The key here is "was." After Krauthammer saw Trump govern, he changed his attitude, and was no longer a "never-Trumper." I too went thru a similar journey with Trump. I did not vote for Trump in the primary. Like Krauthammer, many conservatives needed time to assess who Trump really was. Getting past the ego, Trump is one of the few politicians who actually intends to keep campaign promises.

Trump never ran as a "better" Christian. Unlike Obama, Trump did not falsely claim to be "born again." This returns us to the age old hypocrisy concerning the demands for morality in office. For years we were lectured to ignore Clinton's infidelities in lieu of "job performance." What saved Clinton cannot also clear Trump? Recent court developments even question the validity of old Trump affairs.

Think about Gillum as you answer!
