Robert Jeffress Quotes
Most Americans know we are in a mess, and as they look at Donald Trump, they believe he is the one leader who can reverse the downward death spiral of this nation we love so dearly.
Jeffress, Robert. Trump Campaign Rally, 2016.
Trump was a very wealthy businessman and celebrity who had flirted with running for the Republican nomination for President. He then supported Mitt Romney, but continued with his birther accusations against President Obama. The Birthers were extremists and any racists who perpetrated the absurd story that Obama was born in Kenya and not in Hawaii where his family insists he was born, where the local newspapers at the tie report his birth, where his birth certificate shows he was born, where the local hospital records show he was born. Trump made it very difficult for Romney who was embarrassed because a major supporter was uttering such nonsense, but also because, although a small minority of “crazies”, the birthers were all activists in Romney’s Conservative Republican base and Romney was vigorously courting that base.
