if they are doing it from positive motives. Mr. Thurman, why did you write this article and what positive motive did you have? Or are you just shilling for the Democrat nominee?
This slip of the tongue belies his Trump Derangement Syndrome. He apparently expects us to join him in bashing Trump.
This Thurman is wrong, as he says at the end. What a load of my tag line.
Popular traditional Jewish teachers like Rabbi Reuven Wolf, Rabbi Mendel Kessin, Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi and others have no problem pointing out that Pres. Trump represents King Cyrus, or Roman Emperor Antoninus (who secretly converted to Judaism), or is ‘the good that is in Esau’ the brother of Jacob.
They also have no hesitation to call the maniacal opposition to Trump Satanic.

Does this show a person with an evil heart Mr. Thurman?
“ Evangelicals who support Trump (defined in my op-ed as those who “continue to hold Trump up as a great leader, say he is God’s chosen one for the presidency, applaud his appalling words and actions, ignore his glaring moral defects, and enable his dangerous presidency to continue by giving him their time, talents, and treasure”) are being foolish and being played for fools by Trump and his sycophants.”
Mathew 5:22 comes to mind.
22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
>>>in spite of the fact that he is a deeply mentally and morally disturbed person<<<
Opinions are opinions and facts are facts. The Author seems to lack that understanding.
Fact based opinions are lacking when it comes to the Left.
Today’s Pharisees.
The author admits President Trump’s actions are wonderful but that, somehow, the fruit of his actions is growing on the poisoned tree of his character. The problem is that character is inferred from actions. One cannot be said to have a wonderful character that is bereft of good works. A study of Jesus would help the author immeasurable.
Hard to follow this logic unless we start with the realization that Chris Thurman hates President Trump. The rest follows easily.
I was looking at a Henry lever-action 45-70 the other day. I really liked it, but I had to ask myself, “What am I going to do with it? Hunt buffalo?”
RE: >>>in spite of the fact that he is a deeply mentally and morally disturbed person<<<
After Iran shot down our Drone in the gulf, we could have attacked Iran and destroyed their air defense system.
“We were cocked & loaded to retaliate last night on 3 different sights when I asked, how many will die,” Trump said in a series of tweets last June.
Upon hearing the projected death toll for Iran ( a minimum of 150, some civilians), Trump said, he decided that the strike was not “proportionate to shooting down an unmanned drone.” The president said he put a halt to the operation 10 minutes before the strike was set to begin.
Question to Mr. Thurman: Would a deeply mentally and morally disturbed person have the presence of mind, resolve and self-control to do what Trump did?
This article is about as juvenile as it gets, and demonstrates the extent to which politics, no matter how impactful to humanity, is still not much more than a glorified Game of Thrones to most people. Until things get hot, of course.
