Here's what I guess was in the NatEnquirer vault that has Trump up late at night

Evidence that he paid for an abortion.

The one thing that will hemorrhage support in the evangelical community.

excuse they need to bail on him. They abandon him after the mid-terms and after the dems take over the house. They still get their tax cuts, they get Kavanaugh who has been rammed through, Pence ( who is their real darling) takes over, and deVos stays in to finish dismantling public ed. So the Evangelical base gets to take a "stand" while at the same time jettisoning someone who is more and more a liability. Oh, and since it is the dems running the house, come 2020, the Rs get to blame everything on the dems. And they control the SCOTUS.

This ^^

Many thuglicans will give him infinity Mulligans.

A friend I spoke to just last night told me that her that her tRumputin-lovin' Auntie & uncle-in-law in Iowa don't care about anything tRump does, and they don't care that he's a treasonous, racist, evil, hateful, dumb-ass hog. Just so long as he appoints a SCOTUS who will help to overturn Roe v Wade in total even in cases of incest, rape or even in the case of the life of the mother. Her Aunt & uncle she said have always been conservative, but they're now hard-core crazies.

My friend calls her tRump-lovin', Evangelical relatives totally insane, Handmaiden Tools who she never intends to speak to again. She's not spoken to them since 2016. They're in their late 70's, and the ONLY people left on her Mother's side of the family.

Trump is the furthest thing from an example of Christianity that I’ve ever seen. He is vile, amoral, greedy, foul-mouthed, and on and on and on. It boggles the mind that the religious holy-rollers just love him. I can’t wrap my head around that no matter how hard I try. There are none so blind as those who will not see, I guess.

They either don't care about or don't understand what Jesus was actually about (feeding the poor; loving your neighbor; helping refugees; caring for the sick).

They just belong to a subculture that has been brainwashed since birth to be useful idiots for the establishment.

it is a big fail. Watch him some time when heads are SUPPOSED to be bowed for prayer. He can’t do it. He closes his eyes briefly then opens those beady pig eyes and starts looking around, spying on who else has their head bowed. If there is a god who tosses lightning bolts down on those who deserve it needs to save an extra big one for tRump. Vaporize him on the spot and let him serve as a warning to anyone else who acts like tRump.

Every time I see a pic of him “praying” or surrounded by that bunch of crazies who lay their hands on him to pray, he always looks SO uncomfortable, and he doesn’t know what to do with his hands. If he’s ever really been in a church when there weren’t a bunch of cameras there, I’ll eat my dirty socks. Can anyone imagine him comforting someone after a tragedy? I can’t- I don’t think he’s capable of doing that.

Murder? The guy had it coming, and really it isn't THAT big a deal...
Porn? Yawn...
Helping cover up Catholic priests' deeds? he was protecting the church....
pee-pee? no one cares unless he is filmed drinking the cup from the viral video...

Trump is a racist, misogynistic, lying bigot and subhuman piece of shit and they DO NOT CARE....nothing else will move the needle...

because only evidence that he is a rapist and pedophile would be enough to bring him down. It is quite possible that he has paid hush money to an accuser who was underage and that he arranged for a potential story to be silenced.
