    Hillary Clinton is the professing Christian who does know the bible and yet is so pro abortion she supports abortion right up until birth. (I believe Clinton does know what the bible teaches because I have listened to her and she is well versed on bible teachings).

    Trump on the other hand said only a few years ago he was a Christian and then said he didn't need forgiveness of sins showing a complete lack  of knowledge and ignorance of what the bible teaches. 

    To Trump's credit Christians who have spoken with him say he is open to their teaching him so I have more hope for someone who is ignorant of the bible but open to being taught over someone well  versed in the bible yet doesn't follow the teachings they know about...

    Trump was pro choice for decades and supported pro choice Democrat candidates for years as well. Only when courting voters in the heartland during his presidential campaign did he suddenly have a change of heart on the issue.

    I know it takes a certain willingness to suspend disbelief in order to profess religious beliefs, but how many more bridges does Trump have to sell you for you to finally understand he's playing you and other Christian voters in order to secure a voting base?

    George Bush Sr. also flipped from pro choice to pro life to be the vice president of Reagan. I am always glad to see anyone change from pro choice to pro life regardless.

    Actions speak louder than words though. For decades after Reagan, Bush Sr. remained pro life and Trump thus far has gotten the reputation as being the most pro life president ever (that coming from his critics at Planned Parenthood).

    But you can't actually believe that Trump is sincere?  Which means he is lying.

    Trump's actions speak for themselves. He has been the most pro life president ever. Who has not been sincere have been many other professing pro life republicans.

    Trump is proving to be the most fearlessly pro-life president in history

    Hillary and Trump are the same. Their values only pertain to how they benefit them in the moment. They both lick their fingers and stick them in the air to gauge where the political wind is blowing and then construct their public persona accordingly. 

    You'll be amazed at Trump's fall from belief if he can't fight against the Democrats and decides to work with them instead.

    Sometimes I get the distinct impression that you are the political board's Colin Cowherd and Trump is your Sam Darnold. 

    Colin Calherd. Has a nice ring to it.

    only in that they are both human, and your higgardly stetches the "human being" part.

    How the hell is "lick their fingers..." applying to Trump? His demand for the wall? So you are saying all of America wants the wall?

    His stand against your illegally immigrated murders and rapists? You think all of America wants the illegals out of here:?

    There why do YOU support it?

    Either way, you got nothin, Jblew.

    well, you don't think well, because you are a slimed liberal cult member who only feels. You DON'T THINK. That's why you are wrong about so much of nearly everything.

    So, you FEEL that higgardly is Baker Mayfield?

    you are getting more ignorant every time one of us kicks your ass in a discussion.

    HINT: you make it easy to do.

    Okay Old, do you, in your heart, believe that Trump gives a flying fuck about pro-life, other than for politcal gain?  I don't.

  • @jbluhm86 said:

    You literally just described Trump and how he acts. And you still voted for him regardless.

    I believe the term "own goal" fits here.

    Hillary Clinton is the professing Christian who does know the bible and yet is so pro abortion she supports abortion right up until birth. (I believe Clinton does know what the bible teaches because I have listened to her and she is well versed on bible teachings).

    You're bragging that Trump has televangelists? Holy fuck really? People who make a living ripping off old people. Are you one of the morons that help them buying a few private jets to help spread the word? You think that is a positive for your war hero?

  • You cuntz used to hate him.

    WSS

  • It's amazing to me, that near the beginning of the election process, posters on here called out Trump as being a conman and realized what he was...

    Then, when he became their only option, they put party above all else (religious beliefs, etc) and voted for the guy. Now, they defend him at every turn, completely bought in to the con. The thing they actually knew from the beginning...

    Trump, like Hilary, said what they needed to say to get votes. If you think Trump gives two shits about Christianity you're crazy. He's just gonna say what he needs to so he can get your vote.

    We have a handful more elections where the candidate needs to kiss ass to Christians and pretend they care more than they do. Soon we'll be past it though as that group continues to fade away.

  • And god damn, you're 100% using "TDS" as your "Race Card". Much more than any liberal actually used it. Any criticism of Trump is now "nope, that doesn't count, TDS. La la la I can't hear you"

    Right as you're describing how bad it is to be a fake Christian and not even realizing you're describing Trump...

    I don't know what is in Trump's heart but looking at his actions he has been the most pro life president we have ever had and that includes Reagan.

    When I had the opportunity to vote for someone I thought was better than Trump in the primary I did.  In the general election I saw a worse candidate in Clinton so I voted for Trump. (a decision I have never regretted). Sorry but I don't hate the man. 

    Welcome to the real world. All politicians kiss little babies and pander for votes. I guess it is a good thing my faith is never in any politician isn't it? I pity the fools who do have faith in either politicians or political parties. Trump was and always will be the better alternative to Hillary Clinton and he has done some good things that I credit him for.

    He's greedy and a fake.  That much is obvious.  He fires people who are experts and pretends to be the expert.
