The Madness of King Donald
"I want to say one more thing to Christian conservatives who think Trump is all that stands between us and the Devil in a Red Pantsuit. What the church in America suffers from, and indeed the general moral and spiritual crisis in this nation, is not political. Our politics are a manifestation of it, not the cause of it. Donald Trump is not a solution to the problem, he’s a symptom of it. Politics will not fix what is broken within us. True, a Clinton presidency will make the conditions under which we can live and minister towards healing what is broken in America more difficult. Much more difficult. But here’s the thing: so will a Trump presidency, only in different ways, and in ways much harder to anticipate. Vote Trump if you must, but don’t fool yourself about what he is going to do for us."
