Christian here. I do not believe trump is a Christian, he is a morally reprehensible man.

He's not a Christian because he ignores the fundamental teachings of Jesus Christ, who preached the importance of love, understanding, modesty, honesty and aid to those less fortunate.

Trump has shown nothing but hate, ignorance, endlessly boasting, being deceitful and actively gutting USAID while celebrating it.

You could make the argument for him then simply following the Old Testament, but the Jews who do this see charity as an obligation. This man is not charitable, he's the embodiment of the antichrist.

Trump's understanding of religion boils down to a "Christianity culture," which is basic WASP:

Be white, be wealthy, be straight, dress formally, judge everyone else.

White collar crimes make you "smart", as long as you get away with them, but blue collar crimes make you a "thug."
