Trump on His Favorite Bible Verse: ‘That’s Personal’
Breitbart TV ^ | 8/26/15 | Pam Key

Posted on 08/26/2015 6:12:49 PM PDT by markomalley

Wednesday on Bloomberg TV’s “With All Due Respect,” host Mark Halperin and John Heilemann asked Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump what his favorite Bible verse is.

Trump has said many times on the campaign trail the Bible is his favorite book.

Heilemann asked, “You mentioned the Bible and talked about how it was your favorite book and you said, I think last night on in Iowa, some people are surprised you say that. I am wondering what one or two of your most favorite Bible verses are and why?”

Trump answered, “I wouldn’t want to get into it because to me that’s very personal. You know when I talk about the Bible it’s very personal.I don’t want to get into it.”

Heilemann asked, “There no verse that means a lot to you that you think about about or cite?”

Could he name ANY Bible verse? Any book of the Bible? Can he name one of the two Testaments? Does he think the Bible was written by elves?

He thinks John 3:16 is a Nielsen rating.

Did he ever mention the Bible at all before “running for president?”

lol

I would bet dollars to donuts that Trump hasn't read a single book of the bible.

His claim recently that the bible is his favorite book was nothing but shameful pandering.

I thought it was odd that he mentioned the Bible several times. I assume he did that only 1) because he was in Iowa, 2) he was trying to make up for his comment about not seeking forgiveness from God.

Trump probably cannot name any verse from the Bible. He claims his parents took him to Norman Vincent Peale’s church when he was a child. He has probably not set foot inside any church since he was in his teens because he is a non-believe who acts as if God does not exist.

Trump got “Paris Hilton’d”

But this is the most honest, trustyworthy guy in the whole wide world and just Dammit, none of what he says really matters, it’s how it makes me feel! /sarc (unless you’re a Trump supporter then that’s actually true).

A very appropriate response to a religion hostile media

Aren’t there bigger issues to talk about than a candidate’s religion?
Oh wait, asking another question not to get an answer but to score a zinger.

Trump is a Presbyterian.
Enough said.

I'm a Bible first person, too....but I couldn't give you one line....because life is the lessons of the bible..."not quoting passages".

My Rosary is my best friend.

Aren't you a Catholic? You should do something about your Marxist Pope before you complain about other people.

The President isn't Pastor in Chief.

No, but having a favorite verse is.
