Leading evangelist Rev. Franklin Graham is denying a rumor that he told hundreds of evangelical leaders who met with Donald Trump on Tuesday anything along the lines that the billionaire real estate mogul is a better option for president than presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
Following Trump's "conversation" with over 900 evangelical leaders in New York City, conservative Bishop E.W. Jackson of Virginia, who attended the closed-door meeting, told listeners on a conference call that Graham had implied that Trump provided more "hope" than Clinton. Jackson told The Christian Post in a follow-up interview that Graham did not go as far as to endorse Trump but suggested that Trump is a better alternative.
As Graham is touring all 50 state capitals this year to hold prayer rallies to encourage Christians to get involved in the political process, he has been adamant that he will not be endorsing any presidential candidates.
After reaching out to Graham for comment on Tuesday, he clarified to CP on Wednesday that he did not give a long address to the crowd but simply gave a short prayer. Although he offered about one minute of remarks, they did not include anything along the lines that Trump is preferred over Clinton.
According to a transcript from the event, Graham made no mention of Trump or Clinton.
Additionally, some contention was made over a suggestion that Graham had compared biblical leaders like Moses and David to Trump. However, Graham merely pointed out that the flaws and sins of biblical leaders like Moses, David and Abraham proves that no one is
perfect.
