Evangelicals MUST reject Trump’s re-election 10-14-2020

 

14, October 2020            Evangelicals MUST reject Trump’s re-election

At a recent political rally, Donald Trump made the preposterous claim that he is an evangelical, a devout Christian! Nothing could be further from the truth – unless holding a Bible upside-down outside a Church makes you a Christian.

Readers may recall Trump as the man who escaped the horrors of the Vietnam War, falsely claiming he had bone spurs and has long voiced his disdain for US veterans and soldiers as “losers and suckers” and his supporters as “disgusting”.

Sadly, we as a nation have long abandoned one of the most basic tenets it of Christianity, namely it is immoral to kill innocent civilians

Last summer Trump said the American military should kill the families of terrorists. But who are the terrorists? I wonder how Trump would describe countries who supply weapons to autocratic regimes like Egypt, Pakistan, Turkey and Saudi Arabia who commit unspeakable atrocities against their own people. How would we describe US pilots and drone operators who blow up innocent men, women and children? Under his radical doctrine wouldn’t Trump and his family be liable for war crimes or worse? I wonder if Jesus and evangelicals concur with Trump’s radical beliefs. Wouldn’t these actions compound the war crimes we are already committing against impoverished nations like Yemen? Are not the actions of our US allies who round up and torture dissidents and toss them into dark dungeons violate the basic tenet of Christianity? In a further example of violent anti-Christian doctrine, Trump gave the green light to China to continue its genocidal actions against the Uigurs. Evangelicals, this the time to voice your outage against the antichrist President. Do not t follow Republicans who have long abandoned their core values blindly following the Pipe Pieper of Deceit. Speak out and regain your wonderful Christian heritage before it is too late. Vote early and vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
