German Cardinal Gerhard Müller said many prelates privately support Donald Trump but fear speaking out...

The problem with the Church in a nutshell... those who are supposed to teach and preach the truth are afraid of the truth.

“Trump ain’t even that good a Protestant”

Joe Biden’s Catholicism was a very low bar.

I don’t care if Trump isn’t a Christian. I think he’s probably a deist with a pro Christian cultural attitude, and that’s good enough for me.

when Roman Catholics, and Protesting Catholic denominations begin to wholeheartedly embrace and seek to live and obey the KNOWN commands and expectations of Holy God... Evil and wickedness in this nation will be evicted by Holy God from our Nation.

Melania is the RC in the family so there is that. Granted in her book she said she supports the right to choose abortion so it seems a lot of so called Catholics don’t exactly follow the basics.

Exactly. Hillary claims to be a Methodist too, not to mention Obama’s membership in Rev Wright’s personality cult.

I don’t see Trump as being a devoted Presbyterian.

He is at best a nominal Christian. He’s still better than Biden

“”””I don’t see Trump as being a devoted Presbyterian.””””

Trump isn’t a Presbyterian, a few years ago he embraced Christianity and now describes himself as a non-denominational Christian.

The Cardinal puts a new spin on Luther’s remark regarding princes:

“Better a wise Turk than a Christian fool”.
