Ha! No, this “live one” is signing off this thread, I’m just kicking myself because I did not realize Mr. Trump was attending PCUSA. It has definitely abandoned anything recognizably Biblical and is preaching ‘another gospel’ these days. I will not support any candidate who belongs to a pro-terrorist outfit, no matter that it still dares call itself a ‘church’....

ObozomustGo2016! (no Hillary, no members of pro-terrorist organizations either!)

You weren’t even for Trump to begin with so save your fake outrage for people who would actually fall for it.

As a child, Trump attended Marble Collegiate Church, a Reformed church (similar theologically to Presbyterians but with roots in the Netherlands rather than Scotland). It was and still is affiliated with the Reformed Church in America, the most liberal of the American Reformed denominations. The pastor at that time was Norman Vincent Peale, a celebrity pastor in post World War II New York. He was not an evangelical but he was also not a liberal on the order of William Sloane Coffin or Paul Tillich. He was most known for preaching a positive thinking message, not unlike Joel Osteen in our time. This was the religious background in which Trump was raised. He is amazingly tone deaf to the preferences of evangelicals, as evidenced by his attending a pro-pervert church. I don't think that even Hillary Clinton is as clueless. Bill is certainly not clueless.

Trump could use some coaching in this matter. John Kennedy, a Catholic in an era of more prejudice than is the case now, deftly handled his relations with Protestant clergy and laity.
