If you support the man, then own the baggage!

Charlie Sykes makes a good point. If support the man, then they must own all the baggage that comes with him!

On another note, Huckabee advises:

 

 

My thoughts:

 

1.      Okay, I will!

2.      The Republican Party actually left me just like the Democratic Party left Ronald Reagan.

3.      Mr. Huckabee, if you CAN support Donald Trump then check your Christian values at the door when you vote for him.

4.      Mr. Huckabee, if you CAN support Donald Trump then PLEASE don’t tell anyone you are a Christian. Or will you say, “Let us do evil that good may come? (Rom. 3:8)”

 

This reminds me of a legend about Alexander the Great.

 

Legend has recorded a story about Alexander the Great, one of the greatest military generals who ever lived. One night during a campaign, he couldn’t sleep and left his tent to walk around the campgrounds.  As he was walking he came across a soldier asleep on guard duty – a serious offense. The penalty for falling asleep on guard duty was, in some cases, instant death; the commanding officer sometimes poured kerosene on the sleeping soldier and lit it.  The soldier began to wake up as Alexander the Great approached him.  Recognizing who was standing in front of him, the young man feared for his life. “Do you know what the penalty is for falling asleep on guard duty?”

Alexander the Great asked the soldier. “Yes, sir,” the soldier responded in a quivering voice. “Soldier, what’s your name?” demanded Alexander the Great. “Alexander, sir.”

Alexander the Great repeated the question: “What is your name?” “My name is Alexander, sir,” the soldier repeated.  A third time and more loudly Alexander the Great asked, “What is your name?”  A third time the soldier meekly said, “My name is Alexander, sir.” Alexander the Great then looked the young soldier straight in the eye. “Soldier,” he said with intensity, “either change your name or change your  conduct.”

 

My advice to Huckabee, Palin, etc.  is either change your name (Christian) or change your support for an immoral, racist, lying, misogynist con man who is categorically unqualified for the position of the highest office in the land.

 

What difference, at this point, does it make?

 

 

 

If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures. -Alexander Hamilton
