DC Episcopal Bishop Decries Trump Photo-op in Front of St. John's

[Anonymous]

He's just pandering to his sucker voters - Evangelicals.

Are you kidding me? This idiot can't even string together coherent sentences for his photo-op. He's holding a bible for no obvious purpose than to talk about what a great country we are.

A reporter asked him if it was his Bible and he said, “It's a Bible." “We have a great country,” he said. “That's my thoughts. Greatest country in the world."

You know there is no bible that's "his" bible. He probably hasn't opened one up in decades. It would upset him too much to read some of that Jesus stuff.

Oh my God! PP, you win the most embarrassing and inane comment on the Internet today. You are breathtakingly stupid. I actually had to run and show my husband and kids your comment.

You explain so much about trump supporters.

You're just jealous that liberals can quote Sinclair Lewis while you Cons deal not in culture but in insults.

George Will quoted TS Eliot in a fantastic take-down of Trump. You should read it, if a literate read won't give you hives.

I don't like it when any pastors get political--and that includes the ones that support Trump and the ones that don't. They should stay out of politics.

Agree. That beautiful, historic church. Where's her outrage about that?

Wait... they had a "constitutional right" to vandalize and set fire to a church?

Maybe a pastor, like Jesus, cares more about the suffering of people than about things. Whereas Trump is literally the opposite.

Just as clergy members don’t like it when politicians use churches and Bibles as props in political theater, while behaving in ways that are not compatible with Jesus’s teachings. Hence, her tweet.

Do they "like it" when violent rioters use churches as props for their graffiti and vandalism? Is that somehow ok with them? Do you think Jesus is bestowing his blessing upon these thugs? Where's the condemnation of, you know, THE ACTUAL CRIMINALS HERE??

Someone remind me of that passage.

Conservative Christians have literally embraced the devil. They can all rot in hell together with their fake piety.

They will.

You know damn well that’s not what the police were breaking up, the vandalism happened last night, not 10 minutes before Trump came out.

The FIRST amendment gives the PEOPLE the right to peaceably assemble. Trump did what George III did.
