| FRC's Tony Perkins |
Last week, an organization known as The Lincoln Project came out with a
brutal ad spotlighting the hypocrisy that white conservative evangelicals have immersed themselves in with their support of Trump.
On Friday, Family Research Council president Tony Perkins (a prominent Trump supporter)
addressed the ad. In doing so, he opened the door for folks to continue to point out the hypocrisy he tried to make excuses for:
. . . what the media and the president's opposition doesn't seem to understand is that evangelicals have never looked at Donald Trump as a role model. They're looking at his record as president. And no one in the modern history of this country has a better one. Whether it's the sanctity of human life or the promotion of religious freedom -- here and around the world -- or the appointment of judges bound to the Constitution, there's absolutely no comparison. What this president has done in the last three years matters. So shouldn't it be relevant to Christians as they vote?
What makes Perkins a hypocrite? Simply the fact that in 2012, his tone was less cavalier about President Obama.
