Letter: Election filled with double standards

If Hillary Clinton had been caught laughingly boasting about how she could grab men's private parts and get away with it, she would have been crucified by the religious right as morally unfit for holding any office, let alone the presidency.
Donald Trump boasts how he can grope women's private parts and the evangelicals vote for him in droves. This is the ultimate double standard. This is the antithesis of what it means to be a Christian. This is hypocrisy with a capital 'H”. Whoever believes the travesty that recently occurred at the polls is making American Great Again is delusional.
