I had a hard time averting my eyes from the TV the other day when the GOP presidential debate was on. My friend didn’t watch and she wondered why I cared. After all, none of those candidates move me very much, and long ago I forfeited the prospect that a president could save me. But I am always interested in how the leaders, or at least our prospective leaders, are selling their version salvation. What are they saying will save us? I don’t think they are so explicit about this, but I do think they generally tell us that they are the answer to our problems, and can even save us from evil.
Donald Trump won't save you; only Jesus.
