Letter: LDS support for Trump may be a deal-breaker

Disclaimer: I'm an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I'm a pretty liberal Democrat. I've had a member of the church tell me I can't be a Mormon and a Democrat. We no longer speak. I have tried to keep my religion and my politics separate.

But. It is no longer politics when we have a president who is a racist, a white supremacist, a misogynist, so narcissistic it should be illegal, a pathological liar, a xenophobe, incurious, semi-literate and vindictive.

Do any of those words apply to a Christian? Don't we members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints want to be considered Christian?
