The article being discussed can be found here.
Trump has been losing support of evangelicals quickly after the leaking of the Access Hollywood tape. This article (collection of articles?) says "not all of us are like this!" when talking about the Trump phenomenon. While I think this is true, evangelicals lean overwhelmingly to the right, and some even could be considered far-right. While the article says they can't support him because of his comments on women, my question is, why is it all of a sudden you stop supporting Trump after he insults your wife, sister, or daughter? While this article tries to pin it on Trump's raging crusade for the Presidency, hurtling over practically weekly scandal leaks, I think it is also, to some degree, the fact that white women are being attacked now, not Muslims, African-Americans, or another racial or ethnic minority.
Not that I disagree with your fundamental point, but this doesn't really fit in with the blog assignment because it is not a news media critique, a response to a class discussion, or a response to a classmate's blog.
