Nothing has so exposed the hypocrisy on steroids of the religious right like their support

for the Orange haired plastic one.

Trump has been married three times. He is not a regular church goer. He proclaimed he's never asked God for forgiveness. He's made flippant remarks about communion.

And yet he's the number one choice of the fundy crowd.

That's the one I see on FB all the time. That makes him qualified to be POTUS?
Also "this country needs a great businessman!" The guy who filed for bankruptcy 3 times and came out smelling like a rose each time?
Personally I'm enjoying how Trump-mania is making the "real" GOP squirm.

With the debt this country has, Trump's experience with bankruptcy is one of his more tangible assets lol

Trump is abut as far from fundamentalist Christian as you can get and still dare to run for president.
