21. That claim is pretty much an impeachable offense

There's nothing "humble" about Trump, and I kinda doubt that if there was a Jesus he'd want this guy to serve Him...let's see here...

1. "Thou shalt not have any strange gods before Me."
Trump is attempting to elevate himself to the level of a deity. So he fails this one.

2. "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain."
Nope.

3. "Remember to keep holy the Sabbath day."
Nope.

4. "Honor thy father and mother."
That he was shipped off to military school makes one think Trump was disrespectful to his parents.

5. "Thou shalt not murder."
HOW many children have died in his gulags?

6. "Thou shalt not commit adultery."
"I moved on her, and I failed. I'll admit it. I did try to fuck her. She was married. And I moved on her very heavily. I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, "I'll show you where they have some nice furniture." I took her out furniture—I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn't get there. And she was married. Then all of a sudden I see her, she's now got the big phony tits and everything. She's totally changed her look... And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pussy. You can do anything."

7. "Thou shalt not steal."
Trump has stolen so much from so many, the contractors in New York City pad their estimates so they get everything they're owed before Trump tries to screw them.

8. "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor."
You want we should start with the Central Park 5, the birther shit or his campaign promises?

9. "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife."
There's not an attractive woman in America that Trump HASN'T coveted at one time or another.

10. "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's goods."
And as with the rest of the Commandments, Trump does this too.

Tell me again, without using the words "Hillary" or "Obama," what the hell Christians see in this asshole.
