How? Consider the following rationalization on the part of an evangelical Trump voter:
If Trump has an affair with a porn star and she gets pregnant, and has an abortion, it is actually her fault for enticing Trump and cheating with him. The "fallen woman" syndrome. Trump was merely a man giving in to the sexual desire provoked by the woman. Eve tempting Adam.
Thus Trump avoids all responsibility and the Trump voter can still think of Trump as a basically good man.
Thoughts?

(650 posts)if a woman is raped it's her fault !!!!
but coming from a religious group that
Supposedly follows the teaching of Christ
is insane.
To those people I ask the following questions :
if Christ is here walking among
us would he be a Trump supporter
or even a right wing republican?
would he support taking Heath
Insurance from millions of people.
Would he give tax breaks to the richest
on the expense of millions of poor
and needy people .
You do not have to answer, just search
Your heart .
