Trump has finally made enough noise to wake some of the sleepers up.

The latest lame excuse from leaders of the Christian Right for still supporting Donald Trump, following the revelation of his serial molestations, is that the Lord has long used flawed individuals to do his work. The Biblical example cited was King David and his 5,000 concubines. Mysterious ways.

But there are signs that there are evangelical Christians who have reached the lower limits of how far they'll go to get a Republican into the White House. For example, a student group at Liberty University has announced it wants nothing to do with Donald Trump.

It is nice to see that there is a limit to how far Republicans can plummet. The party has been in moral and intellectual decline since Newt Gingrich came on the scene, at least, despite his pretense of scholarliness.

I have really been amazed that Sarah Palin, the Tea Party, Michele Bachmann, and Ted Cruz, and so many others were not the end of it. Every day seems to have found the hole getting deeper for several years now.

I am not expecting everybody to smarten up over night, but I would like to think that the candidacy of Donald Trump is enough of a jolt to cause a "What have we done?" response.
