i know all about Gerson, and I really like him. I own his book Compassionate Conservatism, and read it cover to cover, and I found it very moving. But Gerson being an evangelical, isn't proof that Jordan is a bigot. Is it?

Pete, I will vote for Trump. One of the many reasons why, is that the evidence is very clear, that despite Trumps vulgar tweets, more blacks will get lifted out of poverty with Trumps policies, than the policies of any of the democratic candidates. I am certain that's the case, the empirical evidence is pretty compelling. Does that make me racist?

Now please share some proof, any proof, that Jordan is a bigot? Nothing on Gerson's resume is proof that Jim Jordan is a bigot. Gerson might have been valedictorian of his high school, that doesn't mean Jim Jordan is a bigot.

Your "evidence" was Gerson's accusation, and the words of some other nut who happened to like the accusation. Somehow to you, that's evidence.
