Reagan was no big religious guy, eh? Let’s see Trump write something like this:

You don’t get it. You keep attacking believers as if they’re looking for a “preacher in chief”. That’s not the point. The point is the principles that are essential to proper leadership. George Washington’s Farewell address (which use to be required reading in schools but has been removed for it’s religious connotations concerning the relationship between Christ and morality).
Trump thinks “going through the motions” equivalates to being a Protestant. It does not. If he understood the Gospel, he would be asking for forgiveness everyday like all believers in Christ do.
Your posts are refreshing and full of truth.
Even Presbyterians say "Our Father...."
So what??? Trump doesn't have to be a Christian for God to use him...Ask God to give you the opportunity to tell Trump the truth...
How in the he** do you even pretend to know what Trump thinks? And, who are you, Miss Pharisee to thump your chest and proclaim yourself to be the better Christian? Jesus despised people like you - yes he did. I seriously doubt that if I were Trump that I would tell the entireworld what I talked to God about. FOr that matter, let’s hear what St. Cruz asks God’s forgiveness for? Crickets - eh? You should take the beam out of your own eye before trying to remove the toothpick from someone elses. (words changed for clarity of meaning).
You said it, Brother FReeper. In my opinion, all one needs to see of Trump in action is this approx. 6-minute video. It tells you all you need to know. He is hot-headed and slow-thinking.
Slimeball traitor fellow Republican McCain attacks Trump, and Trump is presented with an opportunity to highlight the traitorous kind of Republican he stands against; instead, Trump attacks by mocking possibly the one honorable thing about McCain, his POW status. Essentially, McCain is a loser because he got captured and "I like people who weren't captured." And the audience laughs in admiration. Mocking every POW who lived or died in quest of "winning." Chilling and sickening. Especially since Trump took five deferments from the Viet Nam war!
Then when he's asked the lame, stupid question if he's ever asked God for forgiveness, a cool-thinking person like ANY of us here, would basically say, "Of course. Next question, and make it relevant to the issues, please?" Self-absorbed Trump spends the next minute or two basically saying, "Ask God for forgiveness? Not me! I do it differently!"
He's a sincere patriot, I believe that, I believe he is well intended. But he is out of his league. He's a good salesman and deal maker. In the White House, that will take things leftward, especially considering his 26-year party-switching past. He (re-)joined the Republican party right at the time it totally left me, in the era of McCain and Romney.
Trump is just a bad risk.
Did you ask for forgiveness today?
Just asking, because I did not see it or read about it.
Maybe you should have a vanity post each day, here, so I can see it and see that you actually do, every day.
Perhaps you do, over in the religion section, and I just miss it, because I do not read that every day.
I will be looking forward to your daily post.
