Choices. and to suggest that we no longer have that free will or responsibility is deeply immoral and is not christian. and i think its important, and i hope that those who are supporting trump will reconsider that, because i think it is both harmful to the republican party, its harmful to christianity, and frankly, its harmful to the souls of those who follow that perversion. >> so last night there was a judge who said we need to recognize the constitution and the three equal branches of govern...
