Jeffress: Never Trump Evangelicals are Spineless Morons

“Let me say this as charitably as I can,” Dr. Robert Jeffress said on The Todd Starnes Radio Show. “These ‘Never Trump’ evangelicals are morons. They are absolutely spineless morons and they cannot admit that they were wrong.”

“This is an issue of life and death. This is so black and white so much about good versus evil. I don’t get it,” he told me. “It really goes to the core of who we are as a country and what kind of a country we have in the future and if we can’t get this issue of life right – I just don’t know where we’re going to go down the road.”

“What you’re seeing that Andrew Cuomo and others have proposed it’s not only sinful and wrong, it is barbaric,” he said. “It is the sign of what Romans 1 in the New Testament calls a depraved mind that would allow that to happen.”

“We cannot afford to be like German Christians who, in the rise of the evil reign of Adolf Hitler, just remained neutered. They remained silent. And you saw what happened there,” Jeffress said. “I think there’s a similar wave of godlessness that is rising in our country right now and we must push back against that tide.”

Two years in … still glad Trump won:

  • 2 SCOTUS picks
  • Tax simplification
  • Serious about the border

I think what God gave us as a leader in the US is the modern version of Samson. Absolutely nothing to admire about his spiritual state or the way he runs his life, and even sometimes the way he does his job, but he is willing to take on the “Philistines,” even at 1000:1 odds to be able to get some things done that need doing. He certainly makes things hard on himself and those who support the end goals (like opposition to abortion), and I’d compare his tweeting to tying 300 pairs of foxes together and letting them loose, but he has certainly still turned out better than his opponent would have been.

I know God gives us every leader, whether Obama or Trump, and as such, I see Trump as what God thought the US needed at the moment, and I, for one, am thankful.
