Agreed. I just said it in another way.
Putting aside all claims of hypocrisy, I admit that Trump's morality
is troublesome to me as an evangelical Christian. But I have to draw a different line for a minister of the Gospel and a political ruler. Luke 16.8 tells us, "
The sons of this age are more prudent than the sons of light in their own generation." Trump may not be a moral man like Dubya, but when it comes to business and the economy, he is way more effective.
Some of Dubya's recent criticisms of Trump border on the absurd. The man surely could use a dose of prudence here. I also found it a little ironic that right after Dubya wrote his book on his dad, and then criticized Trump, news came out about HW's groping habits. It irks me that Dubya chose to be silent about BHO but not about DJT.
But, yes, liberals are hypocritical about Trump's morality, since they condone so much of their own. How about applying the same standard?
