Here's what Fat Nixon said about the evangelicals,

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

according to Michael Cohen:

Cohen writes that before winning the presidency, Trump held a meeting at Trump Tower with prominent evangelical leaders, where they laid their hands on him in prayer. Afterward, Trump allegedly said: “Can you believe that bulls--t? Can you believe people believe that bulls--t?”

1. I am totally NOT shocked!

[rzemanfl]

7. I am less shocked than you are. Of course I am gullible and can be

misled by a good comedian. So there's that.

[Nevilledog]

10. Can't believe you hadn't seen other clips by him....he's a hoot.

[rzemanfl]

15. I am culturally deprived.

[Goodheart]

2. One of the few things on which I agree with trump.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. But you're not pretending to love them or sucking up to them for votes.

[Goodheart]

6. Indeed.

[stopbush]

4. Well, it is bullshit, after all. But it's the lying and the hypocrisy of tRump.

No wonder he fits in with the Christians.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. Just another voting bloc he uses while feeling contempt for.

[Poiuyt]

8. Whenever I see those phony evangelical preachers laying their hands on trump in prayer

I want to puke.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

14. They're all phonies, and they're scamming people into giving money

they can't afford to give so those phony TV preachers can buy another LearJet while sucking up to Trump and sending him voters.

[mucifer]

9. If he has tapes it could make a difference. If not evangelicals will call it all lies

[Girard442]

11. Turns out neither Trump or the Evangelicals have any respect for their beliefs.

I feel sorry for the handful of Evangelicals who still think they can reconcile support for Trump with the words of Jesus. It must be painful to contort your soul that badly.

[blueinredohio]

12. He also made fun of Pence.

Don't remember where I read it but as I recall he asked someone if Pence made them pray or prayed with them.

[struggle4progress]

13. .

[Skittles]

32. OMFG

he looks like he is constipated AND trying not to pee

[malaise]

16. I'm waiting for Falwell's full confession

Get the snacks

[barbtries]

17. it'll be a good day imo

when an atheist can win office honestly.

[dalton99a]

18. Kick

[jaysunb]

19. They won't care, as long as he keeps abortion and racism as the carrot. Nt

[demosincebirth]

20. Nothing surprises me with this skagg

[Beartracks]

29. Skagg?

========

[demosincebirth]

30. Look it up. It's not a compliment.

[Beartracks]

34. Ha! You're right.

Had never heard it before... except as a surname!

======

[demosincebirth]

36. We used to use that, in the fifties, as slang.

[Vogon_Glory]

21. To his credit, Skinny Nixon (aka RMN) was a believer

Just sayin’

[Skittles]

23. why is that a credit

?

[Volaris]

25. Well compared to trump, is what I think was meant...

[Skittles]

31. I'll go with that

yes INDEED

[Volaris]

33. Yeah it kinda says a lot that trump makes Tricky Dick look not only downright sane,

But also makes him look like an outright libtard cuck by comparison lol. No forgiveness for his obvious Constitutional wrongs from me, but the clean air and water acts count for SOMETHING.

[Vogon_Glory]

22. There are times when I think that the Evangelicals would have done better to

worship a statue of a golden calf than to mindlessly fall in behind Donald Trump.

[RussellCattle]

24. Golden Calves were interior design elements at Trump Casinos. The born agains...

....loved them though they did resent that their gambling losses cut into their “prayer offerings” to the teepee preachers.

[ecstatic]

26. Sounds just like him. I can't believe how blinds trumpers are

They are going to feel really stupid one day (if they survive the pandemic).

[keithbvadu2]

27. Whenever/however Trump is finally gone, many republicans will have a retroactive epiphany.

[GulfCoast66]

28. As an ex-evangelical and current Free Thinker.

I find myself actually agreeing with him.

Can you believe they believe this bullshit?

They really don’t. That’s the hidden secret. At least not their grifting leaders.

[smirkymonkey]

37. Of course he has contempt for them.

They are fools and idiots and even a flaming moron like Trump knows that. I honestly wonder if these people even believe their own bullshit themselves. It's all just a giant scam.

However, I am sure they and he have followers who are true believers and I hope this gets through to them. I hope even they can see him for the charlatan he really is.
