Piper? Who in life is most precious to you? Your grandchildren? Let’s say someone was holding them hostage and was preparing to kill them. A police officer is going in to free them, but, alas, the cop had a checkered history of philandering. What would you do? Would you say that because laws regarding life are not as “precious” as being a “certain kind of person” you’d drive the cop away? Of course not. It is for this reason that prolifer’s hold you in such low regard.
“Christians communicate a falsehood to unbelievers when we act as if policies and laws that protect life and freedom are more precious than being a certain kind of person.” --John Piper, 10-22-2020

It seems Trump is more precious to you than Jesus.

You're a slave of man, not God.

4:17-25
" 17 Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and born Enoch.
When he built a city, he called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch.
18 To Enoch was born Irad, and
Irad fathered Mehujael, and Mehujael fathered Methushael, and Methushael fathered Lamech.
19 And Lamech took two wives. The name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
20 Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.
21 His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe.
21 Zillah also bore Tubal- cain; he was the forger of all instructments of bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal- cain was Naamah.
23 Lamech said to his wives:
" Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;
you wives of Lamech, listen to what I say:
I have killed a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.
24 If Cain's revenge is sevenfold, then Lamech's is seventy- sevenfold."
25 And Adam knew( make love) his wife again, she bore a son and called his name Seth, for she said, " God has appointed for me another offerspring instead of Abel, for cain killed him."
26 To Seth also a son was born, and he called his name Enosh. At that time people began to call upon the name of the LORD."( Genesis 4:17-26 ESV)
