If you don't believe in that garbage - which by all accounts he doesn't - you don't just accept a bunch of weirdos touching you in a cult-like prayer. Trump doesn't even like being touched.

But from Trump's perspective, it helps him. So yeah, it's a phony photo-op not born of genuine desire to be assisted by prayer to serve the American people.
So in other words he is a typical politician.

He has to do that. It's transactional. He knows he has NO shot without something like 80% of White Evangelicals supporting him. In 2016 people who are NOT White Evangelicals, who were an estimated 74% of voters, voted for Clinton over Trump by an estimate 60% to 34%.

He does not really give a shit about Christianity. But he gives a shit about getting re-elected.
Donk pols do that. It's transactional. Donk pols knows they have NO shot without something like 80% of blacks supporting them. In 2016 people who are NOT minorities, who were an estimated 70% of voters, voted for Trump over Clinton by an estimate 58%-37%.

Donk pols don’t really give a shit about blacks. But they give a shit about getting re-elected.

Yes I do. Trump is a simple, fairly stupid person. And he's an open book with a history of well-documented thoughts and actions. You don't need a psych degree to understand how he thinks or feels.

The mind-boggling part is how many people defend and over-explain the stupidity of his actions. He's not intelligent and he's only in it for him, but his confidence and brashness carry him. That's it.
Well, being a simple and fairly stupid person yourself, it only makes sense you can understand how he thinks and feels. :coffee: :coffee:

To be fair, John, you (by your own admission) don’t give a shit about Christianity either.

How hard is it to receive prayer? Fuck sakes. It isn't about Trump. It's about the people praying for him.

Even Christopher Hitchens said he was a tiny bit interested in what positive "incantations" could do for his health.

And Dems don’t give a shit about African Americans but they keep pretending to so they can keep scamming them out of their votes....
