Donald Trump said Saturday that "I am not sure that I have" ever asked God for forgiveness, telling the 2015 Iowa Family Leadership Summit that "I just go on and try to do a better job from there.
"I don't think so," Trump, who is Presbyterian, said in response to the question from pollster and summit host Frank Luntz. Trump was among 10 Republican presidential candidates at the daylong event in Ames, Iowa.

Wow....Donald sounds just like you and I, normal everyday American people...go to church, ask God for forgiveness, talks just like 90% of the American people...
Guess there are those who think he’s not good enough to run for the office of the POTUS...must think that someone like what’s in there is the best we can do...
I watched the whole video of Trump last night. Maybe some other folks might do the same thing.
This one actually makes me mad.
Again - totally out of context.
Would you prefer him to lie? It would be quite easy for him to do. He could lie and say all the things that people want to hear - just like the politicians do. Pander, get what he wants, then backstab us once he gets into office - just like the politicians do.
He said that he corrects himself - not that he never makes mistakes. It’s in the article that you cited. Why don’t you read it?
In the speech, he actually took responsibility for his failed marriages. BIG TIME.
lol
Isn’t Trumps talent on loan from god.
“Frank Luntz is a putz.”
I never liked Luntz, but this time, as he talked, I kept thinking putz.
Then he walked off stage, and I thought clown.
Who in their right mind would wear shoes like that?
A social conservative, that Donald Trump. Just ask him.
“I guess the same could be said for Soetoro.”
Absolutely.
Admirable./S
It’s worth noting Trump is the guy who was recently yelling on Twitter about kicking someone’s a##.
Also, in 2006 during an appearance on “The View” he remarked on his daughter’s nice figure and said he would probably be dating her if he wasn’t her father.
This is the guy, the statesman that Christian conservatives want to head this country?
Maybe in your world.
Welcome to FR.
Actually it's been discussed quite a bit...but folks who are head over heels in love with Trump seem to have selective vision going on.
Not the point. I don't want him to lie. I also don't want someone of his caliber as president.
Trump didn't say he's perfect or never screws up. He said he tries to do better.
A bigger question to me is, does Luntz try to influence his polling groups results?
I know two like him, one of whom plays tennis with Bill Gates.
He did mention the forgiveness in communion.
I like that he says he goes out and tries and fix it. How many do that?
Acquire sight picture...
FIRE!
...now, place foot in mouth...
Notice Nick ain’t saying a word about it... again.
You spend an awful lot of effort bashing someone who has a “0% chance.” LOL.
