In democracies, it is the responsibility of citizenry to engage in the political, even if only as voters.

I didn't always think this way, as I rejected this nation's diabolical social norms and ways and its illegal government structure (for example in regard to 4th Amendment rights compared with issues like warrantless searches) and therefore at times refused to vote in a kind of protest.

I have also been dissatisfied with having only two choices to vote for, for president, neither of which I wanted in office, and having to choose the lesser of two unchosen candidates.

During the Clinton/Trump campaign the democratic party was lying profusely and frankly overtly. As the devil is the father of lies, voting for Clinton, as a Christian, with her as a Democrat, given the lying, was simply not an option.

They sank their own ship with the lies, not because of LGBTQ.

Trump was a bit of a jerk. He was, however, an honest jerk, bluntly so, and had the temperament and experience for strong leadership. He was the better choice.

As a Christian I did not support him overtly. Nor do I think that as Christians any ought to have. The Gospel suffered. That's the painful truth. The overt public support of Christians for Trump hurt the Gospel.

Supporting a political candidate as citizens, making that distinction as citizens, would have been a better choice.

We need a-type Christians, meaning the rams within the fold, to get active socially and politically - never violently or militantly - as Christians.
