Lordy.

President Donald Trump has repeatedly committed adultery. He's bragged about sexual assault. He's stated that he doesn't ask God for forgiveness.

This past October, Trump polled at 71% approval with white Evangelical Christians.


Many see the overwhelming white Evangelical support for Donald Trump as contradictory with the Christian faith, however white Evangelicals remain among his most infallible supporters.

Last month, a Fox News poll revealed that over half of white Evangelicals believe God wanted Trump to be President.

That's likely why, when meeting with tornado victims in Eastern Alabama, the President, upon request, signed the bibles of a few of his supporters.

Many were mystified that Trump would be asked to sign the book by which many Christians live their lives—and on the cover to boot. They did, however, have a theory.

Trump definitely didn't write the bible. Judging from his past words, he hasn't read it either.

When asked by Bloomberg Politics' Mark Halperin to name his favorite bible verses, Trump replied:

"I wouldn't want to get into it, because to me that's very personal. You know, when I talk about the Bible, it's very personal so I don't want to get into verses. The Bible means a lot to me, but I don't want to get into specifics."

Halperin then asked if Trump was an Old Testament or a New Testament guy. Trump responded, "Probably equal. I think it's just incredible. The whole bible is incredible."

Many believe Trump's feelings on the Bible aren't mutual.

Awkward.

AOC Has Mic Drop Response To MAGA Republicans Who Try To Mock 'Democratic Priorities'

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez issued a powerful rebuke against President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, pointing out why mocking things like affordable housing and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as "Democrat priorities" ultimately hurts Republicans.

Ocasio-Cortez, speaking during a CNN town hall alongside Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders, accused Republicans of refusing to work to end the government shutdown, stressing that the country’s health care system could collapse if Republicans refuse to meet Democrats’ demands in negotiations.

GOP Rep. Blames Coordinated 'Ruse' After Swastika Image Is Seen Displayed In His Office

Ohio Republican Representative Dave Taylor demanded an investigation after a swastika image was found on display in his Washington, D.C., office, and blamed it on a "targeted" "ruse."

Politico obtained a photo from a virtual meeting showing a distorted image of the American flag—its red and white lines altered into the shape of a swastika— pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, a staffer for Taylor. Beside it hung a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. Elia’s involvement in the incident, if any, remains unclear.
