I don’t know any evangelicals or Christians of any kind who have never asked God for forgiveness.

This is possibly the nuttiest of the odd things Trump has said. But maybe he means no harm, just brash NYC talk.

[mac_truck]

in all fairness, to the best of my knowledge, not too many evangelicals come out of Cuba, okay?

Trump is correct...Rafael Cruz wasn't born again until years after he left Cuba.

Like the WashPo is really concerned about this. If Ted gets the nomination, I can guarantee you that WashPo will use his religion as a way of trying to disqualify him.

[cripplecreek]

Not too many constitutional conservatives come out of NY.

[Kartographer]

Many of Trump supporters on FR agree with Trump. Just get on any Cruz thread and you will see.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

To the best of my knowledge, no evangelicals have ever come out of Mrs. Fred Trump, okay?

You’ll get a few dozen posts here from Trumpettes to the effect that “It’s a Donald thing. You wouldn’t understand.”

“Corinthians? They’re fine people, wonderful people, make a tremendous leather product. My home in Malibu is covered in it.” #TrumpBible
heh
Go Trump!

[HarleyLady27]

He wasn’t questioning Ted Cruz’s religion...Ted Cruz was born in Canada remember???

He was questioning Ted’s father’s religion, and they are mostly Catholic in Cuba...

I thought it was a silly statement by Trump, but perhaps it was so he could pretend to have “attacked” Cruz too without doing any real harm to the candidate closest to the positions he is advocating. I don’t hold the comment against either Trump or Cruz.

[Mamzelle]

And we know how much Janell cares...

[Enduro Guy]

I used to wonder in the back of my mind why he said that, then I realized that he most likely knows exactly what he’s doing. I’m just waiting for it...

Can anything good come out of Nazareth?

[Georgia Girl 2]

What Trump meant is that most Cubans are Catholic. Its not like Cruz comes from an evangelical background of generations. That is what Trump was talking about.
