Evangelical leaders stick with Trump, focus on defeating Clinton
Leaders of religious conservative groups largely
stood behind Donald Trump on Saturday, the day after vulgar sexual comments he
made about women surfaced online, but some expressed concern that the U.S.
Republican presidential nominee's remarks could depress evangelical turnout on
Election Day.
Most evangelical leaders did not
condemn Trump, and instead pointed to an urgent need to prevent Democratic
nominee Hillary Clinton from winning the presidency, reshaping the Supreme
Court and implementing liberal policies.
The latest blow to Trump's
campaign came after a 2005 video surfaced of the then-reality TV star talking on
an open microphone about groping women and trying to seduce a married woman.
Vice presidential running mate Mike Pence said he could not defend Trump's
words.
Gary Bauer, chairman of the
Campaign for Working Families, said Trump's "grossly inappropriate language"
does not change the choice facing the country in the Nov. 8 election and that
"I continue to support the Trump-Pence ticket."

No matter what your opinion
is of him, Trump is a SAINT compared to Hillary.
