I cannot let this one go with just a single post on this blog.
Here I go again. Donald J. Trump has crossed yet another in an endless array of lines one mustn’t cross as he campaigns for president of the United States.
The presumed Republican presidential nominee questioned the faith of his Democratic opponent, Hillary Rodham Clinton.
How in the name of all that is holy does this man have the gall/stones/hubris/guts to question anyone’s religious faith?
This is beyond every possible example of good taste imaginable. Then again, it’s Donald Trump saying it, which makes it OK to those who have glommed on to his candidacy. They, too, question whether Hillary Clinton is an actual Methodist, which she’s been saying for years — decades, actually — was how she was raised.

How does this clown profess to know what’s in another person’s heart? How does he get away with this kind of out-and-out pandering?
He spoke today to a gathering of religious conservatives, evangelical Christians who are trying to size this guy up.
Trump took advantage of the forum to question whether Clinton’s faith is authentic.
Unbelievable.
I won’t predict this will be the latest “fatal mistake” of this man’s presidential campaign. He’s made countless other such errors already, only to emerge stronger than before he committed them.
However, so help me, this guy just keeps demonstrating how unfit he is to become president of the United States of America.
I gotta call out your BS and hypocrisy on this one. You did the exact same thing against Trump in half dozen blog posts after his “2 Corinthians” gaffe. You said he was doing nothing more than pandering, meaning his expressions of faith were not authentic, and you cast doubt he’d ever read the Bible. As a teacher my job is to talk all day long, so I know how easy it is to say something wrong and even incredibly stupid despite knowing better. How dare you question the authenticity of his faith and then turn around and say this is a new depth. Maybe he learned this sleazy behavior by reading your blog.
I’m out. If you can’t live up to your own standards, I’m done reading how shocked you are that others can’t.
Cool! I hope that I’m able to enjoy John’s opinions without some mindless troll submitting his unqualified input. Goodbye and good day.
