I can see how a non-Christian already pre-disposted to hate any Republican in the WH would be upset that Christians support trump in spite of his multiple marriage, and reputed affairs. I'll see if I can explain it:
Christians of the type that support Trump hate the sin but love the sinner. They believe in forgiveness and renewal. If Trump claims that he has become a Christian and left his formerly sinful life behind, Christians must accept it, because they want their own sins to be forgiven also. If Trump is lying about being a Christian, then he will be judged by the only judge, not by Christians.
Trump moved the Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, some thing promised by never done by several presidents before him. To a Christian, that means more than any past affairs.
You don't have to agree or even understand this Christian attitude. People vote how they vote.
According to the Bible, God casts the sinner with his sin into the lake of fire, not just his sins. You greasy grace gospelers support Trump, because he's against abortion, open borders, and all of the transgender nonsense, not because you love Trump due to supposedly converting to Christianity. That's a silly argument. I can respect you supporting Trump because of the aforementioned policies, not because he "converted" to Christianity and can now supposedly be a fornicator, and an adulterer..etc.
As a Christian, you need to be consistent and not pretend your "salvation package" comes with a "sin option". There's no "sin option" for the disciples of Jesus Christ, according to the Bible. You must die with Christ and only then do you enjoy the privilege of rising and ruling with Him. You will never be a member of His royal family until you climb on the cross with Jesus and die with Him.
Luk_9:23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
Luk 14:26 If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
Luk 14:27 And whoever does not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
Luk 14:28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?
Luk 14:29 Lest at any time, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,
Luk 14:30 Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
Luk 14:31 Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?
Luk 14:32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.
Luk 14:33 So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
