He makes some good points. The GOP since Obama's inauguration has done nothing but obstruct his every policy. Even more importantly, they are the one's who have fed the lies about Obama not being an American, or that he is a Muslim, or that he wants to take away everyone's guns, and on and on. So of course good, hard-working Americans see nothing getting done in government and blame everyone therein, including Republicans. So they want an outsider like Trump that feeds the same fears the GOP created, like racism, xenophobia, bigotry etc.
And they also twisted the narrative that since we're all guilty of sin we should not only be forgiven but that the nefarious acts we committed, and continue to commit, should not be taken into account in electing public officials. That is not the Christian doctrine, which indeed forgives the person but not the deplorable action. And if that person continues to commit such acts, while it doesn't prevent them from forgiveness if they sincerely repent, it also doesn't promote them to a high position in the Church, let alone the Presidency. Or that they must answer to the law for their transgressions.
