What would you say to believers that are still struggling with Donald Trump because of his tweets, his bite-backs on people, some of his conduct, some of his language? asked host Perry Atkinson. What do you say?
I would tell them, Get over it,' Strang responded. I mean, what leader is perfect?
Donald Trump is not perfect, he doesnt pretend to be perfect, but what is he doing that is so terrible? Strang continued. I think that what happens is that people get a political mindset, they look at things from a certain political point of viewDemocrat or Republican, liberal or conservativeand then everything they see is through that filter. Our filter as Christians needs to be the word of God, its got to be Christian principles, those kinds of things. And on those kinds of things, nobody could be stronger than Donald Trump.

Really, Steve? Jesus would approve of getting spanked by a porn star with a Forbes Magazine?
