BREAKING: Trump went after Texas Democrat James Talarico — and got a response he probably didn’t expect

Donald Trump tried to smear Talarico as an “insult to Jesus” over his views on inclusion and faith. But instead of backing down, Talarico met it head-on with something far more powerful — actual conviction rooted in his beliefs.

Speaking in a Texas church, Talarico didn’t just defend himself. He laid out what faith is supposed to look like: caring for the sick, welcoming the stranger, standing against violence and injustice, and putting people over profit. He framed issues like health care, immigration, and war as moral questions — not political talking points.

And it raised an obvious contrast. One person is openly talking about scripture, humility, and loving your neighbor. The other has famously struggled to name a single favorite Bible verse while using religion as a political weapon.

Talarico didn’t throw insults. He spoke with clarity and purpose.

Trump tried to attack his faith. Instead, he exposed the difference between living your values — and just performing them.
