Trump feels protected by the only god he believes him. Himself.

So very little, tiny hands then.

Jesus Christ himself would spit in her face for asking that question.

To anyone who says:

"Trump isn't a real Christian" or "he doesn't really believe in god"

1) How do you know? Are you the gatekeeper of Christianity?

2) What difference does it make when he will legislate to appease radical fundamentalists and theocrats?

Mostly because of his own words and actions.

Like, it's not complicated.

He was extremely lucky to have Hillary as an opponent.

This.

He was asked point blank about his favorite passage from the Bible and waffled so fucking hard he almost turned inside out.

When he had protesters gassed so he could awkwardly hold a bible up in front of a church, one of the people there asked him if it was his Bible, and he replied "it's A bible".

Plus, there's the whole "cheated on all three of his wives" thing, the whole "never been seen or photographed attending church" thing, and on and on.

Sounds pretty Christian to me tbh.

He isn't protecting trump, he just doesn't want to get grabbed by the pussy.

There is nothing Trump does that is out of sync with the attitudes of American Evangelical Christians, and that's who's driving the fascist wave Trump is riding atop. They're of the same ilk. Whether anyone thinks Trump isn't a "real Christian" is completely irrelevant. The loudest Christian sect in America holds him aloft.

He could have just said John 3:16

I'm pretty sure he thinks that's a wrestling thing.

That's your interpretation. Show me where the actual god came down and told you what the rules for interpreting the Bible are. You are correct and every denomination you differ with is wrong?

Maybe Trump believes the vengeance and slavery and forced abortives are the most important aspects of Christianity in the Bible. You don't know.

Leviticus 25:44-46

New International Version

44 Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. 45 You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. 46 You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.

I'm not the one covering my truck in both Trump and Confederate flags. Those people see something very appealing in Trump.

Numbers 31:1-18

New American Standard Bible

The Slaughter of Midian
31 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 Take vengeance on the Midianites for the sons of Israel; afterward you will be gathered to your people. 3 So Moses spoke to the people, saying, Arm men from among you for the war, so that they may [a]go against Midian to execute the Lords vengeance on Midian. 4 You shall send a thousand from each tribe of all the tribes of Israel to the war. 5 So there were selected from the thousands of Israel, a thousand from each tribe, twelve thousand armed for war. 6 And Moses sent them, a thousand from each tribe, to the war, and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war with them, and the holy implements and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand. 7 So they made war against Midian, just as the Lord had commanded Moses, and they killed every male. 8 They killed the kings of Midian along with the rest of those killed: Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam the son of Beor with the sword. 9 And the sons of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and they plundered all their cattle, all their flocks, and all their property. 10 Then they [b]burned all their cities where they lived and all their encampments. 11 And they took all the plunder and all the spoils, both of people and of livestock. 12 They brought the captives and the spoils and the plunder to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the sons of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab which are by the Jordan, opposite Jericho.
13 And Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation went out to meet them outside the camp. 14 But Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the commanders of thousands and the commanders of hundreds, who had come from service in the war. 15 And Moses said to them, Have you [c]spared all the women? 16 Behold, they caused the sons of Israel, through the [d]counsel of Balaam, to be unfaithful to the Lord in the matter of Peor, so that the plague took place among the congregation of the Lord! 17 Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man [e]intimately. 18 However, all the [f]girls who have not known a [g]man intimately, keep alive for yourselves.

Kill every foreigner except the virgin girls which are to be thrown to the soldiers to have their way with?

Sounds like Trump to me...

Agreed.
