So Cal, you seem to be saying that unless the perfect Christian runs for president then evangelicals can’t vote for or support anyone.
I’ve never met someone who wasn’t a sinner.
That being said, as a Christian, I am hard-pressed to find anything about Trump which I consider objectionable. He’s not perfect. Big deal.

Submission to Governing Authorities
13 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is Gods servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are Gods servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.
Trump has his faults and may not be overly religious, but should be a welcome relief for evangelicals from Obamas pro Muslim secularism or Hillarys abortion loving pro gay atheism.
No question the EV community is leaning unashamedly pragmatic with Trump. Christians are ignoring that he is a profane adulterer and kissing his hand.
The alternative was Hillary advancing Obama’s agenda and a judiciary stacked with Bolsheviks.
History will likely condemn the Evangelicals for being myopic.
Where does that leave our founding fathers?
Who does Cal Thomas “follow” as far as Presidential would-be’s? How perfect is Ted Cruz? I saw enough of the man during the primaries to know he’s not cut out for the Presidency. He’s not sinless either, none of us are, not Cal Thomas and not any human being who has walked the face of this earth since Adam other than Jesus Christ himself. Flawed sinner that he is, Donald Trump is the President and he’s the only Republican who could possibly have withstood the gauntlet to which he’s been subjected. God knows I’n sick of this smug conjecturing.
I would not marry Trump. I would not have Trump as my pastor.
However, it was an easy choice to vote for him over Hillary.
Abba Father YHWH is sovereign. He defined the end from the beginning. Your free will ends when you bump up against His plan. The 2016 US Presidential Election is encoded in the Book of Deuteronomy. Let that sink in. Seth Rich Murder is in that matrix. Let that sink in. Hillary is corrupt was the key to that matrix. Let that sink in.
I wonder how many Evangelicals Vote for Democrats wh0o have a Party Platform that has no recognition of God Almighty and support On Demand Abortion up to the moment of Birth?
Is there some Study out there that every Christian in this Country is a Registered Republican?
Are they saying that it would have been better for all Christians to stay home and let Hillary be elected president of the US?
This is ridiculous!
We don’t elect Presidents for spiritual leadership, or as the example for moral behavior.
Presidents are elected for POLICY decisions.
Which of Hillary’s anticipated policy decisions do these ignorant whiners say they would prefer over those made by Trump?
Maybe cal should stop following his master - the washington media and fake news..
The premise of this article is horrible. You can be a Christian and support a secular leader, who is himself a demonstrated Christian.
Lol! What the heck? This is a great verse when it comes to people supporting the democrats. Why? Because the democrats support and advocate sin, like Homosexuality (Romans 1). They also generally promote abortion, promiscuity, and coveting other people’s money. Supporting them is much more akin to supporting the ‘World’.
This article is way backwards.... supporting policies says more than ‘supporting a person’.
Hear, hear. And as an evangelical Christian, I will add Amen!
Who is still active? Roy Reinhold was the best and he’s stopped publishing, shortly after 9/11. Direct me to that matrix I want to see it.
Quite a silly argument.
