I asked first. Answer me and then we'll talk.Can't Christians contemplate their values and make up their own minds? Must a minister tell them who to vote for?What?! And he loves America too? Oh man, Trump sure is making the NWO Globalist jerks very nervous. Good on em.
Donald Trump accused the media of mocking Christians and vowed to be a champion for religious liberty at a gathering of social conservatives in Washington on Friday.
Speaking at the Values Voter Summit, the GOP presidential nominee received several standing ovations from the packed ballroom of Christian conservatives.
Trump has at times struggled to convince social conservatives that he can be a trusted advocate for the causes that are important to them, but many have come around as they consider the prospect of a Hillary Clinton presidency.
On Friday, Trump thrilled the crowd with a speech that flashed an increased familiarity with the language Christians use and the issues that are most important to them.
Trump focused heavily on school choice, religious liberty, the Supreme Court and the threat of terrorism — all of which are among the top issues for the social conservatives at the yearly conference.

Talk about speaking truth tho power!
And right at the media!
And....this: defense of the first amendment and freedom of speech:

So I am going to work like hell to get rid of that prohibition and we’re going to have the strongest Christian lobby and it’s going to happen. This took place during the presidency of Lyndon Johnson and it has had a terrible chilling effect."
Donald Trump: As President, I’ll Reverse the Law That Prevents Churches from Endorsing Candidates
Who can defend Lyndon Johnson's denial of the Constituiton any more than his votes against anti-lynching laws.
Don't be afraid: state your position.....silence the free speech of pastors or not?
Support anti-lynching laws or vote Democrat?
Speak up.
I detect your palpable fear of defending the Constitution, and with it the possibility of having to censure Liberalism/Democrats.
You've served your purpose....dismissed.
