What would happen if Donald Trump sat down with the Creator of the universe in a SoHo bistro?
The following statements attributed to Mr. Trump are not fabricated. The man truly uttered them. Those attributed to God are likewise genuine.
With whom do you agree?
Lattes are poured and chairs, scooted.
The discussion begins.
Trump: “I am a really smart guy. I’m intelligent. Some people would say I’m very, very, very intelligent. I know what sells, and I know what people want.”
God: “[I] oppose the proud, but give grace to the humble. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted” (James 4:6 and Luke 14:11).
Trump: “Nothing wrong with ego. Show me someone without an ego, and I’ll show you a loser. Sorry losers and haters, but my I.Q. is one of the highest – and you all know it!”
God: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches. When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom. But as it is, you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is evil” (Jeremiah 9:23, Proverbs 11:2, James 4:16).
Trump: “If you don’t tell people about your success, they probably won’t know about it.”
“Part of the beauty of me is that I am very rich. I’m really rich. Cash is king, and that’s one of the beauties of the casino business. And while I can’t honestly say I need an 80-foot living room, I do get a kick out of having one.”
God: “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil” (1 Timothy 6:10).
Trump: “Fighting for the last penny is a very good philosophy to have. I have black guys counting my money. … I hate it. The only guys I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes all day. Who the f–k knows? I mean, really, who knows how much the Japs will pay for Manhattan property these days?”
God: “Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God” (Matthew 19:24).
The conversation moves on to Mr. Trump’s boasting of his many adulterous affairs.
God: “Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with a forbidden woman and embrace the bosom of an adulteress?” (Proverbs 5:20)
Trump: “Nice t-ts, no brains. A person who is very flat-chested is very hard to be a 10. Oftentimes when I was sleeping with one of the top women in the world, I would say to myself, thinking about me as a boy from Queens, ‘Can you believe what I am getting?'”
God: “Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered” (1 Peter 3:7).
Trump: “[Women:] You have to treat ’em like s—t.”
“When a man leaves a woman, especially when it was perceived that he has left for a piece of a– – a good one! – there are 50 percent of the population who will love the woman who was left.”
“If I get my name in the paper, if people pay attention, that’s what matters. You know, it really doesn’t matter what they write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of a–.”
“It’s all in the hunt, and once you get it, it loses some of its energy. I think competitive, successful men feel that way about women. Don’t you agree? Really, don’t you agree?”
God: “Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for [I] will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous” (Hebrews 13:4).
The discussion shifts to Mr. Trump’s lifelong and, until of late, Democratic Party affiliation, Obamacare and his opposition to a ban on even partial-birth abortion.
God: “Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward” (Psalm 127:3).
Trump: “No, I am pro-choice in every respect. Very pro-choice. I just believe in choice.”
“I identify more as a Democrat. It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Hillary’s a great friend of mine. Her husband is a great friend of mine. I think Hillary is going to take it, and I think Hillary is very, very capable. Hillary’s always surrounded herself with very good people. I think Hillary would do a good job.”
“[Obama] is a strong guy who really knows what he wants, and this is what we need. What he has done is amazing.”
“I’m a liberal on health care. I like universal health care. As far as single payer, it works in Canada. It works incredibly well in Scotland.”
God: “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for [I] love a cheerful giver. Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need. If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat” (2 Corinthians 9:7; Ephesians 4:28 and 2 Thessalonians 3:10).
The meeting closes with a brief exchange on repentance and forgiveness.
Trump: “For many years I’ve said that if someone screws you, screw them back. When somebody hurts you, just go after them as viciously and as violently as you can.”
God: “But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. But if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses” (Matthew 5:44, Matthew 6:15).
Trump: “I don’t like to have to ask for forgiveness. Why do I have to repent or ask for forgiveness, if I am not making mistakes?”
God: “If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:14).
Trump: “I’m going to make America great again.”
God: “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin condemns any people. Good sense is a fountain of life to him who has it, but the instruction of fools is folly” (Proverbs 16:18, 14:34 and 16:22).
And so, God, Mr. Trump and their respective followers part ways, agreeing, for now at least, to disagree. (Note: Trump quotes cited and consolidated here, here and here.)
The Leftists believe in the Christian God, and refer to the Bible?
Smite me now O Lord.
Now they are speaking for God? They have just a few things to learn.
This is sooooo dumb and sooooo judgmental.
What a load of CRAP! Seriously?
Trump does not drink coffee.
Good compare/contrast post.
Not believe able. Not funny.
Coming from Trump or from God?

The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 (H.R. 2580; Pub.L. 89–236, 79 Stat. 911, enacted June 30, 1968), a.k.a. Hart-Celler Act, 1965
Section 202 of the Immigration and Nationality Act... “(b)(3) an alien born in the United States shall be considered as having been born in the country of which he is a citizen or subject, or if he is not a citizen or subject of any country then in the last foreign country in which he had his residence as determined by the consular officer; (4) an alien born within any foreign state in which neither of his parents was born and in which neither of his parents had a residence at the time of such alien's birth may be charged to the foreign state of either parent.”
Now please tell me, if the 14th gives citizenship simply based on birth on US soil, then how can one born in the US be an alien at birth? Even the Immigration & Nationality Act of 1965 states that children born to alien in the US are themselves aliens at birth.
Further, the Act goes on to say... “SEC. 203. (a) Aliens who are subject to the numerical limitations specified in section 201(a) shall be allotted visas or their conditional entry authorized, as the case may be, as follows: “(1) Visas shall be first made available, in a number not to exceed 20 per centum of the number specified in section 201(a) (ii), to qualified immigrants who are the unmarried sons or daughters of citizens of the United States.
Now let's go back to Sec. 202 ... (b) Each independent country, self-governing dominion, mandated territory, and territory under the international trusteeship system of the United Nations, other than the United States and its outlying possessions shall be treated as a separate foreign state for the purposes of the numerical limitation set forth in the proviso to sub section (a) of this section when approved by the Secretary of State. All other inhabited lands shall be attributed to a foreign state specified by the Secretary of State. For the purposes of this Act the foreign state to which an immigrant is chargeable shall be determined by birth within such foreign state...”
Now since Canada did not recognize dual citizenship in 1970, and the fact that Canada considered Cruz to be a natural born Canadian, per the 1965 Act passed by Congress, which is 100% constitutional in its language, Cruz himself, at best, is a 14th Amendment “naturalized” citizen.
Get real.
Another sanctimonius weasel speaks for God.
God loves everyone, including Trump.
Just more left-wing nonsense from Townhall.
o-u-c-h
I have read some mighty stupid articles on this site, but I would have to say 1 out of 3 this has to be the dumbest thing I have come across...
The problem is now days you have to wonder if all these bible verses are coming out of the New World Order Bible the NVI because they sure aren’t coming out of my bible...but of course a lot of people don’t read the Catholic Bible, just the King James Version...
So IMHO this article should be one of those used for ‘fish bone wrappings’ because of not only the media it came out of, it also includes the author of it which I have to wonder if he/she is still in first grade....

Oh how dumb of me, Doug Gile's op-ed is positive
*rolling my eyes*
ONLY when it serves THEIR purposes and even then they are highly selective and more often than not, take things out of context or apply THEIR interpretations.
It’s an op-ed. Get over it.
