Please cite the exact quote where Trump said what you allege.
Jeremiah Johnson. The mountain man?
Outstanding, hit the mark... I salute your wit!

“” Trump replied, “I’m not sure I have ever asked God’s forgiveness. I don’t bring God into that picture.”
Trump clarified further about forgiveness in the church setting saying, “When I go to church and when I drink my little wine and have my little cracker, I guess that is a form of forgiveness. I do that as often as I can because I feel cleansed. I say let’s go on and let’s make it right,” declared Trump””
;;;;
like divorcing your wife for a porn star is “making it right”
I have not seen where Trump said he just forgives himself. But he did say he does not ask God for forgiveness.
It was in the same interview/event where Trump said, "When we go into church and when I drink my little wine, which is about the only wine I drink, and have my little cracker I guess that is a form of asking for forgiveness. I do that as often as possible because I feel cleansed, OK?"
Wow.
I’m a born-again Spirit-filled believer and have wondered sometimes why I love Trump so much. I don’t agree with his tariff economic “solutions” and wonder about his stand on certain other things, but Trump is a weapon in the culture war as much as the political war. His hatred of and attack on political correctness (the disguised spirit of anti-Christ) is a welcome relief.
You know, God can use anyone. The lesson in Daniel is God, not man, raises up and takes down kings and kingdoms. God used Nebuchadnezzar BEFORE Nebuchadnezzar came to believe. I believe Trump in the same way will become a believer (but I hope he doesn’t have to go insane to get there).
There was an article a few weeks back about this topic: http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/18/politics/trump-has-never-sought-forgiveness/
The exact comment that people refer to was this bit:
Moderator Frank Luntz asked Trump whether he has ever asked God for forgiveness for his actions. "I am not sure I have. I just go on and try to do a better job from there. I don't think so," he said. "I think if I do something wrong, I think, I just try and make it right. I don't bring God into that picture. I don't."
Yeah, cause Trump's big message is help for the foreigner. LOL
people have given up their views on abortion so they could remain devoted to trump. people have given up their views on gay marriage so they could remain devoted to trump. people have given up their views on gun control so they could remain devoted to trump. denying God so they could remain devoted to donald trump is simply the next link in the chain
God cannot be too pleased with US if He is picking our presidents. But I do have to smile over this ‘trump’ analogy given how Trump is ticking off all the bad people. Thing of it is there are 7 trumps, wonder which trump, Trump is suppose to sound?
this is hilarious. Look for the goober Huckster to step up his hype soon, for fear of not being able to pull the Evangelical vote away to win South Carolina for Bush, as he did with McCain.
Except he didn’t say he forgives himself.
Problem is not WND, it is Jeremiah Johnson -—
“for he possesses qualities that are even hard to find in My people these days.”
I guess JJ means desirable qualities that Christians are lacking. Disagree. Christians generally will not be bombastic .... But many agree with Trump’s true statements: Border is a joke, Mexico sends rapists, China is beating us, PC is killing us, etc.
Trump has money and a podium. Most of God’s people do not.
Some TV preachers do, but you notice I did not call them God’s people.
