Phil Robertson On Abortion, ISIS And His Dream Of Being Donald Trump’s Spiritual Advisor

Religious Right activist and Colorado state lawmaker Gordon Klingenschmitt had a chance to interview Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson at the Western Conservative Summit held in Denver earlier this month. On a recent episode of his “Pray In Jesus Name” program, Klingenschmitt sat down with Robertson, who shared his wisdom on the tie between legal abortion and ISIS and revealed his fantasy that Donald Trump will turn to Christ with the help of his spiritual advisor, Phil Robertson.

Robertson kicked things off by warning that the world is descending into lawlessness, which can all be linked back to the legalization of abortion.

“We’ve killed 60 million of our own children,” he said. “ISIS is saying to us, ‘Well, if you didn’t think your own children were worth anything, why do you think we’re worried about what your life is worth? We don’t think you’re worth anything, that’s why we’re killing you. Just like you kill your children, that’s why we kill you. We don’t think you’re worth anything.'”

“If we could have stood there and told them, ‘No, to us life is precious,'” Robertson said, then things would be different, but sadly “we lost the moral high ground.”

Later, Robertson said that he would be voting for Donald Trump in November only because he doesn’t like Hillary Clinton and hopes that Trump will be better. 

Ideally, Robertson said, “we convert Mr. Trump” to Christianity so that all of his past scandals and indiscretions that will be brought up during the campaign will be rendered moot because he has been born again.

“If he but be born again, he could then tell them, ‘That’s the old me, I’ve been born again, this is the new Donald Trump,'” Robertson said, envisioning a cabinet meeting where he would be introduced to the world as President Trump’s spiritual advisor.

“Now, that would send a shock wave through America,” he said. “The left-wingers would be jumping out of buildings.”
