Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) tweeted Sunday that he prays President Trump can be as disciplined in his discourse for the next two months as he was in the last two weeks before his election in 2016.
My prayer is that our President can be as disciplined in his discourse and speeches like last two [weeks before] his election, Grassley wrote.
Then we will be successful in next two months like he was successful, he added.

It is unclear what prompted Grassley's tweet, but Grassley has often implored the president to be more careful in his rhetoric and actions. Grassley earlier this month asked the president to follow Wall Street Journal D.C. bureau chief Gerald Seibs advice from his Aug. 20 column, where Seib wrote that the president too often steps on his own good news.
And the senator last week shot back at the president after reports that White House counsel Don McGahn will be leaving in the fall, tweeting to Trump, U cant let that happen.

Maybe you could go on Jim Bakker's program and pray with him for Trump to shut his gaping maw, then help Jim hawk some food buckets to gullible evsngelicals.

God, probably not so much...especially since that prayer request would fit the definition of sacrilege.
