All the warnings about the antichrist in fundamentalist churches, looking for signs, debating whether he is Putin, Obama, or whomever, and then not being able to recognize a perfectly fine candidate when he is standing right in front of them. I imagine people will be wondering about this for a long time hence.
Clergy have a duty to display courage by standing in solidarity with the bullied and oppressed - especially when the rest of the Church and the world lacks the courage to do so.
