There must also be repentance.

That is part of the Christian Faith to be sure, but it isn't constant in most Christians, as you cannot really sin and repent at the same time. Granted, Trump didn't sound too repentant when asked about it, but Repentance is often a very personal thing, and we are more or less obliged to be charitable in characterizing other people on this matter.

"as you cannot really sin and repent at the same time."

Not sure what you mean here. Certainly one cannot be sincerely repentant and continue to live in sin. But, even the most repentant will still commit sins. This is why repentance is a continuous process, not a one time act.

So you are saying Trump is still sinning? He's had two divorces and slept with more, yet there is NO repentance.
