Evangelical leaders don't like Trump

This is good news: some leading Evangelical leaders in the USA don't like Trump.

Get religion links to a Washington Post piece that ran under the headline, "Evangelical leaders are frantically looking for ways to defeat Donald Trump."


Dobson’s position characterizes the point of view of many evangelical leaders who are seeking ways to defeat Trump. Many dislike his involvement in gambling and are uncomfortable with his statements. For instance, some leaders cited his reported comments about his daughter’s figure, including: “I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.” The sense of urgency among many evangelical leaders to defeat Trump became clear this week after he proposed that Muslims be temporarily halted from immigrating to the United States.
