White-Cain: Many people don’t know about the upbringing of President Trump. He went sometimes three times a week to Saturday and Sunday school.

Or that communion wafers are not called “the little cracker”?

ETA: Or that "Happy Good Friday!" is not an appropriate greeting for the occasion?

Trump was such a handful when he was a kid, his parents shipped him off to military school. That doesn’t happen unless you’re a certified nightmare.

This is the look of a natural and godly woman.

First of all, Fred Trump likely would have been with his family and Fred preferred working over churching. Even on the week-ends.

Next, do you know which church Fred selected for his family? The Marble Collegiate Church in Manhattan, nothing local in Queens. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marble_Collegiate_Church

And the preaching of Norman Vincent Peale. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Vincent_Peale (He even married TSF and Ivana.)

And the message of The Power of Positive Thinking. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Power_of_Positive_Thinking

Instead of taking home the message of Jesus' humanity and humility, TSF was ingrained with the concept that you can do anything that you imagine if you hang in there.

While NVP wasn't exactly Billy Graham, congregants were left with a diluted concept of The Gospels, The Beatitudes, and the rest of it.

As for White's claim of TSF attending Sunday School regularly, it's a lie regardless of whether she or he made it up.
