TRUMPVANGELICALS: Trump will protect us Christians from persecution!
BIBLE: "Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus WILL BE persecuted" (II Timothy 3:12, emphasis added)
No politician can save you from what the Bible says is inevitable.

TRUMPVANGELICALS: God would approve of Trump

TRUMPVANGELICALS: Trump's sins aren't as bad as abortion.
