President Donald Trump is not a liar. A liar is someone who occasionally tells mistruths. President Trump is a broken fire hose of lies. He’s a broken slot machine of lies. He’s a lie conveyor belt.

On Monday, the president lied again, this time in tweet-form, claiming that America was “starting to make a turn back” to a time when Bible study was big in public schools. The Washington Post’s Mark Chancy noted, there was no such time in American history.

But besides that, Trump, who has routinely portrayed himself as a man of God, had to deal with a competing tweet from an actual man of God.

According to HuffPost, Pastor David Lewicki took to Twitter Tuesday to state that not only was he pastor of New York City’s Marble Collegiate Church for about five years where Trump was on the member rolls, he’d never seen Trump at the church. Not at Bible study, not a service. Never.

1. I love to have Sarah 'guttermouth' Sanders explain this away...nt

[Ilsa]

18. She'll just claim the pastor couldn't see Donald because he was in the choir.

[Ohiogal]

27. Or that he didn't have to go to Bible study

because he knew more than the pastor.

[renate]

31. This is perfect.

...or words to that effect.

3. Trump isn't a christian, never has been, he is sociopath and uses religion to suit his needs.

He is trying to use religion just like Hitler used Christian anti-semitism to carry out the final solution.

[Scurrilous]

4. ...

[Initech]

5. And now all of a sudden he's somehow the godliest godlike man on the planet? GTFO!

Fuck you, Christian right!

[TrogL]

[HipChick]

17. Seems more like LOA...

except that it's not working...

[Brother Buzz]

19. The LOA part was the orange anus' mistaken belief that his association with Norman Vincent Peale...

gave him legitimacy, and that he should have been accepted by to the Manhattan elite; when you can't differentiate the difference between status and class, you end up with tacky.

28. Reports said he and Marla used Marble Church as a meeting place while he was still married to Ivana

I recall that NY society reporters and People magazine etc mentioned that he and Marla had get togethers at that church when they were first dating.

[thegoose]

29. Well, duh

if I was a person of faith I'd say he's the antichrist. But he's just the perfect lackey for this shitbag Repuke party.

[Blue Owl]

30. No place for a filthy heathen of his ilk

n/t

[mr_lebowski]

32. Unfortunately this doesn't prove he never went to any Church ...

You're allowed to be on as many churches 'member rolls' as you like (although some churches may be like the Mormons and typically insist that you belong to one 'Ward').

Is there evidence that Trump has publicly claimed to have attended this specific church during this specific time window?

33. To his evangelicals/Christians, Trump is so devout
