He probably hasn’t slept that much. Even a bullet grazing can be incredibly painful. He might even be on medication that can make you sleepy. [/quote]

I can't believe they are giving him a total pass for this.

They screamed "UNFIT TO LEAD" when Biden had a cold.

Correct. Very liberal me and my very liberal spouse were watching the  convention on TV and he did indeed look down during a moment of prayer. He was faking of course because he doesn’t have a religious bone in his body, but he was not asleep.[/quote]

Why does it bother you so much that he might be praying?[/quote]

Why are you so deluded that you think he WOULD be praying for real? [/quote]

Why does it bother you that I believe he was praying for real?[/quote]

I don't care what you believe since you are an anonymous stranger. But I am bothered by the mass delusion that  has overcome the religious members of MAGA who seem to sincerely believe that Trump is a godly man when, in word and deed, he is the antithesis of one.

By contrast, MAGA vilifies Biden, a guy who routinely goes to mass every week and has been doing so for decades. They also make cracks about Jimmy Carter (those that still remember him), who is a devout Evangelical and "has taught Sunday school at Maranatha Baptist Church in his hometown of Plains, Georgia, since the 1980s." Why do Republicans tend to think that their presidents are religious but not Democrat ones? Partisan groupthink, that's why:

"Even among Biden’s fellow Catholics, partisanship permeates views of Biden’s religion. Nine-in-ten Democratic and Democratic-leaning Catholics say they think Biden is at least somewhat religious, including half who say he is “very” religious. Among Republican and Republican-leaning Catholics, by contrast, a 56% majority say Biden is “not too” or “not at all” religious. And while eight-in-ten Catholic Democrats say they think Biden discusses his faith “about the right amount,” barely half as many Catholic Republicans say the same (42%)."

So, MAGA Republicans have “mass delusion” because they don’t think what you think?  Maybe they see Trump in a very different light. Maybe they are aware of all of the kind and generous things that he has done for other people throughout his life.

Personally, I don’t have any opinions about anyone’s faith or religiosity. I can’t know what’s in someone else’s heart.  I don’t think you can either.[/quote]
