We can’t measure politicians simply as politicians. We must measure them by the competence and character that drive their ability to be effective leaders. Consider Donald Trump. He has never been loved and doesn’t know how to love. He is a taker, not a giver. He is a narcissist in a “me world” who enters his speeches looking for the acclaim of the audience rather than acknowledging his audience. He demeans his opponents. He wants power but plays the role of a victim.
Many of his former staff have abandoned him, criticizing him as a leader and a person. His business practices have recently been found to be illegal. His treatment of women is contemptable.I can only assume that he affirms the beliefs and values of his followers. But I can’t see how any true Christian could find anything to support in him.
