"Never Trumper Republicans"...are "human scum!"...Trump

99% of Republican white evangelical Protestants oppose impeaching and removing Trump, new poll

White evangelical Protestants have never held President Trump's possible moral shortcomings against him, supporting him despite his string of marriages, occasionally foul language and questionable familiarity with Biblical teaching. Although Mr. Trump has boasted about grabbing women in vulgar language, and referred to Second Corinthians as "Two Corinthians" in a pre-election forum, 81% of white evangelical Protestants supported Mr. Trump in the 2016 election.

The president has counted white evangelical Protestant leaders like Robert Jeffress and Jerry Falwell Jr. as some of his strongest allies since taking office. While they may recoil at his abrasive language, white evangelical Protestants are largely pleased with Mr. Trump's role in nominating conservative judges to the federal bench. Although many faith leaders opposed Mr. Trump's decision to withdraw American troops from northern Syria — televangelist Pat Robertson warned that Mr. Trump was "in danger of losing the mandate of heaven" — a new poll suggests that white evangelical Protestants are sticking with the president through the impeachment inquiry.

According to a poll released this week by the Public Religion Research Institute, a nonprofit nonpartisan organization, 99% of Republican white evangelical Protestants oppose the impeachment and removal of Mr. Trump from office. This is an even greater percentage than overall Republicans, 94% of which oppose the impeachment and removal of Mr. Trump. (Ninety-nine percent of Republicans who watch Fox News, a subsection that likely overlaps with white evangelical Protestants, also oppose impeachment and removal.)
I think this is a good example of just how narrowly you have to define a group of people to start getting 99% of them to agree on anything. Not just Republicans. Not just white Republicans. Not just white Protestant Republicans. White evangelical Protestant Republicans.
 
It is bizarre and disturbing that the presidential press secretary would speak or write this way.

This is in the zone of those crazy North Korea press releases. And to think so many conservatives were outraged that Obama was arrogant. Makes you wonder if maybe it was something else that bothered them.

55% of Republicans who get their news from Fox say there is nothing Trump could do that would cause him to lose their approval.

I would love to see the list of thing a person with a D next to their name could do that would make them favor impeachment.

This is why the House GOP are doing nothing during the hearing to learn about what Trump did. They don’t care and neither do their constituents. They just want Rs to win elections regardless of how corrupt they may be. Being a Democrat is more toxic to them than being a traitor, or anything else for that matter.

Two things about that guy - A) He really believes that crap and B) there are probably just enough people who are crazy enough to feel validated by what he just said.

I hope he's happy when someone opens fire in a some place they think is full of Trump-hating liberals. Good God, what a dumbass.
That just enough is close to half the voting population! :(

Yeah, but that's different! ;)
