You have to give him credit for knowing his audience. Evangelicals love that Christian persecution bullshit. It doesn't matter that it makes no sense; they think they're being persecuted by Starbucks cups. None of it makes sense. They will rally round him if he's claiming to be persecuted because of his Christianity, because it validates their stupid persecution fantasies.

What is *really* terrifying is how spotless a job the government has done of burying EVERY SINGLE SHRED of evidence that would show Trump was "a strong Christian" before it came up in his campaign. Damn you secret Muslim usurper Obama!

I don't think Bloomberg actually wants to run. Running would distract from all the quality time he spends swimming in his money vault. And then he runs the risk of winning. Can you imagine what kind of pinch that would put on his money time?
