Following the uproar over Donald Trump’s lewd comments about women made in 2005, and his subsequent apology, Dr. Alveda King penned an op-ed for WorldNetDaily in which she suggests he’s not the only one who should be apologizing.
“Apology is often the first step in correcting a wrong,” she said. “Having moved from a position of saying, ‘I don’t need forgiveness,’ Mr. Trump is now taking a second look at past behaviors; things that he’s said and done that he regrets. While he is not asking for forgiveness for being human, he is admitting that he’s made mistakes and humbly making apologies. …
“In apologizing for and correcting mistakes, boldly doing so before the entire world, Mr. Trump says he’s making the sacrifice for his children and grandchildren. That’s what’s at stake here folks; life now and forever. There is so much to lose, so much to gain for America’s children and grandchildren …
“While writing, saying and doing much, Mr. Trump is apologizing for his past sins. He’s walking away from supporting abortion, hurling insults and more. Now, America needs to follow suit and apologize for the scourge of legal abortion that has left millions of empty cradles, wombs barren, women’s health damaged and families broken. As Americans, we all need to follow Mr. Trump’s lead and ask God for forgiveness for the sins of our nation and, yes, for ourselves.”
