How do you feel about it. Should someone try to stop them from such atrocities? 

Theirs is the God of Abraham, before whom they--and you--shall have no other.

But moving from atrocities against schoolgirls in A-stan to nearer practices of patriarchal domination, what do you make of the growing resistance to Trump among Evangelical women?  They would to the last "man" insist that their relation with god is personal, but in practice it appears essentially mediated by husband and pastor. And apparently husbands and pastors have trouble seeing Trump's misogyny, or giving it much account.

Once you grant God chooses imperfect instruments (the reigning theodicy legitimating Trump's authority) to accomplish his will, who's to say one of those instruments can't be a Democrat?  How would Jesus sort out health care in the time of Trump? People leaning Democrat could find some Biblical support for single payer and other "socialist" remedies. How would Jesus sort out the separating of children from parents--and then losing the parents? Would he assume Democrats are only treating brown immigrants humanely to buy votes?
