We never thought we’d agree with Christianity Today, but…
The magazine’s editor-in-chief Mark Galli just published a forceful editorial calling for Donald Trump to be removed from office. Not only that, but he’s urging his fellow Christians to stop sticking up for the guy, damn it!
“The facts in this instance are unambiguous,” Galli writes. “The president of the United States attempted to use his political power to coerce a foreign leader to harass and discredit one of the president’s political opponents.”
The magazine, which was originally founded in 1956 by none other than Billy Graham, is one of the leading evangelical magazines in the country, with over 250,000 print subscribers, plus a large online readership.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
In the op-ed, Galli calls Trump’s actions not only a violation of the Constitution but “profoundly immoral” and says Trump himself is “a near perfect example of a human being who is morally lost and confused.”

He writes:
The reason many are not shocked about this is that this president has dumbed down the idea of morality in his administration. He has hired and fired a number of people who are now convicted criminals. He himself has admitted to immoral actions in business and his relationship with women, about which he remains proud. His Twitter feed alone—with its habitual string of mischaracterizations, lies, and slanders—is a near perfect example of a human being who is morally lost and confused.
And then comes the real kicker: “To the many evangelicals who continue to support Mr. Trump in spite of his blackened moral record, we might say this: Remember who you are and whom you serve.”
Naturally, Trump isn’t pleased about the letter. In typical fashion, he took to Twitter to attack the magazine, calling it a “far left magazine” that “knows nothing about reading a perfect transcript of a routine phone call” and is “doing poorly.”
….have a Radical Left nonbeliever, who wants to take your religion & your guns, than Donald Trump as your President. No President has done more for the Evangelical community, and it’s not even close. You’ll not get anything from those Dems on stage. I won’t be reading ET again!

Well, Trump doesn’t know his butt from his elbow, so why should he know his right from his left?

Too cool! Trump is just playing his TV reality show, The Trumpident of Trumpica!

By now this just is sadly predictable. Speak the truth to Trump and be ridiculed and reviled. Why isn’t EVERYBODY sick of this? Aren’t you tired of this pathetic reality show? I sure as hell am and will do all I can to make sure he doesn’t get elected in 2020.

I am sick of Trumpy Wumpy as well, you’ve got a partner.

Wow. It’s taken these christians about four years to come to the conclusion that Trump is morally reprehensible. They sure are slow learners.

ET is not Christianity Today. it just shows he is upset. He should be upset. The comment that Putin is laughing at him, could be ne involved with trump sexually? Never know. They have something on trump. The evangelicals have been swallowed into this sad tale of lies and corruption. They are very misguided. They can not love someone they can not see and hate some one they can see. It does not work that way. And voting for the spawn of satan.

Christianity Today didn’t say anything that Putin’s puppet Peaches the Traitorous Con Man does already admit to himself, that he’s incompetent and unfit for public office, even dogcatcher. He should take Mitt Romney’s advice and “self-deport,” to Moscow and Putin’s waiting arms.

And he should take Moscow Mitch with him!

Our resident gay Trump-worshippers here in Queerty comments have been noticeably absent lately!

Maybe they are learning that Trumpy Wumpy is not the butch they thought he was! :>)

Bwahahahahahahahahahaha! I just love to see Trump smacked down about his immoral actions. I knew he was a narcissistic bully years ago and was shocked to see him get elected. By all means, our Congress needs to remove him from office, along with Moscow Mitch and Linda Graham Cracker who must have caused John McCain to turn in his grave.

You mean those Putin trolls?
Maybe he didn’t send them their money in time…

Hello,
The president being Trump is so mentally off the wall that I doubt my own sanity. The fact that at least three long time friends decided to stop dealing with me over my view that Trump is a bad nightmarish type also is enough to cause me to question myself.

Where the hell were these guys in 2016 before he was nominated and elected. A LITTLE TOO LATE FOR BUYERS REMORSE.

Why listen to a mainstream educated/”elitist” (yet still conservative) publication when you have Trump’s own Spiritual advisor/Bile dispenser/Hallelujah Jetset Barbie screaming crazy at everyone?
