Ned Cosby; American Thinker . . ."So now we have the odd spectacle of worldly Donald Trump again courting evangelicals for the chance to become President again.
"There are evangelical leaders who assure us that Trump has converted and is now a secret believer. Secret believer? Isn’t that an oxymoron? TikTok, a CCP app, has many postings assuring us that Trump is a follower of Jesus. In his most recent interview of former President Trump, I was hoping that Tucker Carlson would ask Trump about his faith. It did not come up.
"Trump knows that he cannot win in 2024 without evangelicals. In a manner that looks a bit like bullying, he demands that we support him, no questions asked.
"If he wants evangelical support this time, we should not be timid in asking him questions about who he is today compared with his libertine past.
"The American family needs a champion in 2024. Our nation needs to do all it can to foster and encourage two-parent families. The help that we give the poor must not discourage two-parent families and encourage unwed motherhood. With Trump’s marital history and record of infidelity, it is hard to see how he can make America great again without renouncing his hedonistic past. Then again, St. Paul persecuted Christians before becoming one of its greatest evangelists.
"I was disappointed to see Tucker miss the opportunity to ask President Trump about these matters. The good news is that we still have time to find out what is in Donald’s heart if anyone dares ask the questions."
