Dionne did forget to use the words "seems to" but let's look at what the article says about Dionne's claim that trump doesn't worry about whether "branding" or "politics can devalue faith." 
The question is did trump question Romney's mormon-ness and and the validity of Carson's Seventh Day Adventist version of Christianity? 
Let's look:
"I love Iowa. And, look, I don't have to say it, I'm Presbyterian," said Trump. "Can you believe it? Nobody believes I'm Presbyterian. I'm Presbyterian. I'm Presbyterian. I'm Presbyterian. Boy, that's down the middle of the road folks, in all fairness. I mean, Seventh-day Adventist, I don't know about. I just don't know about."
