...In the tweet, Sasse takes issue with how Trump "brags" about "many affairs." That's up for debate, including whether Trump had more than one affair. Trump wrote that he once considered an open marriage with his first wife, and in his book "The Art of the Comeback" he said: "If I told the real stories of my experiences with women, often seemingly very happily married and important women, this book would be a guaranteed best-seller."
Trump has also said: "I have too much respect for women in general, but if I did [write about my love life], the world would take serious notice. Beautiful, famous, successful, married — I've had them all, secretly, the world's biggest names..."

He was just caught in a lie about insurance, just this past week. He is therefore disqualified by Luke 16:10, which you used to justify condemning Trump. And I say that as someone who hopes Cruz wins the nomination.
I suggest you study Matthew 7:1-3:
Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Outside the Church, correct. Inside the Church is a different matter. Is Trump inside or outside the Church, currently? I don't know. I would hope so. But you know them by their fruits.
Um, Matthew 19:9 doesn’t say that:
And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
It actually says you CAN fornicate with another, you just can’t marry a woman whilst married to someone else. Mind, I recall there are passages that discommend fornication in the first place, but Matthew 19:9 isn’t one of them. Matthew 19:9 seems to permit concubines.
See below - Matthew 19:9 (among others) does seem to state that fornication outside of a marriage (i.e., concubinage) is permitted.
Jesus tells us to judge in Matthew 7:15-20. Its all about the context.
I doubt that you know ANYTHING factual at all about Trump.
And you aren’t God to judge another, are you?
Has he repented of his recent lies? You aren’t God and have no way of knowing what prayers others say. Pharisees -
Let me help you out here:
News flash to Trump, when you have a billion dollars and a comic strip hairdo, the chicks aren't attracted by your haircut or charm.
Maybe they're attracted to his intelligence.
Never implied I am. Never said I did.
People seem to take their Trump very personally. He's a politician, not a savior.
I disagree with your interpretation, but I’d point out that sleeping with another woman not your spouse while married is NOT forbidden in the Bible. Go look, there is not a single passage condemning the practice. You can’t marry someone else while married and in the New Testament divorce is mentioned as being permissible (Matthew 19:8), but nowhere does the Bible say it is forbidden. The closest it gets is in 2nd Samuel where you get the impression that the Bible is pointing out that it’s a bad idea even if it’s ‘permissible’.
Genesis 50:20 bears some study too - God can use the works of evil to good end. A case of “right things done for wrong reasons”.
And lying certainly isn’t a good fruit is it? Calling Senator Cruz. I’m amazed at the judgmental attitude of the Cruzbots who stick their head in the sand when it comes to their messiah - Cruz and his lying.
Trump is about as intelligent as his haircut.
And Cruz is a politician - not a savior. I don’t look to man to be my savior. I already have one and his name is Jesus.
Why would anyone who calls themselves conservative want Clinton redux in the White House?
Check your Church history - even within the first couple centuries AD, Church staff had concubines.
And you know this how? Facts will do just fine.
Let me know when you’re a multi-millionaire.
I’d point out that in modern society, *all* men end up paying for ‘it’ unless the couple goes dutch. I mean, seriously, have you seen the price of dinner and a movie lately? Let alone a hotel room?
