<p><strong>God, not Trump,</strong></p><p><strong>turned election</strong></p><p>How on earth did Donald Trump turn the election on its head?</p><p>He didn&#8217;t. You read that right. He didn&#8217;t. God did!</p><p>Donald Trump is pro-life and will protect life from conception to natural death. He is obeying the Fifth Commandment, &#8220;Thou shalt not kill.&#8221; My wife and I voted for Trump and pray that we and millions of others have saved the lives of more than one million tiny infant human beings, who are God&#8217;s children.</p><p>Donald Trump has many faults and speaks harshly sometimes, as we all do, and many times with good reason. But, as Jesus said to the crowd ready to stone a woman to death after being accused of adultery, &#8220;He that is without sin among you, let him cast a stone at her.&#8221;</p><p>God created the world out of nothing. How minuscule a task would it be for Him to control an election?</p><p>St. Mother Teresa said it best: &#8220;Who will speak for the little ones?&#8221; We have spoken for &#8220;the little ones.&#8221;</p><p>We see the people that our new president is choosing for his Cabinet and those who will be working with him. They appear to be God-loving and moral-abiding citizens who value human life more than politics.</p><p>The new president, his staff, the House and Senate have a difficult four years ahead of them. We should not stand in the crowd and cast stones at them. We must work together, finally wake up and obey God&#8217;s Ten Commandments.</p><p>We and the media should not spend the next four years criticizing, ridiculing and making humorous degrading remarks about those who have been elected to office. Use your energy and your talents and your voice to help the new president &#8220;MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!&#8221;</p><p>God bless our new president, and God bless America!</p><p>I wrote and approved this message.</p><p><strong>John J.
