At one of Trump’s recent rallies, North Carolina I think, Someone in the crowd said something to the effect of ‘You’re the greatest!’ to Trump. Trump’s quick retort was, paraphrasing.......No. Not even close. You are wrong. Jesus is the Greatest. Always.

I saw an interview with Trump where he was asked if he could quote one verse from the bible, but he couldn't.

Wrong, amounts to a lie, not "couldn't" but he "wouldn't" because he's smart enough to know what the media would do with that, any personal expression. I'd bet Trump could refer to more passages than you could, any day.

Actually, if it's the same one posted here, that is a gross mischaracterization. They asked for favorite Bible verses. I'm not sure that I would have known what to say in such a situation. But here's what I might like to have said:

Well, it's not necessarily one of my favorite, but there is one that rather fits the situation I often find myself in. Jesus said, "'Don't give dogs what is sacred, don't cast your pearls before swine. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, then turn and tear you to pieces.'" Look it up.​

If the reprobate wont listen to you, just walk away as they are condemned.
Don't try to force them to hear what your saying. That is not peace come from God on them.

Matthew 10:13-15
New King James Version
13 If the household is worthy, let your peace come upon it. But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.
14 And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.

Matthew 15, the world will be offended, let them alone, God will uproot them. Their destiny the lake of fire.

12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?
13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

McGee tells a story of a Christian man put on the spot in a board meeting (IMS), not exactly a walkaway situation who replied to the mockers just that way.

But the response is not forcing anyone to hear anything. It's telling them why they're not going to hear anything more from you. Pretty much the equivalent of shaking the dust off one's feet, which would have virtually no meaning in our culture.

You have to know when to drop the subject or walk away, it is not your fault, not your failing God they don't want to hear the gospel.

Jesus never told us to become trained speakers, but Paul does mention as false, deceitful workers and apostles deceiving with their boastful speaking. 2 Corinthians 11

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.

Michigan and Wisconsin were called for Biden. Arizona and Nevada could be called today. That's 270. Regardless, losing two "blue wall" states means the election is effectively over. Absent a miraculous upset, former Vice President Biden will be the next President.

Correction. Massive voter fraud steals election.

Saw last night on cable tv where multiple Charismatic "prophets" were claiming that God is going to miraculously intervene and secure a second term for Trump. I wonder how that can happen, when Biden has now pulled ahead in all the contested states except North Carolina.

Maybe in 2024!
You bet would take a miracle of God to cause Trump to win now.

Lets see, maybe God will show the people they have made a bad choice in 2020.

Well, this calls for prayers since we haven't seen the last of it. If Biden wins, congrats to him but Trump stands a better chance of advancing the kingdom as he has shown these past years.
