Conservative Christian Sellouts

Conservative Christians, of which I am one, have sold out when it comes to President Trump, or at least the majority of them have. After pointing out for years the negative things the Bible says about homosexuality and criticizing President Obama for his support of the LGBT agenda, they are strangely silent when it comes to President Trump.

When Trump was asked if he saw anything wrong with Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg appearing at political rallies with his “husband,” he said: “I think it’s great. I think that’s something that perhaps some people will have a problem with. I have no problem with it whatsoever. I think it’s good.” He thinks it’s great and good? If Obama had said that, conservatives Christians would have had a screaming fit.

And that’s not all, June is “LGBT Pride Month.” This is something that conservative Christians neither celebrate nor recognize. Yet Trump recently tweeted:

As we celebrate LGBT Pride Month and recognize the outstanding contributions LGBT people have made to our great Nation, let us also stand in solidarity with the many LGBT people who live in dozens of countries worldwide that punish, imprison, or even execute individuals on the basis of their sexual orientation. My administration has launched a global campaign to decriminalize homosexuality and invite all nations to join us in this effort!

Where is the outrage from conservative Christians? If Trump were a Democrat, they would be castigating him day and night. Does Trump get a pass just because Democrats and liberals hate him? Does Trump get a pass just because he is a Republican?
