Will the Christian Right forgive him if he is a pedophile?

They forgive everything he has done with the reasoning that "as long as he did it BEFORE he was elected it doesn't bother them". If he does have one or a dozen illegitimate kids and a gold showers pee pee tape they will excuse him. Would being a pedophile cross their hypocritical line of what is moral and what isn't?

As long as the kid he raped wasn't black or brown, they'd forgive the hell out of him.

with his housekeeper got me to thinking how it probably will be no big deal for his cult/base. Then I wondered what he could do that would lose some of his support.

I heard about the possible sixth child.

This is so exhausting. I'm glad I have the rescue barn to go love on horses to take my mind off things.

Well, that and a glass of chardonnay every now and again.

in fact, some of them will likely offer their young daughters to him.

Raping boys might take a few of them away, but not too many.

...it's up to the victims to forgive and up to the individual to ask for it.....IF they are remorseful for the offense they committed.

The Christian Right can't forgive shit unless he porked them too.

They won't bat an eye. He is already plumbing the depths of depravity. He shouldn't need to go lower for every person on the planet to puke at the mention of him.
