This episode is the first in a series of perhaps 6-8 segments giving an overview of the 2016 election by a conservative Christian who is decidedly non-political and a non-pundit. It will pull together at least some of the threads that have led us to the Trump Presidency. Today I’m explaining how I came to the decision to vote for Donald Trump’s opponent, quoting along the way from some excellent sources, including the most excellent one of all, the Bible.

Sources quoted include:

Why this election makes me hate the word ‘evangelical’” by Russell Moore, The Washington Post, February 29, 2016.

I’m Endorsing Hillary Clinton, the Devil We Know” by P. J. O’Rourke, Daily Beast, May 11, 2016.
