Jerry Falwell Jr. Insults Founding Fathers To Defend Trump’s Jerky Behavior

The Liberty University president’s comments about Donald Trump didn’t go over too well on Twitter.

Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. just came up with a truly bizarre defense of President Donald Trump’s rude behavior ― and all he had to do was blame Founding Fathers like Thomas Jefferson and George Washington.

On Thursday, Falwell attempted to justify Trump’s rudeness in a tweet that suggested the Founding Fathers wanted people like him in the White House.

 We have been duped into viewing politicians as royalty when our Founders intended them to be only temp public servants. Complaints @realDonaldTrump is not “presidential” are because he acts like one of us-exactly why our Founders fought in Rev War to win independence from royalty

Excuse me? Speak for yourself, Jerry.

I don't act like Donald Trump. 
My parents and grandparents didn't act like Donald Trump.
My wife doesn't act like Donald Trump.

And,,,,, if my kids ever acted like that adulterous, racist, sexual assaulting, foul mouthed man, I would disown them!
