"Liberty" University President pulls anti-Trump column...
...from student newspaper.
Donald Trump is a stupid man's idea of a smart man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, and a weak man's idea of a strong man.

I guess now we know why a good Christian man like Jerry Falwell Jr. endorsed a godless heathen like Donald Trump.
Donald Trump is a stupid man's idea of a smart man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, and a weak man's idea of a strong man.

Wow....what a mess. There are so many open and unverified trash in that article. I was waiting for something to do with a “Falwell wife pee tape” for hoof to get wood over........this story seems right up his alley though.RiverguyVT wrote:Pics or it didn't happen
