President Trump is guilty of one “crime”:That is simply ridiculous. Trump has been under attack even while he was running for office and plans for impeachment were already under way when he had done absolutely nothing.. There is a HUGE DIFFERENCE between a Criminal Conspiracy to perpetrate a COUP against a sitting President, and the impeachment of a man who was caught red-handed in sexual shenanigans at the White House.
If Christians are unable to discern between lies and truth, then God help us all.

For those unaware I am a Canadian, although I did spent a good chunk of my younger years growing up in the United States up to the age of 12. I do not have American or dual national status however, so I cannot vote in any U.S. election.
Regardless I am a keen political observer (keener than some, not as keen as others) and I do keep an eye on what's happening in the United States. Why? Because American power and influence touches every corner of the globe and the U.S. is Canada's biggest trading partner. Canada is America's number two trading partner after China. So obviously whoever occupies the White House has an impact up here, as one Canadian Prime Minister once quipped: "When America sneezes Canada catches a cold".
With that being said I do think an article like this has the potential to move the needle, if not in a Senate vote, then possibly come November 2020 when Americans go to the polls. Had this editorial appeared on CNN's website, or any other MSM outlet I'd just say "meh....no big deal". But an lead editorial in a publication that lists Billy Graham as a founder, that's something completely different. Their website says their movement reaches over 5 million Christian leaders each month, and I assume that a large chunk of that is in the United States if not most of it.
According to polling data over 80% of white voters who identify themselves as Evangelicals support Donald Trump. And given the razor thin victory the President achieved in 2016 even a small move of the needle could have a major impact in my view. Yes Trump won the Electoral College vote handily, but I would submit that his 304 to 227 Electoral College victory was due to swing states all falling in line. I'm talking about Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan....had Trump lost Florida and just one of those others, Hillary Clinton would be the one running for re-election right now.
I don't think Trump is at risk of losing solidly red states like Texas or the Carolinas for example...but the swing states of which I've counted 6 here, if Florida and just one other goes to the Democrats, then that would make a huge difference.
I'm curious to see what others have to say after reading this Editorial. And as a gentle reminder, that goes for myself as well, let's remember that this is a Christian forum and that we're all image bearers. That's something I sometimes forget when I vehemently disagree with someone's point of view. I will strive to treat others in the manner in which I like to be treated, with kindness love and respect.
And now its Christianity Today that's being attacked. Christians eating their own?

It is a matter of rebuking Left wing politics entering into Christianity
You miss the entire point. Christians are aware of what's happening to our president and by a Left wing that has turned toward the dark side and against all that America stands for and stands against. God continues to bless America despite the best efforts of our enemies both foreign and domestic.it's apparently fine if worldly politics infect Christianity as long as it's republican worldly partisanship.
*shrug*
They started it, did they not expect people to respond strongly to being told they're not Christian because they voted for Trump?!

God protect continually our leadership and our people. Amen.
He didn't let me down. In fact he's done more than I expected like help pass the mission act. so vets don't have to travel scores of miles to see medical specialists. Obama Care was so Rube Goldberg it was bound to fail from the beginning.You are right Whispered, the liberals were appalled when Trump got elected. That is all this is about, trying to defame him. Some Democrats that went along, like that woman rep from Oklahoma, just because of party pressure are being held accountable.
On the issue of Trump: I must ask what did he do that was so immoral. I was saddened that he was the only conservative choice in 2016, but he was. If he has let someone down, I think their expectations were set too high to begin with. I mean, let's face it; will any worldly politician satisfy our Christian heritage? I think not.

I think the moment an opinion piece implies or states such a thing emphatically, the author of said piece cannot be construed as articulating their personal opinion without adding the animus engendered from the whole of the Left and their talking points to date to that opinion piece in CT.They started it, did they not expect people to respond strongly to being told they're not Christian because they voted for Trump?!
Born again or Evangelical? Evangelical Christians Are born again or they are frauds. How many didn't vote?I think the moment an opinion piece implies or states such a thing emphatically, the author of said piece cannot be construed as articulating their personal opinion without adding the animus engendered from the whole of the Left and their talking points to date to that opinion piece in CT.
What the author of the CT opinion piece can't get around is this, from The Hill: "...Eighty-one percent of self-described white, born-again or evangelical Christians voted for Trump in 2016, and 78 percent said they approved of his job performance as of March 2019, according to the Pew Research Center.
How many Voted for Trump just to oppose Hillary and/or Bernie?Born again or Evangelical? Evangelical Christians Are born again or they are frauds. How many didn't vote?
Please tell me you’re pro-life.it's apparently fine if worldly politics infect Christianity as long as it's republican worldly partisanship.
