This is another example of how incredibly Biblically ignorant you are.
Trump was not a Christian until just before the election, according to sources.
“Yes, there was an absolute moment that he received Jesus as Lord and Savior,” she says. “I have led many high-profile people to the Lord.” - Evangelist Paula White
And even though Trump was reportedly a new Christian then, the path to becoming less and less like one's former self can take decades. In fact, PROGRESSIVE SANCTIFICATION is a life-long endeavor.
What is Progressive Sanctification?
"The second stage of sanctification requires a lifetime to complete. As we grow in grace, we are gradually – but steadily – changing to be more like Jesus (2 Corinthians 3:18). This occurs in a process of daily spiritual renewal (Colossians 3:10). The apostle Paul himself was being sanctified even as he ministered to others. Paul claimed that he had not reached perfection, but that he “pressed on” to attain everything Christ desired for him (Philippians 3:12)."

In 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 the Apostle Paul wrote,
"Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God."
The renowned English Preacher Charles Spurgeon once noted: "If you are renewed by grace, and were to meet your old self, I am sure you would be very anxious to get out of his company.”
As will Donald Trump in time. Sure, he has quite a ways to go, as do all Christians. But at least we're saved.
And once again it is duly noted: "Trump is in office not because he doesn't have warts that many Christians and conservatives have noted and discussed, but because even with all his baggage he was STILL a much better choice for president than that lying, greedy, corrupt, immoral, left-wing, incompetent, cellulite-infested, walking gas bag Hillary Clinton."
People ask how evangelicals can call themselves Christians and vote for Trump? However, the real question is how can we call ourselves Christians and vote for Hillary?
And the fact is if there was a perfect Republican Christian candidate, people like you wouldn't vote for him anyway. That's how much you folks despise Christianity. And that's why Trump is in the White House.
So get a new dog. Your holier-than-thou mutt did not make it around the arena.
You tried that line before> So what's that, number 5 on my list?
5) Trump is really a Christian. He's working on it vewy hawd!
Any evidence that Dumpie Trumpie did any of this:

...or is he exempt? Trump is the guy, that on Thanksgiving, gave thanks for himself!:lamo
I can't wait for Christmas. "Lo and behold! On this day, unto us, a TRUMP was born."
I can't remember if you've tried this cop-out:
That one is a version of the message used by the radio preachers trying to get folks to vote for the amoral heathen Trump. As opposed to Cruz, no less (it started in the primaries after Trump met with Falwell Jr.).
It's hard to confess, repent and follow Christ when you're stuffing your pockets and banging porn sluts.
