Trumps Church Clarifies Involvement (Plus: #TrumpBible)

Published by Papa Giorgio

…in a statement to TheBlaze regarding Trump’s membership status, Marble Collegiate Church said that while the Republican presidential candidate has a “longstanding history,” he is not an “active member.”

  • “Donald Trump has had a longstanding history with Marble Collegiate Church, where his parents were for years active members and one of his children was baptized. However, as he indicates, he is a Presbyterian, and is not an active member of Marble,” the church said.

Eric Metaxas puts together the likely Bible Trump uses, to which I added a few from others via Twitter (h/t J. Giordano):

Donald Trump recently said the Bible is by far his favorite book, but when asked to share a favorite verse or two, he declined, saying religion was a private thing and he didn’t want to get specific. Many concluded he doesn’t read the Bible. But to silence his critics, Trump today shot off the following “25 of my favorite Bible verses”…

  • In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was TERRIFIC. And also YUUUUGE.
  • Look, I prefer Messiahs who don’t get crucified, okay? I mean, I’ve given a lot to his churches. A LOT. Face it, he let us down.
  • Moses. What a dope. Had to go into the wilderness. I’d have negotiated a deal with Pharaoh, day one. A great deal. The best.
  • And Jesus went out into the desert. But he should have invested in hotels there. I mean I’m killing it in Vegas. A LOT of money.
  • Nathan said to David: “You are the man!” And David said, “No YOU are the man!” And they high-fived each other. It was fabulous.
  • Take a little wine for thy stomach’s sake. And if you’re eating the Surf & Turf you can go with the red OR the white. Your call.
  • Jesus? Nice guy, but LOW, LOW energy, I mean, bleeding out of his hands, his feet, his wherever…
  • God took six days to create the universe & then needed a day of rest? Lazy & inefficient. Would have taken me three days. Tops
  • Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife. For a season.
  • He rebuked the wind and said to the sea “Silence, be still!” But Jorge Ramos kept talking and talking.
  • At the Last Supper, Jesus said to Judas: “What you must do, do quickly. And do it under budget if possible. Unheard of, right?”
  • The Israelites were illegal immigrants fleeing Pharaoh so they could have anchor babies in the Promised Land.
  • Why do the heathen rage? Because they want jobs. And I’m the greatest job creator God ever made. And then some. Am I right?
  • A sower went out to sow. Now, don’t get me wrong. I love sowers. But they’re killing us. They’re sending us their worst sowers.
  • A man went to Jericho & he was set upon by thieves. Because they have lousy security in Jericho. The Unions destroyed it there.
  • Judas? Bad leadership on Jesus’ part. Would never have happened on #CelebrityDisciple.
  • Foxes have holes and birds have nests, but I have duplexes with views of the East River. The Chinese are buying them like crazy.
  • You’ve heard it said, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,” but I say unto you that’s lousy negotiating. Why break even?
  • A good name is better than fine perfume. But nothing’s better than Trump Cologne.
  • A good wife, who can find? I found three.
  • Moses saw that the Bush was on fire but was not consumed, because face it, the Bush was low-energy.
  • A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown. But I was born in Queens, so who cares?
  • When Paul & Silas were praying, an earthquake shook the jail & all the doors were opened, because none of it was built to code.
  • A man named Ananias, with Saphira his wife, sold a piece of property. But they were the worst negotiators. They got killed.
  • And Jesus came to them walking on the waves and said, “Have you seen the polls? I’m like WAY ahead. It’s not even close.”
  • And Pharoah said to Moses: “Do you know how many Hispanics I have working for me?”
  • Love covers a multitude of sins. Sure. But you’d be nuts not to get a prenup. I mean, c’mon.
  • Then there came a tax-collector & I said “Good luck, because I’ve got the best tax lawyers. I mean they’re monsters. Forget it.”
  • And after the wind came an earthquake & he was not in the earthquake. So I’m like, c’mon already. Where are you? I’m a busy man.
  • Among whom was Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of Joses, and the mother of James & John. Three classy ladies. Tremendous class.
  • Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. Wait a minute…I don’t want to get that specific.
  • Hide it under a bushel? No. But I do keep all my Bibles in a very nice place.
  • Jesus multiplied the loaves and fishes and GAVE THEM AWAY? Terrible business strategy.

Selah.

The Forward Thinking of the party of Death ~ Hillary

Published by Papa Giorgio

Gateway Pundit notes the insane aspect of the above video of Hillary calling Republicans “terrorists” over abortion:

Hillary Clinton compared Republican presidential candidates to terrorists in her latest campaign speech.

“Extreme views about women, we expect that from some of the terrorist groups. We expect that from people who don’t want to live in the modern world. But it’s a little hard to take coming from Republicans who want to be president of the United States. Yet, they espouse out of touch and out-of-date policies. They are dead-wrong for 21st century America.

From the woman who supports Planned Parenthood baby organ harvesting.

In Gateway’s post Jim has a picture of the Islamic State blowing off the heads of captured persons. This has more in common — literally — with Democrats.

 

The Left Continues To Devour Itself ~ Pass the Popcorn

There are two other videos at Powerline, where the following is from:

Really, this story requires no analysis or set up at all. From the Seattle Times a few hours ago…

Black Lives Matter protesters shut down Bernie Sanders speech

A Seattle speech by Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders was pre-empted in a chaotic confrontation Saturday afternoon with a handful of Black Lives Matter protesters, who took the stage and refused to let him speak.

As the star attraction at a rally for expanding Social Security and Medicare, Sanders was just starting to address the crowd, thanking Seattle for being “one of the most progressive cities in the United States of America.”

That’s as far as he got, as a pair of women walked onstage and grabbed the microphone.

[….]

Actually, some commentary is deserved. That a Democratic political rally would allow “a handful” of demonstrators to shut down and hijack their event shows how deeply liberals have drunk the White Guilt Kool Aid.

[….]

Some presidential material. Once upon a time a candidate might have said, “I’m paying for this microphone you little shits.”

Pass the popcorn indeed. No extra butter necessary.

Mark Levin Excoriates Megyn Kelly’s GOP Debate Performance

In this segment Mark Levin deals with one of the main quotes Trump was accused of. Mind you, I am not a fan of Trump, but, the cheapness FOX displayed when they could have asked more serious questions was disappointing to say the least.

Which Candidate Receives The Most Money from Wall Street?

Another Campus Reform Hillary Bash! (See the previous one here)

Campus Reform Correspondent Cabot Phillips played “Candidates’ Cash” with young people on the national mall. After trying to guess which 2016 candidate has received the most money from four of Wall Street’s largest financial institutions, many of them were shocked to find out that the answer for all four was Hillary Clinton.

Jim Webb vs. Gender & Far Left Candidates (Hillary & Sanders)

Published by Papa Giorgio

Jim Webb steps into the race… will split the Dems between rational ones and the gender emphasis (Hillary) and the leftists (Sanders). Webb is the toughest guy for a Republican to run against.

Here is the Daily Caller’s reference to the above video:

Former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb pushed back on “Fox News Sunday” against the Democratic Party’s recent move “far to the left,” arguing that the Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders wing of the party is “not my Democratic Party.”

Webb told guest host Bret Baier the party “needs to bring working people into the formula.” The latest Democratic candidate in the race added that he’s running because those kind of people “need a voice.”

BRET BAIER: You mentioned the Democratic race. In the RealClearPolitics average of polls, you’re at about 2.3 percent, and well behind the front runner, Hillary Clinton. You have an uphill climb against this Clinton machine. Most political analysts will tell you that Democrats have moved resolutely to the left and that basically Hillary Clinton has renounced Clintonism, which really was the vital core of the center, used to be, in your party. In a party that seems to thrill to Bernie Sanders and maybe long for Elizabeth Warren, who are the Jim Webb Democrats?

JIM WEBB: I believe we can bring a different tone to the Democratic Party. You’re right. The party has moved way far to the left, and that’s not my Democratic Party, but in and of itself. We need to bring working people back into the formula. Next Saturday, in the far southwest of Virginia there’s going to be a medical clinic, a remote area medical clinic to take care of people who don’t have medical insurance. It’s out at the Wise County fairgrounds. I hope Fox will go down there and take a look at it. They’ll going to take care of at least 6,000… people with no medical care. They’re going to pull about 3,000 teeth. These are people who have been forgotten by both parties and, I think, they need a voice.

Young People Unsure How to React Playing “Candidates Cribs”
