I find it rude of you to make that accusation. It was heartfelt advice about forgiveness. You may not find the need for forgiveness, but many of us do. It isn't just about a different view or opinion. Where were you for the campaign? Did you not see and hear all of the deplorable things tRump said and did? Yes, forgiveness is appropriate for those of us that wish to continue relationships with those that voted for someone so dishonorable and detestable.
