Wehner quoted Trump Jr. who said of Christian community values, “We’ve turned the other cheek and I understand sort of the biblical reference, I understand the mentality but it’s gotten us nothing. OK? It’s gotten us nothing while we’ve ceded ground in every major institution.”

Wehner concluded that Trump Jr.’s message is that “the ethic of Jesus has gotten in the way of successfully prosecuting the culture wars against the left.”

“If the ethic of Jesus encourages sensibilities that might cause people in politics to act a little less brutally, a bit more civilly, with a touch more grace? Then it needs to go,” Wehner concluded was the thrust of Trump Jr.’s message to young conservatives.

Only dumbed-down Evangelicals and board Trumpettes can be fooled into equating the Trumps with anything connected with Christian values.

Only dumbed-down Evangelicals and board Trumpettes can be fooled into equating the Trumps with anything connected with Christian values.

It's not hard to follow their reasoning, if that is not too strong a word: Liberals and leftists are anti-Christian, therefore anything opposed to them must be pro-.
