I'm very looking forward to the day when Billy Graham and his sons will give their blessing to Donald Trump for President. After endorsing Mitt Romney, Evangelicals had to fix-up their website and remove their disdain for Mormonism.
Will the Southern Evangelicals remove their hate for Adulterers and divorced men? Will Evangelicals endorse a guy, who doesn't know a single Bible Verse and lies about going to Church and is Pro-Choice?
This will be a fascinating 6 months in Presidential Politics.

"You know when I talk about the Bible it's very personal"

"There's no verse you that means a lot to you that you think about or cite?"

Trump: "The Bible means a lot to me but I don't want to get into specifics"

"Even to cite a verse you like?"

Trump: "No. I don't want to do that"

"Old Testament guy or New testament guy?"

Trump: "Probably equal"


Seriously? I'm catholic and couldn't name you any bible verse. Does that make me any less of a catholic...no it doesn't lol

You don't even know John 3:16 ? Really? You cannot be serious.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
You cannot be a serious Christian, if you don't know that verse.

for anyone interested in the topic:

http://www.buzzfeed.com/daveodegard/...tes#.glxNe8LzQ

most of the picks seem to be based on speculation but still interesting. the bible does get multiple mentions ( including in a side link to hillary's favorite books ).

“The most difficult aspect of the prenuptial agreement is informing your future wife (or husband): I love you very much, but just in case things don’t work out, this is what you will get in the divorce. There are basically three types of women and reactions. One is the good woman who very much loves her future husband, solely for himself, but refuses to sign the agreement on principle. I fully understand this, but the man should take a pass anyway and find someone else. The other is the calculating woman who refuses to sign the prenuptial agreement because she is expecting to take advantage of the poor, unsuspecting sucker she’s got in her grasp. There is also the woman who will openly and quickly sign a prenuptial agreement in order to make a quick hit and take the money given to her.” -- Trump: The Art of the Comeback, 1997

See this is the problems with libs - especially you En - they answer a question with a question or continue to address their original statement - they never answer the question presented to them. You deflect and Dems have been doing that for years in the White House. So now a Republican deflects and they call him out - never bothering to look at themselves in the mirror.

This is why I question my party affiliation. This is no longer the Democrats of yesteryear, who had an answer to the question and could prove their point or argue the question - we now have a bunch of double talkers who don't mind spending money as long as it's not theirs and blindly accept what ever the party throws at them. They can't present valid arguments and deflect with every question asked. Have we gotten dumber or are you just trained better to follow your master?

Ah -exactly what is Adultery and what was that Bill was doing with Lewinsky in the Oval Office - or maybe you're too young to remember that. Better read up before making such stupid statements.

Only in the right-wing echo chamber is Donald's response (naming a book he's never read) a smart way of answering.

Only in a Democratic White House:

I did not have sex.

This is the first I'm hearing of it. I heard about it on the news like you all did. If I had a son - and last but not least What does it matter?

Come on folks - there's enough stones to throw on each side - your eviscerating Trump is going to make people like him more not less - just like with Obama.
