Russell Moore, president of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission called the Donald Trump presidential campaign “reality television moral sewage.”

Trump countered on Twitter by calling Moore “a nasty guy with no heart.”

Moore, in turn, responded on MSNBC’s “Meet the Press Daily” by saying he agreed with Trump. “I am a nasty guy with no heart, which is why I need forgiveness of sins and redemption through the gospel of Jesus Christ,” he said.

And so it goes.
