Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has garnered support among conservative evangelical voters, which has left some to question why the thrice-married business mogul appeals to a group that is known for voting on values.
A national poll reveals that Trump holds 42 percent support among evangelicals. His current closest rival, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who is known for his conservative values and Biblical morals, holds only 25 percent.
Trump also recently received a warm welcome from Jerry Falwell, Jr., the president of the largest Christian college, Liberty University, where, even though he mispronounced a book of the Bible, he still appeared to be well-received.
It is very surprising to such a huge support for a fellow who referred to communion as “the little wine” and “the little cracker.”
“Donald Trump basically gave voice to the idea that Washington is broken and needs to be fixed,” says Bob Vander Plaats, shedding some light on the question. “People right away resonate with that.”
He seems to be in control and sounds like he has an antidote for the malady that has befallen the nation.
