https://www.theroot.com/trumps-former-pastor-he-never-actually-entered-the-chu-1832233472President Donald Trump is not a liar. A liar is someone who occasionally tells mistruths. President Trump is a broken fire hose of lies. Hes a broken slot machine of lies. Hes a lie conveyor belt.
On Monday, the president lied again, this time in tweet-form, claiming that America was starting to make a turn back to a time when Bible study was big in public schools. The Washington Posts Mark Chancy noted, there was no such time in American history.
But besides that, Trump, who has routinely portrayed himself as a man of God, had to deal with a competing tweet from an actual man of God.
According to HuffPost, Pastor David Lewicki took to Twitter Tuesday to state that not only was he pastor of New York Citys Marble Collegiate Church for about five years where Trump was on the member rolls, hed never seen Trump at the church. Not at Bible study, not a service. Never.

(33,643 posts)You're allowed to be on as many churches 'member rolls' as you like (although some churches may be like the Mormons and typically insist that you belong to one 'Ward').
Is there evidence that Trump has publicly claimed to have attended this specific church during this specific time window?
