Bryan Fischer Says There Is No Reason For The Religious Right To Punish America By Turning On Trum

[Initech]

American Family Radio’s Bryan Fischer was asked by a caller to his “Focal Point” program yesterday to share his thoughts on reports that Donald Trump had an adulterous affair with a porn actress several years ago and then paid her $130,000 in hush money shortly before the 2016 election, as well as the admission by Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council that the Religious Right was giving Trump “a mulligan” for such behavior because he is faithfully implementing their political agenda.

Fischer said that while Trump’s behavior was “reprehensible” and “despicable,” it doesn’t really matter because Trump is still the president and therefore it doesn’t make much sense to “punish America” by removing him from office when he is championing the public policy issues that the Religious Right cares about.

“Regardless of what I think about what Donald Trump did, he is still our president,” Fischer said. “He is still going to be the president today, he is going to be the president tomorrow. He is not going to be impeached over this thing, he is not going to be removed from office, so we can weep and wail and gnash our teeth—kind of like we did with Bill Clinton—but it didn’t make any difference. Bill Clinton kept right on being president.”

“So I think we still have to deal with life as it is handed to us,” he continued. “We still have to look at contemporary events, we still have to look at the policies that the president is advocating—do we agree with them, do we disagree with them? If there are policies that are good, there is no reason for us not to support him just because he did such a tawdry thing 11 years ago. I’m not going to punish America because of what he did 11 years ago; that wouldn’t make any sense whatsoever.”

3. These people just suck.

Christianity has been taken over by a lunatic fringe hateful cult.

2. Always back to Clinton, huh?

I was not aware that Monica was a porn star, or that Bill paid her $130K through a fake LLC to cover his tracks, or that Hillary was pregnant at the time of the affair.

4. Did Bill ever ask a porn star to spank him with a copy of Forbes Magazine with his picture on it?

No.

5. If Bryan Fischer advises doing one thing, do the opposite. Always. n/t

6. Like Tony Perkins, Fischer very much wants women to die in back alleys and he wants

to torture gay people and he will excuse anything and everything the chief traitor does to achieve those two goals.

7. Brian Fischer is an idiot

8. This argument is bullshit

But the best follow up question to undercut this argument is simple ....”should evangelicals vote for him in 2020?”

That would show the hypocrisy of that whole stuck-with-him argument.

9. Been a long time since I read The Book of Revelation; but, aren't there verses about........

......the Anti-Christ deceiving many believers in 'The Last Days?' Not that I take any of this literally; but, I think Trump qualifies as AN Anti-Christ if not THE Anti-Christ.
