Trump refuses to name favorite verses from his favorite book, The Bible, because it's very personal

Trump is a shameless BSer. Listen to him pretend that he’s a big fan of the Bible in this clip when he clearly knows nothing about it. It’s an SNL skit come to life.

1. A conservative christian who won't talk about the Bible?

The Bible and physical labor are two things that FF45 is not familiar with at all.

[Doodley]

2. The world is laughing at him. His supporters think he's smart.

[Maeve]

3. "The one about making little children suffer for coming unto me"

Something out of Two Corinthians, I think....

He doesn't really know the difference between the Old and New Testaments, either

[coti]

20. Genesis 19:30-38

[Maeve]

38. Wicked!

I like that. It's twisted.

[juxtaposed]

4. his only favorite book is mein kampf same for his father.

[NCLefty]

5. He's the phoniest christian. He said he doesn't ask god for forgiveness previously. Which

denomination allows for that??

[ooky]

26. The only one he gets on his knees for is Putin.

[Guilded Lilly]

6. Old vs New Testament. "Equal". What a blatant idiot.

[dalton99a]

7. "The Bible means a lot to me"

"I know nothing about it"

[sprinkleeninow]

28. ...

A fraud proficient at fakery.
😫

[JI7]

8. he hates black people so that's enough for white evangelicals

[lunasun]

35. +1

9. If I was the interviewer, I would have a list of verses from the Koran

and maybe some movie dialogue handy and ask that asshole if they were some of his favorite “Bible” verses.

[A HERETIC I AM]

17. Exactly! Start quoting The Book of Armaments!

Ask him "Mr. President, how do you feel about the following passage? "O Lord, bless this Thy hand grenade that with it Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits, in Thy mercy." (and end with) "then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it." Amen. "

I swear, if someone would do that, it would just be so fucking perfect.

I'm betting he would have no idea it was from Monty Python & The Holy Grail and answer as if it was a real bible verse.

"Oh yes, that's one of my favorites!"

Fuck, but that would be so delicious!

[tanyev]

10. Yeah, the real problem is the Bible is one of those boring books that isn't about him.

[lpbk2713]

11. The Bible encourages to spread the word.

Not to keep it personal.

Trump is full of shit, as always.

[Newest Reality]

12. Not even...

The part where Jesus said you should hang millstones around the necks of children so they can suffer?

Or, where it says that they that are naked, homeless and hungry seeketh naught but prestige like the Heathen do, casting their needles like camels in the ocean?

[Totally Tunsie]

13. Nothin' but a bullshitter...

[FiveGoodMen]

39. And 1 in 3 Americans fall for it every time.

[HipChick]

14. Palin Response to What Newspapers Do You Read?

Any and all of them..

[Metatron]

16. Exactly what it reminded me of.

Watching either of those morons gives me a headache.

[ooky]

25. Can't get enough

[malaise]

15. Two Corinthians walked into a bar

and paused for a second

[yonder]

18. That response is similar to this old chestnut of his:

Total BS. Again.

[dalton99a]

21. +1. "Yeah, I read that one - whatever it's called"

[LastDemocratInSC]

19. For a favorite verse he would probably blurt out something he heard on TV

Such as "You're in good hands with Allstate."

[keithbvadu2]

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

To his evangelicals/Christians, Trump is so devout

[canetoad]

23. Jesus wept. nt

[pansypoo53219]

24. the 1 that says bathsheba was hot.

[demtenjeep]

27. full of shit

[Permanut]

29. Probably something from Adverbs or Galoshes. n/t

[sprinkleeninow]

34. I just nearly fell offa my favorite teevee chair from laughter! 😝

[Fiendish Thingy]

30. I bet Pence, as well as Mayor Pete, could name their favorite verses without hesitation nt

[Still In Wisconsin]

31. He has said before he loves "Two Corinthians..."

BOTH of them!

[sprinkleeninow]

32. The biblical account wherein a jackass speaketh? eom

[jmowreader]

33. Now, now, it's not like that at all

Y'see, his favorite verses are Leviticus 18.22 (thou shalt not have gay sex), Leviticus 20.13 (thou shalt kill anyone you find is having gay sex) and Psalm 137.9 ("happy is he who dashes your babies against a rock&quot . He also really likes the incest stories. But ya know, when you're president of the You-Nited States and you sit there claiming your favorite Bible verse is one that sanctions killing people for no good reason, you come off as a violent psychopath.

Now okay, I'll freely admit that "violent psychopath" is a good description of Trump. But his handlers really don't want to deal with people thinking...

[VarryOn]

36. He's clearly lying about this...

There's no doubt he doesnt read the Bible....even a little bit. Maybe , his sole positive trait!

[area51]

37. Maybe Donnie should pick this one as a fav quote:

Matthew 19:24.
