Senator Bernie Sanders doesn't think Christians are fit
to serve in public office.
In a shameful exchange Wednesday caught on video, Sanders grilled
Russell Vought, President Trump's nominee for Deputy Director of the White House
Office of Management and Budget, about his Christian beliefs. When Vought
refused to disavow his belief that Muslims "stand condemned" because "they have
rejected Jesus Christ," Sanders became livid.
"I would simply say, Mr. Chairman, that this nominee is really not
someone who this country is supposed to be about," Sanders said. "I will vote
no."
Ironically, Democrats like Sanders
have been assailing President Trump for allegedly applying a religious test when
it comes to immigration. Yet clearly Sanders has no problem applying a religious
test when it comes to holding public office, something
specifically forbidden in the U.S. Constitution. What's clear
from Sanders' diatribe is that he believes only those who believe that people of
all faiths are going to heaven (i.e. universalists) should be allowed to hold
public office.
