As to how Evangelicals overlook character flaws that are so obvious in Trump.

Liar, cheat, abuser(words and deeds), hypocrite, etc...are character traits they admire in Trump. That he being a sinner makes him one of them? Hardly.

If anyone who knows Trump, it is God and His Son, Jesus Christ. Our salvation and place in Heaven is NOT guaranteed. What we do on this Earth determines our afterlife. What, how, why, and where regarding Trump over his entire life will be crucial if his immortal soul suffers in Hell. THEY know all that he has done and likely will have to suffer for it.

Saying you believe in God and Jesus and not acting like it in your life, says LOADS about one's character. Trump would not know character if it came out and bit him on his orange wrinkly ass.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
