I've often referred to myself as a long-lapsed Catholic. True enough, but I never meant it to imply any lack of respect for the historical Jesus. Whatever others believe, I consider him one of a very small handful of religious geniuses in human history. Setting aside the question of divinity, which to me is moot, I'd put Jesus in the same category as the Buddha and the Prophet Mohamed, But there's no way in heaven or on earth that Donald Trump belongs in that circle.
Trump's remarks today, particularly the one in which he referred to himself as the Chosen One, are simply outrageous. They show a much greater lack of respect for Jesus than do my views.
Again I urge you - read Eugene Robinson's evaluation of the current occupant of the Oval Office. Then contact your Senators and Representatives and demand implementation of the 25th Amendment.
