“I'm having a tremendous problem in Utah. Utah is a different place. Is anybody here from Utah? I didn’t think so,” Trump said, prompting laughter from the audience.

Every time he puts his foot in his mouth, apologists rush forward to say "He's JOKING!!"

How about that cute bit about how the Second Amenders will know what to do if Billary wins and has the right to appoint judges.  Wasn't that a knee-slapper?

Look.  I don't want to vote for the cankles.  I won't want it to win.  But Trump is making it REALLY hard...

I am very opposed to Mormon theology, but say what you want to about them as a people, they are hard-core rock-ribbed Conservative folks... And they mind the Judeo-Christian ethic a whole lot more than many Christians do.

That I admire, and am grateful for.

“maybe the only way I'm going to get to heaven.”

I'm convinced the late night talk show writers are Trump's speech writers. With Trump the jokes not only write themselves, he will have his guys do it for them...

Well there's a new twist.  A non-vote for Trump is a vote to keep him out of heaven.

The #NeverTrumpers are denying the Donald his rightful place in heaven.

If you knew me like all the long time members do you would know I am a solid NeverTrump and always have been. I'm just being honest with my opinion that I heard it as a joke. He laughed and the audiance laughed after saying it. Stupid joke, granted, but trying to say he was serious would be dishonest and petty.   Unlike other times he has had diarea of the mouth. Not an apologist, thank you very much.

I think the problem with Trump is that he is not known for being a funny guy. His public perception is that of a goofus who says a lot of stupid things.

Reagan would often make a joke and most people would know it was a joke. Trump can make a joke and most people have no clue whether he is being serious or not...

What are Bible's for if not to wave them above your head in a look at me effort?  Nobody ever convinced Trump to open it obviously.

You make an excellent observation here. It is very similar to how Rodney Dangerfield handled business in Back to Scool.
