Franklin Graham Supports Trump

Franklin Graham interviewed by Laurence O'Donnell on MSNBC said he considers Donald Trump as a reasonable candidate after hearing him talk. Graham admires Trumps business success and says we need that now.

Here is a minister, son of Billy Graham, coming out in support of someone who is a gambling casino operator who has gone in bankruptcy four times and whose claims about President Obama not being born in the US have been totally debunked.

O'Donnell began to question Rev. Graham about his Jesus relationship because Jesus said that to follow him one must sell everything he has and give the money to the poor.

Graham said he qualified because he asked Jesus to be his personal savior.

It is amazing how people make up their own rules, reach out to those who stand opposed to what they claim are Jesus rules, and on top of it, get thousands to flock to their side and throw money at them.

Franklin Graham's support for Donald Trump should not be a surprise to anyone who follows Hidden Meanings. He represents a form of pathological thinking that has been a mainstay in this country for decades. He has gained credibility and prominence by virtue of his father's so-called Christian legacy. For anyone to seriously consider and promote Donald Trump as a viable candidate for the Presidency or any political office for that matter, demonstrates how tragically misguided and irresponsible they are. To consider himself a "Man of God" is truly laughable-- Mr. Graham simply epitomizes the shameless hypocrisy, narrow mindedness and kow towing to the rich and powerful, that has been at the center of the Graham relgious dynasty far too long.

This is very well said. It is also amazing to me that a famous Christian representative would fall all over a casino operator who represents the power of the rich over the middle class. Mr Graham turns his back on the current political attacks against workers, the elderly, the poor and the sick

YES! It seems that everyone hides their faith just behind their nasty ways. Pick and choose what and what not to belilve.

It's hardly surprising someone from the Graham brigade would support Trump. Trump is a masonic kabalist who is a long time Democratic supporter. Dr. Jerome Corsi stated emphatically last week that Trump, after receiving the advanced copy of the good doctor's book on the world's most powerful man's nebulous past, passed it on to the White House.

As much as I love Billy D, it's not too much to ask of the man with his finger on the thermonuclear button as to why no one at Columbia University, where he received his political science degree, or anyone at Harvard, while he was a student, can remember the bloke. Why is it that students at the exclusively rich and white college, Occidental College, remember him as Barry Sotoero? Remember, this man has his finger on the button, but let's not ask questions?! Sorry, I don't trust this clown as far as I can spit. I could go on and on, but suffice it to say: Dr. Corsi is zeroing in on the horrendous Adobe PhotoShop job carried out by a complete novice. Seriously, I could have done a better job. There are a dozen different fonts, and this from a sheet of paper supposedly printed before the digital age. Dr. Corsi feels they've actually found the owner of the computer who made the horrible fake. Example: the second '1' in the year 1961, is digital and completely out of place. I could fill pages on the horrible job. Bill Donahue! - you of all people should be seeing through this - you intellectual stud - you!!
