New Testament
“Then he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and entering in they dwell there. And the last state of that man becomes worse than the first.”
The passage discusses spiritual wickedness and does not relate to the political interview.
“And the scribes and the Pharisees, seeing that he ate with publicans and sinners, said to his disiples: Why doth your master eat and drink with publicans and sinners?”
The passage addresses criticism of Jesus' association with sinners, which is not applicable to the candidates' interview conduct.
