    Of course not. To do so is rather delusional. Trumps arrogance and attitudes of superiority knows no limit.

    And now he's a bible salesman, competing with Christianity Advocates like Gideons International, who try to spread the word of God to disavantaged people around the world for FREE!

    DJT has already done that. It's called The Art of the Deal.
    He should credit Jesus as the ghostwriter for the next edition.

    His followers have lost touch with reality. Jesus went through immense suffering. Trump is still walking free, but I doubt they see the difference because any charge against Trump is viewed as a sin against humanity.

    DJT has managed to troll his DP/RP opposition into a rabid frenzy of election cycle persecution that will allow him to get away with such comparisons.
    The DP/RP should have hired new strategists after the Trump win in 2016.

    Beyond that, I doubt that many of Trump's Christian supporters are basing their support on belief in the sincerity of his statements about religion.
    IOW, you may be preaching to a very small choir. ;-)

    Yes, DJT, like God Almighty, or Anne of Green Gables, is clearly one of a kind. ;-)

    “I did make a mistake in judging Anne, but it weren't no wonder, for an odder, unexpecteder witch of a child there never was in this world, that's what. There was no ciphering her out by the rules that worked with other children. It's nothing short of wonderful how she's improved these three years, but especially in looks. She's a real pretty girl got to be, though I can't say I'm overly partial to that pale, big-eyed style myself. I like more snap and color, like Diana Barry or Ruby Gillis. Ruby Gillis' looks are real showy. But somehow- I don't know how it is but when Anne and them are together, though she ain't half as handsome, she makes them look kind of common and overdone- something like them white June lilies she calls narcissus alongside of the big, red peonies, that's what.” L. M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

    If American Christians wants to support Trump for his policy and not his faith or lack of faith, I have no problem with that.

    But if someone claim he/s is Christian and then hearing trump says “ I never asked God for forgiveness” , yet they say “ Trump is Christian”, I question if they themselves are Christian.

    Christan can debate lot a things, lot a doctrine .. but one simple fact in Christianity regardless which denomination he/s is– “all have sin and need forgiveness from God” . Entire Christianity is based on this principle. There is no “if or But, “.

    Virtually no one still relies on politicians to tell the truth about anything. I doubt that many Christians who vote for Trump intend to elect a Pope.

    The link you posted here. Most of these Christians don’t even know Bible. Here is one of the post.

    upload_2024-3-28_14-58-40.png
    This poster is right. one doesn’t have to go to church to be Christian. but one must ask God’s forgiveness . without this simple fact one can’t be Christian.

    Hiding behind “ it’s between him and God”. doesn’t work. Again they don’t know Bible. They may go to church 3 times a week but they don’t know Bible.

    Jesus says “but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.”

    You can’t accept Jesus Christ as persona savior if you never asked God for forgiveness. You can’t claim you are Christian and then when asked what is your favorite Bible verse you say “ it’s too Personal”. Is he ashamed of Jesus ? you know what Jesus will say “ I never knew you , depart from me”.

    MAGA never read Bible so they have no idea if trump is Christian or not. I wonder if they are Christian themselves.

    Then 89% of all Christians are not really Christians if that is the standard.

    "Americans Are Fond of the Bible, Don't Actually Read It"

    "That includes 11 percent who’ve read the entire Bible once..."

    https://research.lifeway.com/2017/0...-are-fond-of-the-bible-dont-actually-read-it/

    IOW attacks on Trump for not being a good Christian will probably only expand his support within the atheist and other non- Christian community.

    why would Trump ask for any forgiveness, when in HIS mind he has done NOTHING wrong.???

    OTOH............ it might be that God/ Jesus have a compassionate view for people who are mentally dysfunctional. delusional.............as they don't KNOW any better. or can't see the errors of their actions or how hurtful they have been to others. Trump HAS hurt a LOT of people with his selfish actions and horrible words. But in HIS mind, he is entitled t o behave any way he wants.......without restrictions.......so he fights the law on that basis. Just imagine how much money he has spent on legal fees through the years. Money that could have made him the rich man he believes to be. Lest we forget GREED is not looked on favorably in TRUE Xtianity. or higher level of spirituality. Nor is lying to the degree that he does. (to himself as well as his "subjects")

    well .. Jesus already talked about these so-called Christian


    Matthew 7:21-23

    I Never Knew You
    21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

    DJT already has the support of most of these "demons/unChristians".
    Quoting the Bible to literally demonize Trump's opposition will probably just tempt more atheists and agnostics to vote for him.

    Nevertheless, your biblical research deserves at least an E for effort. :)

    Research and thoughtful resistance may not trump Trump, but it is better than focusing on past defeats in despair, screaming at the sky or forecasting imminent doom like so may Chicken Littles these days.

    “[T]he Trump show is coming back on, to every television screen near you, no matter what channel you want to tune in to. The problem is that Season 2—or whatever season we are in at this point—is going to be much worse in so many key ways compared to the last one. The last one had the element of surprise, which kept things shocking for a while in a way that was honestly a bit distracting and roller coaster-y, like when a detective show gives you the cliffhanger just before it streams right through to the next episode.”

    “Oh my god, right, I thought, watching Michael Avenatti’s rise to fame. We were just desperately looking for someone—literally anyone—to save us. For a while, sure, it felt convincing that a brash lawyer who loved the spotlight as much as Donald Trump does might be that person”

    But Donald Trump is coming back—and when he does, he will give us something to be mad about every stupid day. And we won’t be able to turn it off, because once again, he’ll be the star of the show.”

    Slate should know that it is too early to give up.

    That is the title of the Trump Campaign's strategy book.
    It was supposed to be Top Secret. ;-)

    Absolutely NOT. That would only make him the martyr he believes he is. Many i n his base alrady believe he has the magical qualities of a deity.
    This is quite a phenomena that we all are lving through now because of this shyster.

    Jesus was crucified. Maybe doing that to Trump might not be a good idea.

    I definitely believe that "Asking Forgiveness" is central to being a Christian. This is what confession is all about.

    Although there may be some professed Christians who aren't really Christians, I don't think the number is 89%. I think it would be a much smaller percentage. Although the method may vary, most Christian churches have some form of confession. Now once out of confession, most of us go about our daily sin.

    Now Now -- let us not put kkkart before horse here .. I realize that some out there may view Trump as some kind of Savior but, he is not the anointed one of the Gods ya hear ! Sure he has been anointed by the "gods" of the earth - but the latter is not the same kind of Gods as the former lest we get ahead of ourselves here.

    Now where I hear people get really mixed up is in thinking that Putin is one of the gods .. not understanding that the Pay to Play system in Washington is owned and operated by "The Beast" .. and while Putin may be a monster .. he ain't one of the Beasts.

    Now lets get our Bible History correct here .. not go out misinterpreting passages like you some sage or something .. the identity of the "greatest persecutor" is the True Blue Cancel Crew Clown Show TBCCCS .. Poor Trumper .. these fascist collectivist tyrants know no sleep when it comes to dealing with the TDS .. got it bad .. will do anything .. Ends Justify the Means -- Genocide to scratch that itch.

    Never we seen something so pathetic and evil a parasite as this one I tell you friends .. these are not the anointed one's they pretend to be.
