Frankly, I think Trump is far more of a true Christian than some wish to believe. Look at his personal habits and his children. No drugs, no alcohol, no smoking. He lives what he preaches and his children are not drowning in scandal as so many other children of celebrities and celebrities themselves are. His private beliefs are his alone. Presbyterians don’t go around shouting about salvation nor wearing their religion on their sleeve. Some religions do, but Presbyterians pretty closely adhere to living with kindness and dispensing goodness. Trump has been doing that for many many years. Considering how Cruz uses his Christianity to win votes, I like Trump’s style better...but maybe it’s because I’m a Presbyterian too and so I understand his reticence about parading religion as a campaign factor. He helps people who need help. Who has Cruz helped but himself?
Who has Cruz helped but himself?...
So far I haven’t found anybody saying he has helped them. I have looked.

The world is in very bad shape. If one can't call on Jesus, who can they call on?
As far as Trump's personal habits, did you know he was cheating on his first wife with his second wife-to-be, or was it he was cheating on his second wife with his third wife-to-be? And to my knowledge he has not yet asked forgiveness for these [not-so-godly] actions. In fact, in was in July, that the following was published regarding Trump: "I am not sure I have [asked God for forgiveness for my actions]. I just go on and try to do a better job from there... 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."

Is this a Presbyterian belief?
And I'm not sure who Cruz has helped. Like I mentioned, Bobby Jindal was our guy [and he's helped plenty], but I'm learning more about Cruz as time goes on.
